 
Choosing an effective and reliable method of contraception is an ongoing process rather than a one-off decision. Women and couples may switch contraceptives as a result of negative experiences or simply because their needs have changed.
Factors influencing the choice of contraception include:
- Age and lifestyle.
- Whether or not the woman or couple have or want children.
- Whether or not they have completed their family.
- General health.
- The strength of the motivation to avoid pregnancy.
- The need for protection against sexually transmitted diseases.
Research also suggests that women and couples want their contraception to be:
- 100 percent effective.
- Not associated with side effects.
- Independent of intercourse.
- Fully reversible.
 Organon is recognized as a world leader in contraception, and remains one of only three pharmaceutical companies substantially involved in research and development into new contraceptive methods. This includes a hormonal contraceptive for men, trials of which are underway in the USA and Europe. From different forms of the oral contraceptive pill, through to monthly vaginal rings and an implant offering protection for up to 3 years, Organon already offers users a wide choice of effective, innovative and attractive methods of contraception.
