There are many methods of contraception, among which the oral contraceptive is the most popular method for women. In foreign countries, the contraceptive is also the first choice for women. Experts say that birth control pills not only have a contraceptive effect, but also have a good preventive effect on some common gynecological diseases in women. Below are five major benefits of birth control pills for women.
1、 Protecting the endometrium and preventing menstrual diseases
Taking a compound containing estrogen and progesterone can reduce endometrial growth and withdrawal bleeding by 20 milliliters, while non users lose 35 milliliters of blood. In addition, due to the contraceptive pill's ability to inhibit ovulation, it can eliminate dysmenorrhea, menstrual disorders, and premenstrual tension after taking it. After taking it, the menstrual volume is significantly reduced, and the incidence of common anemia in women decreases.
2、 Preventing endometrial cancer
The Atlanta Centers for Disease Control and Prevention conducted a comprehensive survey of women (aged 25-54) who frequently take birth control pills, and the results showed that long-term use of oral contraceptives has a significant preventive effect on endometrial cancer. This drug can reduce endometrial proliferation, and the risk of developing endometrial cancer within a year can be reduced by half. The rigid Association for Disease Control, Child Health, and Human Development in the United States conducted a survey of 3500 women and found that the risk of endometrial cancer among women taking oral contraceptives decreased by 50%.
3、 Preventing ovarian cysts and ovarian cancer
Oral contraceptives can reduce follicles and luteal cysts, which can rupture and cause laparoscopy and laparotomy. When ovarian cysts reach 5-6 centimeters, about 70% of patients take oral contraceptives for 6 weeks and the cysts disappear. Research has shown that over the past 15 years, compared to those who have not taken oral contraceptives, ovarian epithelial cells have developed cysts, which are precursor lesions of epithelial ovarian cancer. Oral contraceptives can inhibit ovulation and reduce the occurrence of ovarian cancer.
4、 Preventing ectopic pregnancy
In recent years, more and more women of childbearing age have taken birth control pills, and the rate of ectopic pregnancy has significantly decreased. Only 1/10 of those who do not take medication take medication, which also reduces ovulation and filters out cysts. Contraceptive pills have the effect of preventing pelvic inflammatory disease, and those who filter out cysts quickly deteriorate. A prospective study in the UK has shown that oral contraceptives can reduce pelvic diseases by 50%, thereby preventing ectopic pregnancy.
