Some people believe an IUD (without any hormonal supplements) would be the best. But like everything in life, it is not a one size fits all answer.

If you are a healthy 49 year old, who doesn't smoke; you can safely take BCP, use a patch, a diaphragm or even use a NuvaRing. If you have never been pregnant, an IUD may not be the best devise for you. This is a question to take up with your GYN or midwife, to truly find the best method for you.

A 49-year-old woman may benefit from using long-acting reversible contraceptives such as an intrauterine device (IUD) or contraceptive implant, which are highly effective and low maintenance. Another option could be a hormonal Birth Control method like the contraceptive pill or patch, which can also help regulate menstrual cycles and symptoms of menopause. It's important for her to discuss with her healthcare provider to determine the best option based on her health history and preferences.
