Varies: The choice of what contraceptive option is the "best" varies from person to person. A lot of diferent factors will play into that decision....Stage of life, medical history, ease of use, failure rate etc.

Numbers vs ease vs..: The IUD has the best success rate (<1% failure rate) over many years & ease of use after the initial discomfort. The depot/inserts the next followed by the pill and condoms last (up to 20% failure rate/yr). Your choice must include your health history, preference and family planning.
