For my case study I have decided to base it on a couple who do not want kids but still want to have a healthy sex life. For a couple who want to enjoy a healthy sex life but don’t want to have any children there are several precautions which they can take.
One of the options which they have is contraception and there are many different forms of contraception’s available in this day and age, which include the pill, the male condom, female sterilisation, the contraceptive injection, the implant, the female condom , the vaginal ring this is just a small list of what contraception’s that are available.

The Contraceptive implants have side effects but nothing which is life threatening but some of the side effects may cause extreme discomfort and below is a list of some of the side effects which a woman may experience whilst using the implant. : * headache * spots * weight gain * increased appetite * breast tenderness * dizziness * depression * Irregular periods. * mood changes * nervousness * changes in level of sexual desire * Extreme Weight Gain

Advantages and disadvantages
