What are the common contraceptive methods?

Many female friends have a poor sense of self-protection. If they do not take the correct contraceptive methods during sexual intercourse, it is easy to have an accidental pregnancy. In fact, there are many common contraceptive methods. If you can choose a method that causes little harm to yourself and has good contraceptive effects, you can completely avoid all kinds of unnecessary troubles and harm. Both men and women can use contraception correctly.

1. Male condoms

Effectiveness - up to 97% under optimal use conditions

——Up to 86% in actual use

advantage:

It can be purchased directly over the counter at pharmacies. During sexual intercourse, men using condoms can prevent bacteria from being introduced into the vagina and also help prevent sexually transmitted diseases.

shortcoming:

Male condoms may crack or slip off; condoms containing spermicide may also irritate the vagina. And it can only play a contraceptive role if the man is willing to use it.

2. Contraceptive diaphragm

Effectiveness - up to 94% under optimal use

——Up to 80% in actual use

advantage:

This is a simple and easy contraceptive method that can quickly restore women's fertility without changing their hormonal secretion status. Before use, women need to go to the doctor to customize a contraceptive diaphragm that suits the diameter of their cervix. After that, they can insert or remove the diaphragm as needed. This method blocks sperm from entering the cervix, and it has a spermicide at its base that kills any sperm that comes into contact with it. Once inserted, the effects last up to 6 hours.

shortcoming:

Because many women do not use contraceptive diaphragms correctly, the failure rate is relatively high.

3. Female condoms

Effectiveness - up to 95% under optimal use conditions

——Up to 79% in actual use

advantage:

This condom is inserted into the female vagina, and its outer edge can cover the female vulva to block the contact between the penis and the vagina. Women do not have to rely on men's willingness to use condoms. It can also effectively prevent sexually transmitted diseases and AIDS.

shortcoming:

Female condoms are also more likely to slip off if they are not placed properly during use.

I believe everyone has a general understanding of common contraceptive methods. Nowadays, there are many types of condoms. There are differences in design between male condoms and female condoms, but the contraceptive effects are good. It is recommended that women do not use oral contraceptives for contraception unless it is an emergency, after all, all medicines are toxic.
