Tiffany McBride is getting married in 3 months and is at a women's health clinic to discuss contraception options. Tiffany is 33 years old and has never been pregnant. She smokes a
pack of cigarettes per day and has frequent migraine headaches and expressed concerns about taking oral contraceptives. Because of her age, she hopes to start a family within a year. Which of the following responses would be most appropriate when counseling Tiffany?
1. A diaphragm or cervical cap should be considered, because they have very few side effects, although they are not as effective as hormonal methods.
2. Condoms are a good choice, because they are the man's responsibility and they protect against STDs.
3. Depo-Provera would be a good alternative to oral contraceptives and it has a benefit of being effective almost immediately.
4. Oral contraceptives are the most effective and simple birth control method, and there is no reason to avoid taking the pill.
