Choosing an appropriate contraceptive method to use after many children requires a good understanding of the advantages and disadvantages of the several options available in the market. Some of the factors range from affordability, effectiveness, convenience among others. From oral contraception, to hormonal injections, Intrauterine devices, to periodic abstinence among others, the truth is that there is no ideal contraceptive device. Some men have equally taken over the responsibility of family planning through sterilisation (Vasectomy) Whatever method you will finally decide on will depend on your personal preference with adequate guidance by your attending family planning health personnel at the nearest Family Planning Clinic to you.
