The birth control shot, known as Depo Provera, is a hormonal injection that protects against pregnancy for three months. For the typical couple, it is more effective than the birth control pill -- only 3% of users get pregnant in a year.
Pros: Only injected four times per year, highly effective.
Cons: Cost (about $240 per year), may cause spotting and other side effects. Doesn’t protect against STDs
