Different methods of birth control can be highly effective at preventing pregnancy, but birth control failure is more common than most people realize. Here is a chart displaying birth control failure rate percentages, as well as common risks and side effects.<\/p>\n

Birth Control Failure Chart<\/h2>\n

Note that the failure rates are for the average use<\/strong> of the method. Consistent and correct use may further decrease your chances. For specific hormonal birth control methods, the risk of pregnancy for correct use should be listed in the instructions\/details.<\/p>\n

When speaking of hormonal birth control, it is important to consider both the high success rate and the ethical concerns of the third act of the birth control:\u00a0 changing\/thinning the lining of the uterus to prevent implantation.<\/p>\n

Since this can stop an already begun pregnancy from continuing, it is said to have abortifacient qualities. This will be an action of any of the hormonal birth control methods listed.<\/p>\n

Below are brief explanations of how each birth control method works along with risks and side effects associated with each:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
