AbstractThis article outlines the basics of all contraceptive options available in the United States, providing providers necessary information to best provide equitable contraceptive care for women. Long-acting reversible contraception should be considered in all women as there are few contraindications to use. Levonorgestrel intrauterine devices have been found to be safe for use for longer periods of time, in some cases up to eight years. Combination hormone contraceptives remain popular and offer benefits beyond contraception; importantly newer formulations exist providing patients with more contraceptive options. Education regarding emergency contraception should be provided to all patients.Copyright © 2022 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
