A member asked:
If i am 18, which birth control should i consider taking?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Many choices: Since it is unlikely that an 18 year old is in a long term monogamous relationship, they should be using condoms for protection against std's. The pill, the iud, and depoprovera are then all potentially good choices depending on circumstances and preferences.
