What is the best type of birth control?
Using a condom while on birth control is the safest after abstinence due to the fact that it prevents diseases and pregnancy.

Since abstinence is very unlikely to be a good method of birth control after one starts having sex - including married couples who don't want to conceive immediately or those who have had a child and aren't ready for another - the best thing for you to do is have a talk with your doctor or family planning counselor, about what method works best for your lifestyle.
