Dear Madam. The pill is one of the best choices for contraception. The third generation pills (those present in most countries nowadays) seem to be safe enough to take as long as you need to. If you need a 'rest' as you said, you may use the condom for a while, then back to it. Injectables (shots) may be another alternative, once every 1 or 3 months. I have not enough information to support male pills as a contraceptive.Reviewed by: Patricia Fawver Ph.D. in Sexology
