What are the contraceptive methods for newlyweds?

Many newlyweds have a headache about contraception. In their first years of marriage, many couples want to enjoy their two-person world to the fullest, so contraception is the most important thing everyone needs to consider. However, contraception should not affect the relationship between the couple. In fact, there are many contraceptive methods in life that are relatively effective and will not affect the couple's life. So what are the contraceptive methods for newlyweds?

1. Natural contraception

Natural contraception methods include interrupting sexual intercourse and calculating the safe period method. Interrupted sexual intercourse, also known as ejaculation outside the vagina, requires the penis to be pulled out of the vagina before orgasm, which is very difficult to implement. In addition, some sperm has already leaked into the vagina before ejaculation. This method is extremely unreliable. Long-term use can seriously affect men's physical and mental health and cause diseases such as prostatitis. Not suitable for newlyweds.

Most women have a menstrual cycle of 24-32 days. Ovulation usually occurs about 14 days before the next menstruation. If the egg is not fertilized within 24 hours after ovulation, the egg cell will die on its own. Sperm can generally fertilize an egg within three days after ejaculation. If we exclude the time of menstruation and the time of possible pregnancy, the "safe period" is very short, only about 10 days. In addition, newlyweds are under great mental stress and their regular lives are disrupted, so it is easy for their ovulation time to change or for extra ovulation to occur. Therefore, newlyweds should not use calculation of the safe period to prevent pregnancy.

2. Barrier measures

Includes condoms and diaphragms (female condoms). Before using a condom, contact between the penis and the vagina must be avoided. The condom must be worn during sexual intercourse, and the penis (along with the condom) must be removed after ejaculation before it becomes flaccid. Otherwise the condom may slip into the vagina. It is recommended to check whether the condom has holes before use.

Although condoms have a high success rate and can prevent sexually transmitted diseases, many people believe that they will affect sexual life, and newlyweds are often reluctant to use them. Moreover, the contraceptive failure rate is higher among newlyweds due to their lack of familiarity with the use of contraceptives.

The size of the diaphragm must be selected by your doctor. It is recommended to place it before sexual intercourse and use spermicide at the same time. The contraceptive film should not be removed until at least 6 hours after sexual intercourse. However, the diaphragm does not prevent infection with sexually transmitted diseases. Newly married women are usually nervous and it is difficult for them to correctly place the vaginal diaphragm, so it is not the first choice of contraceptive method for newly married couples.

The above is an introduction to the contraceptive methods for newlyweds. In fact, many newly married couples want to know more about this matter, so you can make a choice based on the introduction above. The methods introduced above will not affect your sex life, and the effects are also very good. You can give it a try.
