When you weigh up different options for contraception, you might want to think about whether you want a hormonal one or a non-hormonal contraceptive. Out of the hormonal options, people often think of a pill but you may also want to consider alternative contraception for sale such as a contraceptive patch or a vaginal ring.
The two most common alternatives to the contraceptive pill are the contraceptive patch and the vaginal ring. They both release hormones to stop an egg from being released by the ovaries. There are some key differences between them that we have outlined in the table below. You can shop for alternative contraception on Medsforless and have it delivered to you discreetly.
| Contraception | How does it work? |
| Contraceptive patch | The patch releases oestrogen and progesterone. This prevents pregnancies by stopping the egg from being released by the ovaries. You put the small patch on your skin You change the patch once a week If used correctly – 99% effective |
| Vaginal ring | The ring releases progesterone and oestrogen. This tells the ovaries to not release an egg. the ring is around 5cm and it is a soft plastic you put it in your vagina and change it every three weeks it is 99% effective if used properly |
Aside from contraception that uses hormones, you may also want to consider barrier methods. Barrier methods include condoms and diaphragms which in addition to helping prevent pregnancy can also help protect you from sexually transmitted infections.
They are called ‘barriers’ because they stop the sperm from meeting the egg. Condoms are a good option for contraception because they are widely available, fairly cheap, and easy to use.
If you would prefer using diaphragms or cervical caps, they will need to be fitted by a healthcare professional. Despite this, key positives about these barrier methods are that they are reusable.
When you are deciding which contraception to use, you will want to think about factors such as:
For some options you will need to go see a medical professional, some barrier methods such as condoms you can buy in a supermarket, or you can order alternative contraception online.
With the side effects that can come with hormonal contraception products, it is understandable that many people may prefer to purchase alternative contraception. Here are some of the most common non-hormonal contraception products:
| Condoms | easy to use and find relatively cheap protection against sexually transmitted diseases |
| Copper IUD | 99% effective and you do not need to think about it for many years after it is inserted fertility quickly goes back to normal after removal it can be used as emergency contraception |
| Diaphragms | reusable immediately effective can be used with spermicide |
If you want alternative contraception buy online at reputable companies. Vaginal rings, and contraceptive patches are available at MedsforLess.
| Vaginal Ring | wash your hands before inserting the ring remove the ring after 21 days and wait 7 days before putting a new one on if the ring comes out on its own, wash it with cool water and put it back in within 3 hours |
| Contraceptive Patch | clean the skin and stick the patch on make sure it sticks on properly change the patch every 7 days after 3 weeks of using the patch, have one week when you do not use the patch |

You can place the contraceptive patch anywhere on your body as long as the area isn’t too hairy, and the skin is clean and dry. However, it’s best to avoid locations where the patch might be frequently rubbed by clothing, such as near a bra strap or the waistband of trousers or a skirt. Additionally, steer clear of applying the patch to irritated or sore skin, and never place it directly on your breasts. Following these guidelines ensures the patch stays in place and reduces the risk of skin irritation.
