I chose daily - COC

Jeanne, 18, student

With thoughts of college in the back of her mind, fears of becoming pregnant loomed larger in Jeanne’s mind. After doing a little web surfing and talking to her doctor, Jeanne decided to opt for the pill, something a lot of her friends had experience with. She was going to be moving away from home, Jeanne thought, so the sooner she established her daily routine the better.

There are many choices of hormonal contraceptive available. Like Jeanne, you should do your own research and speak with your doctor about the advantages and disadvantages of the different available types of hormonal contraceptive and choose the one that best fits your needs.
