Preferred term

relational aspects of birth control  

Definition

  • Effectively using birth control to prevent unintended pregnancy involves a complex array of individual beliefs, attitudes, motives, and competencies. As relationships progress, however, birth control is more about decision making and negotiation at the couple rather than at the individual level, so relationship characteristics become increasingly important.
