The VA can help in deciding the right birth control method for each person. While there is no one "best" method of birth control, help is available to select the best individual choice.

All veterans enrolled in VA health care are eligible to receive contraception care and prescriptions. The first step to access contraception care services and birth control is to schedule an appointment with a VA primary care provider. They will discuss options for birth control and which method is right for each individual person. Most types of birth control found in the community are also offered by the VA. For many veterans, the cost of contraception is fully covered by the VA.
