  • Contraceptive methods with a failure rate of \< 1% per year includes the following:
• Oral hormonal contraception plus one barrier method during sexual encounter with a person who has testes (below). While typically oral hormonal contraception has a low failure rate, it is possible that the absorption of contraceptive pills taken by mouth will be impacted by the study drug and thus lower contraceptive effectiveness. Thus, people using pills as primary contraception must, during asexual encounter with a person who has testes, use a second form of barrier contraceptive (below) or must change to one of the other contraceptive methods listed above.
