This study looks at how genes affect the way the body processes birth control pills. You take a low-dose pill for one cycle and have blood draws to measure hormone levels.
This trial tests a new contraceptive patch to see if it can prevent ovulation (the release of an egg). If you are a healthy woman looking for a non-hormonal birth control option, this study may be a good fit.
This trial tests a new birth control pill with a lower dose of estrogen and a different type of progestin. It aims to see how well it prevents pregnancy and if it's safe for women to use.
This study tests a new type of intrauterine device (IUD) called LevoCept that releases a hormone to prevent pregnancy. The goal is to see how well it works, how safe it is, and whether it is comfortable for you.

You may be able to join if you need emergency contraception or want to start an IUD right away and meet clinic and pregnancy-safety checks.
