Tip from Maddie, 17
Condoms, pills, IUDs, and patches are all effective birth control options! But how can you know which is right for you? More importantly, where can you get access to birth control?
The United States has the highest rate of teen pregnancies of all developed countries! However most teens still do not know how and where to get access to birth control. Fortunately, birth control is more accessible than you may think.
In order to get access to birth control, use the clinic map to search for a clinic near you!
Regardless of gender, both partners should use a form of birth control. Have the talk with your partner and discuss what option is best for each of you. It's vital to protect yourself!
