Birth control or contraception is a process or technique for the prevention of pregnancy by means of medication, device, or method, that blocks, or alters, one or more of the processes of reproduction in such a way that sexual union can occur without impregnation. (Mosby's Medical Nursing & Allied Health Dictionary, 2002)
