Which contraceptive method is most suitable for you? What are the advantages and disadvantages of contraceptive methods?

In recent years, the high abortion rate among women of childbearing age has aroused widespread concern in society and has also attracted the attention of relevant national departments. There are many contraceptive methods for women to choose, such as intrauterine devices, condoms, birth control pills, etc. But many times, women at different ages do not know which contraceptive method is most suitable for them, or do not understand these methods, or even "dare not" use them. But abroad, there are professional doctors who introduce various contraceptive methods to women of childbearing age. And they guide their correct use according to personal circumstances and personalized needs.

1. Condoms Condoms are a non-drug form of preventing conception. They are mainly used to prevent sperm and egg from combining during sex and prevent pregnancy. In addition, condoms also have the function of preventing the spread of sexually transmitted diseases such as gonorrhea and AIDS, so they are also called condoms.

2. Contraceptive pills Contraceptive pills generally refer to oral contraceptive pills. There are female oral contraceptive pills and male oral contraceptive pills. The contraceptive principle is mainly to inhibit ovulation and change the cervical mucus, making it difficult for sperm to penetrate. Or reduce the production of glycogen in the uterine glands, making it difficult for the blastocyst to survive. Or change the activity of the uterus and fallopian tubes to hinder the transportation of fertilized eggs. It is a drug that prevents sperm and eggs from combining to form fertilized eggs, thereby achieving the purpose of contraception.

3. The IUD does not actually enter the uterine cavity and is not a truly functional IUD. The IUD can achieve the purpose of contraception without affecting sexual life. It is easy to put in and take out, "safe and effective", and has "mild" adverse reactions.

For women before childbirth, they should choose a reliable contraceptive method that does not affect future fertility, and mainly choose a short-acting contraceptive method. The preferred method is a combined short-acting oral contraceptive. Condoms, topical spermicides and other methods can also be used, but the contraceptive effect is slightly inferior to oral contraceptives. For women after childbirth, the contraceptive period is as long as 25 years, and it is recommended to use a more convenient long-term contraceptive method. It is usually placed by a professional, and the contraceptive effect can last for 5-10 years. The main choices are progesterone-releasing intrauterine contraceptive systems (Mirena), intrauterine devices, and subcutaneous implants. Women in menopause are recommended to use intrauterine contraceptive systems (Mirena) or external medications, and avoid using contraceptive methods that increase menstrual bleeding, such as copper intrauterine devices.
