The pill is the most famous contraceptive method beside the condom. It has a positive image both with women taking it for the first time as with women taking it again after an interruption: they appreciate its efficacy and its easy use. They consider a potential weight increase as a major disadvantage of the pill but do not fear serious health risks. Younger women are significantly more concerned by the lack of protection from AIDS. Young women start their "contraception carrier" with the condom and switch to the pill later. Middle-aged women had usually chosen the pill as first contraception method. The quality of life with the pill is considered as positive, especially its effects on skin and menses.
