The well woman exam is a perfect opportunity to educate women of all ages about their bodies. This is a time when the nurse practitioner may discuss issues such as intimacy, sexuality, gender identity, and the need for contraception.

Several options for contraception for women exist today. While condoms and vasectomy are pregnancy prevention options that are available to men, the responsibility for birth control is generally viewed as the role of woman.

Helping a woman to select the best method can be challenging but is a great opportunity to educate and empower patients to choose a safe and effective method of birth control that works for them.

Respond to the following in a minimum of 175 words:

• If a woman is interested in pregnancy prevention, what are her options?
• How does the age of a woman affect which contraception options are best?
• How can you help a woman select the best method of contraception?
