Contraceptive methods suitable for young people

　　We optimistically believe that with the progress of society, everyone will accept very scientific knowledge about sex at a very young age. I was also very happy to see a young man whose parents personally gave him condoms as a gift on his 18th birthday. Everything is no longer a secret, everyone will understand sex, and everyone can enjoy sex. As long as we are honest, all the dangers and mysteries related to sex will be minimized. That must be a good thing.

　　Based on the principle that prevention is better than remedial action, it is necessary to have a comprehensive understanding. Here is a summary of the following contraceptive methods suitable for young people:

　　Contraceptive options for girls who are having sex for the first time

　　It is better to use condoms and short-acting oral contraceptive pills for women.

　　Selection principle - it is advisable to choose a contraceptive method that has little impact on future reproductive functions and is less susceptible to infection, and at the same time adapts to female Physiological characteristics of nulliparous children.

　　Adaptable options – such as short-acting oral contraceptive pills, male condoms, natural birth control methods, and more. After having sex for a period of time (such as 2-3 months), you can also use external spermicides, vaginal contraceptive suppositories, etc. as supplements. Sometimes "double insurance" is necessary: ​​for example, using condoms in combination with "dangerous periods". The long-term use of condoms prevents sexual transmission disease the only way.

　　Unsuitable options - intrauterine devices should not be chosen and should be used under the guidance of a physician in special circumstances. In addition, young girls should not choose long-acting oral contraceptives or long-acting contraceptive injections. Similarly, if you use dermal implants or other long-acting drugs, there will be a period of menstrual disorder. Some women will have spotting bleeding, and some women will have changes in their menstrual cycle and blood volume. Therefore, women who have just started sexual life still need to be considerate of their own cycles, and it is not too late to consider it after their sexual life has stabilized.

　　Contraceptive options for girls with occasional sexual luck

　　It is better to use condoms and quick-acting or short-acting contraceptive pills for women.

　　Selection principle - Because sexual life is infrequent, there is no need to consider long-acting contraceptive methods (further reading on contraceptive methods: The impact of various contraceptive methods on sexual life). But among short-acting contraceptives, try to choose the one that suits you. If you can make your sex life regular in time, it will also be helpful to prepare in advance. The most taboo thing is to have unprotected sex and refuse contraceptive measures, ultimately relying on emergency contraception.

　　Warning reminder – don’t rely on emergency contraceptive pills just because they happen “by chance.”

　　Adaptation options - If you have a regular sex life, it is also advisable to start taking short-acting contraceptive pills one month before this, which does not affect the menstrual cycle and has a stable effect. You can also take quick-acting contraceptive pills on the night you live together.

　　Unsuitable options - It is not advisable to use the safe period contraceptive method, because occasional emotional excitement during sex often leads to "improvised ovulation" or "premature ovulation", and the safe period calculation is inaccurate, which can easily lead to contraceptive failure.

　　For young girls whose menstrual cycles are not very regular, it is best to calculate according to the following method.

　　The shortest number of cycle days - 18 = the first day of the cycle when the fertile period begins

　　The longest number of cycle days - 11 = the last first day of the fertile period in the cycle

　　in vitro ejaculation ——It’s not a good contraceptive at all!

　　Tell your boyfriends clearly not to use this to "coax" girls. Nothing is guaranteed at all. In fact, they themselves are unwilling to withdraw before the climax comes. Before ejaculation, he couldn't control it sperm After ejaculation, you can't control the sperm in the mucus lurking, waiting for conception. Therefore, external ejaculation is obviously only a "no solution." There are hundreds of disadvantages and no advantage! 　　Emergency contraception - only use it 1-2 times a year!

　　Myth 1: Emergency contraception is a method of abortion.

　　Correction: Wrong. Using emergency contraceptive methods at different times of the menstrual cycle can prevent pregnancy through different ways. Emergency contraception cannot remove the implanted blastocyst, nor can it terminate the pregnancy that has already occurred.

　　Myth 2: With emergency contraception, you no longer need to use regular contraception.

　　Correction: Emergency contraception is less effective than regular contraception and has various side effects. In addition, using emergency contraceptive pills multiple times within a month will exceed the recommended dosage and affect menstruation. The frequency of use of emergency contraceptive pills should be controlled to 1-2 times per year.

　　Misunderstanding 3: If a man knows that a woman can use this method to prevent pregnancy, he will not be willing to use condoms.

　　Correction: Using condoms can prevent pregnancy and disease transmission, which cannot be replaced by emergency contraception. Moreover, the first thing men should understand is that emergency contraception is a last resort and is harmful to women's bodies.

　　Young people must take appropriate measures to prevent the two of them from being harmed. Ensure a wonderful sex life.
