Some people believe there are methods for preventing pregnancy without using contraception.

They're wrong.

• You can get pregnant the first time you have sex
• You can pregnant if you have sex during your period
• You can get pregnant if you have sex in any position, including standing up

Only using a reliable form of contraception as advised by your GP, or a doctor at a Sexual Health Clinic or another Health Worker, e.g. an adviser at a Bodyzone, will provide any useful protection against pregnancy.

FACT: The only form of contraception that also provides protection against Sexually Transmitted Infections is a condom.
