PREGNANCY
PREVENTION
&
Contraceptive Options
TEENAGE PREGNANCY
3 in 10 teen American girls will get pregnant at least once before age 20. That’s
nearly 750,000 teen pregnancies every year.
Almost 50% of teens have never considered how a pregnancy would affect their
lives.
Parenthood is the leading reason that teen girls drop out of school. More than
50% of teen mothers never graduate from high school.
Less than 2% of teen moms earn a college degree by age 30.
8 out of 10 teen dads don’t marry the mother of their child.
A sexually active teen who doesn’t use contraceptives has a 90% chance of
becoming pregnant within a year.
CONTRACEPTION
Contraception is the deliberate use of techniques in order to prevent pregnancy.
There are a number of contraceptive methods.
We can divide contraception methods into four categories:
-
Barrier Methods
-
Hormonal Methods
-
Behavioral Methods
-
Other Methods
Having sexual intercourse without any form of contraception is only acceptable if
pregnancy is desired.
WHAT CAN REDUCE THE
EFFECTIVENESS OF CONTRACEPTION?
Ignorance of the correct use of a method
Negative beliefs about using a method
Lack of partner involvement
Forgetfulness
Deciding that “this one time won’t matter”

SOME QUESTIONS TO ASK WHEN
CHOOSING WHICH
CONTRACEPTIVE METHOD TO USE
How would an unplanned pregnancy affect my life?
How effective is each method of contraception?
How much money am I willing/able to spend on contraceptives?
How much does each method cost?
How at risk am I to contracting a Sexually Transmitted Infection?
Which contraception methods prevent STIs?

Approximate Cost per Year for 100 Occurances of Intercourse
*IUDs, Implants, and Diaphragms all have higher initial costs than displayed here because they can be used for multiple years.
**Sterilization costs are high but the procedures are permanent so it is only a one time expense.

Number of Women (Out of 100) Who Typically Become Pregnant
*Some of the methods on this list are difficult to see (such as implant and IUD - Mirena) because the have very low failure rates.
The only methods with absolute zero failure rates are abstinence and outercourse.
CONTRACEPTION AND STI S
Most contraceptive methods provide NO protection from
STIs.
Both male and female condoms give some protection from
STIs.
Cervical barrier methods, such as a diaphragm, give some
protection from bacterial STIs.
The only method that guarantees protection from STIs is
abstinence.
THE ABC’S OF STI
PREVENTION
A - Abstinence: Sex is worth the wait. Abstinence is the best method to
preventing both pregnancy and STIs. Commit yourself to waiting until marriage.
If both partners “save themselves” for each other, there will be zero risk of
Sexually Transmitted Infections within the relationship.
B - Be faithful: Sex is best reserved for marriage, or for adults in committed
long-term relationships. Having multiple sexual partners is one of the strongest
predictors of becoming infected with an STI. Stay faithful to your partner, and no
one else, to avoid devastating infections.
C - Condom use: If you do choose to be sexually active, always wear a condom.
Using one can provide some protection from STIs, as well as helping to prevent
pregnancy.
