Hormone Free: Hormone free birthcontrol is a method of bc that does not give you doses of hormones. Many contraceptives, like the pill, work by giving you a constant dose of hormones that interferes with the natural rise and fall of the hormones that causes ovulation. Hormone free contraceptives find other ways of contraception, the simplest of which is a condom.

Several options : Essure is the best option if you are looking for a permanent option. Paragard iud is a hormone free iud that can stay inside up to ten years. Diaphragms are not as popular anymore but effective when used correctly. Condoms are always another option too.
