Birth control can refer to a variety of ways of limiting or avoiding pregnancy. It has multiple related sub-topics.
- Contraception (medical methods): forms of pregnancy prevention that include barrier contraceptives (condoms, cervical caps, etc.), birth control pills or patches (i.e, hormonal contraceptives), and IUD's (intrauterine devices) [e]
- Sterilization (surgical): Add brief definition or description
- Desexing operation: the spaying and neutering of animals by surgery, leaving a male or female animal unable to reproduce and with lowered sex hormone levels [e]
- Natural family planning: the least reliable form of birth control, based on abstinence during the days of the month when the female is ovulating, whereby one in five women will likely become pregnant if sexually active and using only this method [e]
- Christian views on contraception: there is wide variation, with the Catholic Church completely rejecting it, and Protestant groups running the gamut between complete disapproval and complete acceptance, and Quakers having no collective opinion at all [e]
