Contraception remains an important part of efforts to reduce adolescent pregnancy. A number of safe and effective contraceptive methods are available for young adolescents, including abstinence, barrier methods, oral contraceptives, depot injectable hormonal contraceptives, intrauterine devices (IUD) and periodic abstinence. Sexually active adolescents should understand the benefits and limitations of the various contraceptive methods.
