N2  - Family planning is one important consulting encountered daily in the medical profession. Choosing the contraception method among others should be based on both patients' and physician's choices. Multiple options of contraception now are available in the markets, each one has its unique pros and cons. So, profound knowledge about each type is mandatory to help the patients in that regard. We aimed to review the literature reviewing contraception methods, their mechanism of action, side effects, efficacy, and contraindications. PubMed database was used for article selection, gathered papers had undergone a thorough review. Against the common belief that there is a perfect contraceptive method, each patient has their perfect match instead. Taking into consideration efficacy, reversibility, side effects, accessibility, and usage complexity would, certainly, contribute to the determination of the method of choice. Compliance is a key factor that must be addressed and shed light on with patients during a consultation session where proper education showed better outcomes in compliance.
