Abstract
All contraceptive methods can cause side effects, some of which may be beneficial. Women often discontinue or change their contraception due to recognised or perceived side effects of the method. Good contraceptive counselling should include discussion of side effects, and prepare women for what to expect. Many initial side effects may with lessen with time. Explanation and understanding of this can discourage early discontinuation of methods. The Faculty of Sexual and Reproductive Healthcare offers practical and evidence-based options for management of method side effects. Using proven management strategies, in a partnership with the woman, may increase acceptability of the method and reduce early discontinuation.
