Introduction to common contraceptive methods

1. Contraceptive pills

There are various types of contraceptives, including short acting contraceptives, long acting contraceptives, visiting contraceptives, subcutaneous implant contraceptives, topical contraceptives, etc. Among them, the most commonly used short acting contraceptives, if taken correctly, have a contraceptive effect of almost 100%.

Long acting contraceptives are only used once a month, and some can be used once within 2-3 months to reduce the hassle of taking medication every day. The contraceptive effect is slightly worse than that of short acting contraceptives.

The visiting contraceptive pill is a fast acting contraceptive pill that is mainly suitable for visiting couples and also for newlyweds.

Subcutaneous contraceptive pills can be used for contraception for about 5 years at a time. They have not been produced domestically and are currently imported, making them unsuitable for widespread use.

The main function of topical contraceptives is to kill sperm, with the best effect of contraceptive film and the worst effect of contraceptive cream.

2. Intrauterine device

The contraceptive ring is currently the most widely used long-term contraceptive tool. The commonly used is a stainless steel circular ring, which can be used for contraception for about 20 years after being placed in one go. The disadvantage is that the rate of detachment and pregnancy with the ring is high. The contraceptive effect of wearing a copper contraceptive ring is good, with a low dropout rate and pregnancy rate. It is currently popular in various regions.

3. Vaginal contraceptive ring

The use of vaginal contraceptive rings is simple and effective, and they have been widely used in some regions.

4. Vaginal septum

It is troublesome to use vaginal septum. If you cannot master the placement technology correctly, it is easy to fail and cannot be widely used.

5. Tubal sterilization surgery

Tubal sterilization surgery is a permanent contraceptive measure that can provide lifelong contraception in one operation, making it particularly suitable for women who no longer have children or are unable to have children due to illness.

6. Calendar-based contraceptive methods and lactation contraception

It is difficult to correctly grasp the contraceptive methods during the Calendar-based contraceptive methods and lactation. Easy to fail, should not be widely used.

The three misconceptions about contraception are that contraception is a very important procedure in sexual behavior. In many cases, men play a greater role in contraception than women. For men, there are many contraceptive methods, but there are also many misconceptions. Improper contraceptive methods not only fail to achieve contraceptive effects, but also cause great harm to men's health.
