Contraception - Women with disabilities

Women with disabilities may require special attention
to reproductive and contraceptive needs. OCPs are
generally safe and effective. Barrier methods may be
difficult to use depending upon the woman’s and/or
her partner’s degree of dexterity and motor function.
Injectable or subdermal progesteronal agents, and
IUDs are efficacious and practical. Sterilization may
be appropriate if children are not desired.
