A contraceptive is a birth control device. There are two categories of contraceptives: Barrier and Hormonal contraceptives. No device is a 100% effective in preventing pregnancy - the only 100% effective way to prevent pregnancy is through abstinence. Contraception is the use of a contraceptive. Contraceptives
Not to get pregnant when sexually active is the main reason. Some people think they help reduce the risk of contracting an STD. However, they are wrong. There is only one contraceptive that helps reduce the risk of getting an STD and that is the condom. Give me some reasons why a person would use a contraceptive device?
Why do some people want to wait a couple of years after they are married before they have children? People that are married and want to wait to have children may choose to use a contraceptive device to help reduce the risk of pregnancy. When you get married do you want to have kids right away?
