ABSTRACT

An overview of current and future contraceptive methods available to the adolescent is presented. Emphasis is given to oral contraceptives, including low-dose monophasics and triphasics. Current research confirms the efficacy and safety or oral contraceptives for teenagers. Other methods are reviewed, such as the mini-pill, barrier contraceptives (including the cervical cap and female condom), injectable contraceptives, hormonal contraceptive implants, the vaginal ring, postcoital contraception, periodic abstinence, gossypol, and others. Though abstinence is the best contraceptive method for adolescents, contraceptive technology of the 1990s presents clinicians and sexually active youth with many additional options.
