What are the simple contraceptive methods?

If a man and a woman become a couple, they must have sex, and when having sex, they must also use contraception if they do not want to have children, otherwise there is a chance of pregnancy every time they have sex. Therefore, contraception is the best method of birth control, but many people find it difficult to find contraceptive methods. Many contraceptive methods are harmful to the body. If you do not pay attention to contraception, it is easy to cause harm to the body. So what are some simple contraceptive methods?

1. Safe period contraception method: contraceptive success rate 50%-80%.

Principle: Avoid sexual intercourse during the reproductive period according to the ovulation pattern.

Method: For women with regular menstruation, ovulation occurs approximately 14-16 days before the next estimated menstruation. It is unsafe within 3-4 days before and after this date, and the other days are safe periods.

Doctor's note: Only for women with very regular menstruation. During the ovulation period, there will be mild abdominal pain, bloating, transparent and long vaginal discharge, or very small amounts of bleeding, and a stronger sexual desire. However, other factors can also cause similar phenomena. Long-term use of this method is very unsafe and the chance of pregnancy is higher.

Male condoms: Contraceptive success rate 85%-99.6% (whether the correct method of use determines the contraceptive effect) - recommended for men

2. Male condoms: Contraceptive success rate 85%-99.6% (whether the correct usage method determines the contraceptive effect) - recommended for men.

Principle: Prevent sperm and egg from meeting.

Method: Before sexual intercourse, the man puts it on his genitals.

Doctor's care: It is the most commonly used method among young people. Its biggest advantage is that it does not interfere with women's physiology at all and can prevent sexually transmitted diseases. It is a very practical method, but you must remember that you need to first confirm that the condom is not damaged or expired, and it must be used throughout the process (it must be put on before both parties have contact), otherwise it is very likely that it will not achieve the contraceptive effect. The biggest obstacle to continued use is that no matter how the texture of the condom is improved, some people still feel that the film affects their ability to enjoy sex to the best of their ability.

Contraceptive ring

3. Intrauterine device (IUD): Contraceptive success rate is over 95% - recommended for women who have given birth.

Principle: Prevent the fertilized egg from implanting in the uterus.

Method: Placed into the uterus by a doctor.

Doctor’s advice: The success rate of contraception is still relatively high. However, the placement and removal of the ring requires certain operations. After the ring is placed, there may be a slight increase in weight, abdominal pain during menstruation, or inflammation. It is mostly used for postpartum women.

It must be noted: go to the hospital for a check-up before getting the IUD. Women with gynecological inflammation, irregular or excessive menstruation, or genital tumors should not get the IUD.

4. Oral short-acting contraceptives: contraceptive success rate 99.9% - recommended for most women.

Principle: Use drugs to inhibit ovulation and cause changes in the cervical lining.

Method: The first dose should be taken on the 1st to 5th day of the menstrual period, one tablet per day without interruption. The effect begins 14 days after taking it.

These contraceptive methods are very simple contraceptive measures. It will be convenient if everyone chooses these methods to prevent pregnancy. These contraceptive methods will not cause any harm to the body. When taking contraceptives, it is best to reduce the time you take contraceptives. Many contraceptives contain hormones. If you take contraceptives blindly, it is easy to cause great harm to your body.
