- Birth order - The phrase birth order is defined as a person's rank by age among his or her siblings. Birth order is commonly believed to have a profound and lasting effect on psychological development.
- Fraternal birth order and sexual orientation - A correlation between fraternal birth order and sexual orientation has been suggested by recent research. Referred to in psychology as the fraternal birth order effect, the observation is that the more older brothers a man has, the greater the probability is that he will have a homosexual sexual orientation.
- Birth control - Birth control, sometimes synonymous with contraception, is a regimen of one or more actions, devices, or medications followed in order to deliberately prevent or reduce the likelihood of pregnancy or childbirth.

- Acoemetae - Acoemetae (or "Acoemeti") was an order of monks in the 5th century, who by turns, kept up a divine service day and night. The order was founded about the year 400, by one Alexander, a man of noble birth, who fled from the court of Byzantium to the desert, both from love of solitude and fear of episcopal honours.
- IPLEDGE - The iPLEDGE program is a mandatory distribution program in the United States for isotretinoin (commonly sold as Accutane), intended to prevent the use of the drug during pregnancy due to the high risk of birth defects (see Isotretinoin#Teratogenicity (Birth Defects)). As of March 1, 2006, patients and their doctors and pharmacists are required by the US Food and Drug Administration to register and use a web site in order to receive this medication.
