What is the most used contraceptive method?

Many newlyweds do not want children right after getting married, so they use contraception. This not only ensures their sex life, but also avoids other troubles. So what is the most commonly used contraceptive method? The first is condoms, because condoms are safer and can make people feel at ease. What other methods are there? Next, let us find out what is the most commonly used contraceptive method?

What are the methods of emergency contraception?

Many women, when the condom breaks during intercourse, or after intercourse without taking any contraceptive measures, try to avoid pregnancy in many ways, such as jumping violently on the ground, sneezing, and coughing in an attempt to use these external forces to expel the semen in the vagina. Housewives who have the conditions use soda water, vinegar and warm water to rinse the vagina, or use a wet cloth to scrub the vagina vigorously to make the semen flow out. Some people also insert contraceptive cream suppositories or films into the vagina.

These methods can only kill and clean the sperm remaining in the vagina. When the condom breaks, the sperm will quickly swim into the cervix and uterus, and as a result, some people will inevitably become pregnant. As to whether the number of women who did not become pregnant was due to these measures, it is difficult to say. Because unprotected intercourse itself is not 100% certain to lead to pregnancy. Its pregnancy rate is about 2-30%. The measures introduced below are how to reduce the pregnancy rate to a minimum.

The methods of post-coital contraception can be divided into two categories: medical methods and mechanical methods. Drugs are further divided into hormonal and non-hormonal drugs.

Hormonal drugs, commonly used in China are contraceptive pills for visiting relatives. Many visiting relatives medicines still need to be taken before sexual intercourse. Among them, Anti-Pregnancy No. 53 only requires one tablet to be taken immediately after each sexual intercourse, and one tablet to be taken the next morning after the first sexual intercourse. One tablet should be taken every day thereafter. After taking fourteen tablets, the contraceptive effect is 99.5%. Other hormonal post-pregnancy medicines include simple estrogen, i.e. ethylphenol, which needs to be taken for 5 days after each sexual intercourse, twice a day, 25 mg each time, with an effect of more than 99%, but the gastrointestinal reaction is severe and difficult to be accepted. There are also progestins. A single dose of 18-methylnorhenothindrone 0.4 mg after intercourse has an efficacy of 98.3%, but has the disadvantage of irregular bleeding.

The third type of post-coital hormone medicine is a combination of estrogen and progesterone, known as four-estrogen medicine abroad. That is, the medicine is taken twice within 72 hours after sex, with a 12-hour interval between them. Each dose of ethinyl estradiol 50 micrograms and 18-methylnorhenothrone 250 micrograms had a failure rate of 0-1.6%. Side effects are the same as before. The mechanism of these hormonal post-coital contraceptives is not single. They can interfere with sperm activity and capacitation, fallopian tube motility, inhibit or delay ovulation, fertilization, corpus luteum function, endometrial development, implantation and embryo development, etc.

From this we can see that there are many methods of contraception, so the question of which is the most commonly used contraceptive method cannot be answered. In daily life, if you want to prevent pregnancy, you must choose the safest method of contraception. If you get pregnant, you must face it positively and not have negative emotions. Choose the right method to solve the problem, so that there will be no unnecessary consequences.
