Q.
I've been on the Pill for years, but there seem to be so many options out there now that I’m thinking I should switch. How can I decide which method is right for me?
A.
I'm delighted to hear that you're thinking about this very issue! Too many women stick to the same contraception they've been using since they became sexually active. This is slightly neglectful because there could be some other much more effective approach. I feel you can't beat a face-to-face consultation with your health care provider, who can look at your lifestyle and needs and give you a more thorough evaluation of what would work for you. And depending on how many years you’re talking about, your doc may want you to give the Pill a rest.
