Other methods include intrauterine devices (IUDs), implants, and natural family planning techniques. It's important to choose a method based on factors like safety, effectiveness, availability, and personal preferences. Most contraceptives do not protect against sexually transmitted infections (STIs), so using condoms is recommended for additional protection.
