What is a contraceptive needle?
Contraceptive needles are a method of contraception for women and can be used as a contraceptive drug. It is only through injection to achieve the purpose of contraception. The long-acting contraceptive needle is mainly Progestogen, and can be matched with a small amount of estrogen. Its contraceptive principle is very simple. It is mainly to inhibit ovulation of women or change the nature of endometrium and cervical mucus, so that the Zygote is not easy to implant. Its contraceptive effect is good, and it can achieve the purpose of long-term contraception. But it's not a one-time solution, it depends on the specific type of contraceptive injection, some can be administered for one month, while others can be administered for three months.
What are the side effects of contraceptive needles?
The contraceptive effect of contraceptive needles is relatively good, but side effects cannot be ignored. When injecting, it is very likely to cause permanent baldness and atrophy at the injection site. Or there may be a possibility of depigmentation, so it is important to carefully choose the injection location. After injecting a contraceptive needle, it may affect the woman's mental state. It can make women's mental state worse, and even lead to psychological problems. Sometimes it can also affect women's breast health, making women's breasts appear lumps. If diabetes patients choose this method of contraception, it is likely to lead to Acromegaly, but it is not inevitable that these side effects will occur when using this method of contraception. The incidence of these side effects is relatively low. However, one should not take it lightly, and it is best not to choose a contraceptive needle for long-term contraception.
What aspects do you need to pay attention to when using contraceptive needles?
1. Choose a legitimate institution
When injecting contraceptives, it is important to go to a reputable hospital or gynecological clinic. You cannot go to unqualified small clinics. Contraceptive needles must have a clear origin and guaranteed quality. Otherwise, not only will the contraceptive effect be poor, but it will also affect one's own health.
2. Pay attention to breast health
Some women may experience lumps in their breasts during the use of contraceptive needles, so it is necessary to go to the hospital for examination in a timely manner. If there is indeed a problem with the breast, the medication should be stopped immediately.
3. Cannot exceed the expected dose
When using contraceptive needles, do not let them stack up. Do not inject too much just because you want the contraception to last longer, as this can easily lead to side effects. Women may experience menstrual disorders, poor mood, breast lumps, and other discomfort.
4. If there is an abnormal situation, go to the hospital immediately
There is no contraceptive method with a 100% safety rate and no side effects in this world, and the same applies to contraceptive needles. When using contraceptive needles, it is important to pay attention to one's own physical condition. If an abnormal situation occurs, you should immediately go to the hospital for examination without delay.
