What is the best way to prevent pregnancy?

There are many different methods of contraception, such as the more traditional contraceptive methods we see, condoms, birth control pills, and safe period contraception methods, etc. Of course, these methods have their own success rates. The success rate of condoms is very high, but they often cause some inflammation. If the condom falls off during sexual intercourse, it will also increase the risk of contraceptive failure. Although birth control pills are very effective, they often bring some side effects to the body. So let us understand together what method is the best for contraception.

1. Natural contraception: including interrupting sexual intercourse and calculating the safe period. Interrupted sexual intercourse requires the penis to be pulled out of the vagina before orgasm, which is very difficult to implement. In addition, some sperm may leak 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. Calculation of safe period: The calculation method is to count from the first day of the next menstrual period, and count down 14 days or subtract 14 days to get the ovulation day. The ovulation day and the 5 days before and 4 days after the ovulation day are called the ovulation period. Avoid the ovulation period to achieve the purpose of contraception.

Special note: Topical spermicides are a very common method of contraception, available in many forms such as suppositories, tablets, films, gels and vaginal sponges. It can kill sperm or make it unable to swim in the female reproductive tract through chemical action.

2. Barrier measures: including condoms and vaginal 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.

3. Hormonal contraceptive methods: Oral contraceptives are the most popular contraceptive method in the world, especially among teenagers and women in their early twenties. Combined oral contraceptives contain two hormones: estrogen and progestin. These two hormones can prevent the growth and maturation of egg cells in the ovaries, thus preventing ovulation from occurring. This means that if oral contraceptives are taken correctly, their contraceptive reliability is almost 100%, far higher than the contraceptive reliability of condoms, and is listed first among the contraceptive methods available to newlyweds.

4. Emergency contraceptive method: If you forget to take contraceptive measures or contraception fails, you can take emergency contraceptive pills. However, emergency contraceptive pills are only a remedy when conventional contraceptive measures fail. They may cause nausea, vomiting, menstrual disorders and other discomforts. Therefore, try to take conventional contraceptive measures and avoid using this contraceptive method as a last resort.

The above is a detailed answer to the question of which method of contraception is best. Everyone has a different physical constitution, so the contraceptive method they choose is also different. After my explanation, I hope everyone can choose the contraceptive method that suits them according to their own condition. Only an active and healthy lifestyle can make you live a happier and healthier life.
