How to use contraception correctly and effectively

There are many kinds of contraceptive methods in daily life. We usually see condoms and contraceptives, but some methods may not be suitable for people of every age. Now there are many new contraceptive methods, which can reduce damage to our body and greatly enhance the effect of contraception. So let us learn about how to prevent pregnancy correctly and effectively.

1. Intrauterine contraceptive device (IUD) An intrauterine contraceptive device (IUD) is a contraceptive device placed in the uterine cavity, which achieves the purpose of abortion and contraception through mechanical stimulation and interference of chemical substances. There are four types of IUDs: inert, copper-containing, drug-releasing, and progestin-releasing. Intrauterine devices are most suitable for long-term contraception, birth control and breastfeeding women. Advantages: The contraceptive effect of the IUD is local, does not affect breastfeeding and sexual life, and does not interfere with endocrine. It takes effect quickly after placement and disappears immediately after removal. Metal IUDs can be placed for 8 to 10 years, and plastic IUDs can be placed for 3 to 5 years. It has the advantages of being long-lasting and low-cost. Disadvantages: IUDs also have certain shortcomings, such as they have no protection against sexually transmitted diseases. In addition, not every woman is suitable for the intrauterine device. Some women will experience increased menstrual flow and prolonged menstrual period after the device is inserted. A small number of women may be allergic to copper, so this method of contraception is not suitable for them.

2. Steroid hormone contraception Steroid hormones produce contraceptive effects by interfering with the hypothalamus-anterior pituitary-ovary axis and directly acting on target organs such as the endometrium, cervix and fallopian tubes. According to the usage and administration route of steroid hormone contraceptives, they can be divided into oral contraceptives, contraceptive injections, subcutaneous implants, etc. Combined contraceptive pills (oral and injectable) are suitable for women of all ages, marital and childbearing ages, and women with irregular menstruation, heavy menstrual flow, and dysmenorrhea; subcutaneous implants are suitable for women who are not suitable for combined contraceptive pills due to concerns about the cardiovascular effects of estrogen; progestin contraceptive injections are suitable for breastfeeding women and women with endometriosis.

The above is how to use correct and effective contraceptive methods. Choosing a contraceptive method that suits you is the best. Only by maintaining a healthy lifestyle can you ensure your physical health. In order to avoid unexpected events, it is recommended that young men and women must take protective measures and take their own contraceptive measures. This is a way to ensure their own health.
