Modern contraceptives are very effective when correctly used and, thus, effective counselling regarding contraceptive options are key components of adolescent health care. Emergency contraception should routinely be included in discussions about contraception. Among the many methods available on the market, long-acting reversible contraceptives have higher efficacy, higher continuation rates and higher satisfaction rates compared with short-acting contraceptives among the adolescents who choose to use them.
