Non-hormonal contraceptives do not involve the use of hormones. These include barrier methods, such as condoms and diaphragms, or surgical methods like sterilisation.

These include male condoms, female condoms, diaphragms and caps.

Natural methods involve avoiding sexual intercourse around the time of ovulation to reduce the likelihood of pregnancy. Surgical methods, such as a vasectomy or sterilisation, involve surgery to cut or block parts of the male or female reproductive system.
