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

We take tablets all the time.

It's like taking a vitamin.

Exactly.

You have headache, you take a tablet.

You have a cold, you take a tablet.

You have whatever, you take a tablet.

And so that's very normal.

It's not this big logistical step of...

an IUD, for example, and having to get it in.

So I think that plays a big role as well.

Yes.

Yes, kind of.

So when we talk about efficacy for contraceptive methods, we talk about efficacy in two ways.

So there's perfect use and that's how that method is used perfectly.

And it's usually in a lab environment.

It's not really representative of real life.

And then we talk about typical use, so how it's actually used in real life.

So for a method like the IUD, we only have perfect use rates of ID because once it's in, there is nothing you, the person, can do that will stop it working, which is why they're also super effective.

It doesn't rely on you doing anything.
