My To-do List

I don’t want to have children right now. Do I need a reproductive life plan?

Not having a baby takes some healthy planning too. Even if you’re not planning a pregnancy right now, it is important to think about your future.

A reproductive life plan can help you identify birth control methods and safer sex practices that will not only prevent pregnancy now, but will also protect your sexual health and fertility.

You may also be interested in reading more about birth control options and preventing STIs.

Remember that your reproductive life plan can change. Planning to be healthy helps to keep your options open.
