Steph & Laura · An explainer on different contraception - with Dr Jacqueline Coombe · 16 Jun 2026 podcast

Yeah, it's so true.

Like it's a similar experience but it's different for everyone and it's great to listen to other people's stories but also that story is not necessarily your story.

Yeah.

So the pill and condoms are the most commonly used contraceptive methods in Australia by far.

They outstrip everything else basically.

Condoms are really good because they're the only method that prevents against STIs.

So if that's important for you, they're a good one to use.

Um, we also have something called a vaginal ring, which is called a NuvaRing in Australia.

Um, the NuvaRing, it's like a small circle.

It looks like a hairband.

Okay.

Um, and it's like kind of squishy.

It's plasticky.

I'm not sure if it's actually made of plastic, but it's like kind of squishy.

You insert it into your vagina, leave it there for three weeks and then take it out.

Have a period, put a new one in.

Oh.

Yeah, so it works.

It's the same kind of hormones as a pill, so it works like the pill.

It's a good option for if you like the pill but don't like taking it every day.
