How can couples effectively prevent pregnancy?

Having a normal sex life can make the relationship between couples more harmonious, but sexual intercourse should not be too frequent, and taking good contraceptive measures is also crucial. Since women need to have artificial abortions if they get pregnant unexpectedly, it is very harmful to their uterus. It is necessary to avoid this health hazard and protect women's health. So how can couples use contraception effectively?

1. Intrauterine contraceptive ring

Contraceptive mechanism:

The contraceptive success rate is over 95% by preventing the fertilized egg from implanting in the uterus.

advantage:

There are few side effects and it can be left in place for a long time, even until menopause.

Key points for safe contraception:

The ring can easily move out of its normal position within 3 months after insertion, so you should have regular X-rays to avoid getting pregnant with the ring due to it moving out of its normal position. People with gynecological inflammation, heavy or irregular menstruation, and reproductive tract tumors should not wear the IUD.

2. External contraceptive film

Contraceptive mechanism:

The success rate of preventing pregnancy by reducing sperm motility is 96%.

advantage:

It does not damage the vaginal epithelium and does not change the self-cleaning function of the vagina. Long-term use is harmless to the body and does not stain clothes.

Key points for safe contraception:

It should be kept in a cool and dry place at ordinary times to prevent moisture from affecting the efficacy of the medicine. Do not knead it too tightly or too small when using, otherwise it will affect the dissolution of the medicine. Be sure to use your fingers to send it deep into the vagina, and have sexual intercourse after 10 minutes. If sexual intercourse lasts more than half an hour, you should add another one.

3. Male condoms

Contraceptive mechanism:

Preventing pregnancy by preventing sperm from meeting egg has a success rate of 80%-90%.

advantage:

It has no interfering effect on the female body's physiology and can also prevent sexually transmitted diseases.

Key points for safe contraception:

The model must be suitable for the user. Moreover, it must be used at the beginning of sexual intercourse. Damaged or deteriorated condoms must not be used again. Afterwards, you must press the upper end of the condom and pull it out together with the penis, and check whether there is semen in the small bag of the condom. This is to confirm that the condom is not damaged.

I believe everyone is clear about how couples can effectively prevent pregnancy, and there are various contraceptive methods to choose from. However, the methods required are different depending on the specific age group and fertility situation. If you haven't had children yet, you cannot use contraceptive methods such as intrauterine devices or sterilization.
