Getting married is a great happy event for anyone, but many first-time couples become pregnant before they even taste the sweetness of marriage, because many newlyweds don’t know how to use contraception, especially some women, who don’t know when to take contraceptive pills. Let me introduce to you some information about taking contraceptive pills! Birth control pills work by suppressing ovulation, changing cervical mucus, or other methods. However, oral contraceptives need to be taken correctly to protect women from pregnancy. If you miss the chance to take the pill, the consequences will be disastrous. When is the contraceptive pill effective? Here are three common ways to take the contraceptive pill: 1. Short-acting contraceptive pills The main ingredients are progesterone and estrogen. It has the effects of inhibiting ovulation, hindering the normal growth of the endometrium, changing the properties of cervical mucus and changing the normal peristalsis of the fallopian tubes. Suitable for women without underlying diseases or diabetes. Start taking the medicine on the 5th day from the day of menstruation, 1 tablet every night for 22 consecutive days, which can prevent pregnancy for 1 month. 2. Emergency contraceptive pills The main ingredient is progesterone. The drug's mechanism of action is basically the same as that of short-acting contraceptives. Suitable for women under 40 years old. The main ones are Yuting, Nuoshuang, Baoshiting and Mifepristone tablets. Generally, the first tablet should be taken within 72 hours after sexual intercourse, and then another tablet should be taken 12 hours later. The earlier you take it, the better the effect. 3. Long-acting contraceptive pills Generally, take one tablet on the fifth day after menstruation, and another tablet 20 days later. Contains synthetic progestin and long-acting estrogen. After the drug enters the human body, it will be stored in the fat tissue and then slowly released to inhibit ovulation and act as a long-term contraceptive. It is suitable for women who cannot have an intrauterine contraceptive device and are unwilling to use other contraceptive methods. You can also choose to take contraceptive pills according to your situation. The time to take various contraceptive pills is: 1. For couples who live together and have a regular life and can take oral contraceptives every day, they can choose to take short-acting oral contraceptives, such as oral contraceptives No. 1 and No. 2; start taking them from the fifth day of menstruation, one tablet a day, for 22 consecutive days. 2. If a couple has an irregular lifestyle and cannot take oral contraceptives every day, they can choose long-acting oral contraceptives, such as combined 18-methylnorgestrel. Take the pill once on the fifth day of menstruation, take the second time 20 days later, and then take it once a month, one pill each time. 3. The couple live apart. When visiting relatives, you can take visiting contraceptive pills, such as Visiting Pill No. 1; take one tablet 8 hours before sex, and then take one tablet every night until the visit is over, and take again the next morning. It is not suitable for long-term use. 4. Women who experience gastrointestinal discomfort from oral contraceptives can choose contraceptive injections. 5. If other contraceptive methods have failed or if you have been raped, you can take emergency contraceptive pills, such as 50 mg of ethinyl estradiol, within 24 hours for five consecutive days. As can be seen from the above, the method of taking contraceptives varies depending on the type of contraceptives. Generally speaking, if you have a regular married life, it is best to take short-acting contraceptives. This type of contraceptive has relatively few side effects. It should be emphasized that the side effects of emergency contraceptives are very large and they can generally only be taken once a month. |
