If you’re sexually active, you’re probably already familiar with the birth control options since they’re the most commonly available forms of birth control: the pill, the IUD, the diaphragm, the condom, the IUD (with spermicide), and the implant. Those were the ones I listed out; there are plenty more choices.
There are some factors to consider when choosing the best birth control method for yourself. Some methods work best for lighter or heavier periods, while others are more likely to lead to unplanned pregnancies. There are also various types of contraception to choose from, including birth control pills, coils, patches, rings, injections, an IUD, and an IUI. While each method works differently, each offers its unique set of benefits. And they’re all effective ways to avoid an unwanted pregnancy.
Condoms
Condoms should be a part of everyone’s sexual health and wellness routine. In their natural state, latex and rubber contain chemicals called toxins that are present when it is extracted from their sources. These toxins are broken down during the manufacturing process but remain in the final product. Ingesting these toxins could lead to serious health problems that may even lead to death.
Condoms are exceptional sex equipment. They make sex safer for many reasons. They help prevent the spread of sexually transmitted diseases like HPV and herpes. They also prevent pregnancy and the spread of sexually transmitted infections, like HIV and chlamydia. And most importantly, they can help prevent the spread of sexually transmitted infections, like HPV and herpes, from one person to another.
Implants
Cervixes come in two varieties: open and closed. An open cervix allows sperm to fertilize the egg, while a closed cervix is too tight to allow the sperm to get in. An intact hymen often indicates an open cervix. Most birth control methods rely on the closing of the cervix, either with a diaphragm or a cervical cap. The contraceptive implant, developed by American researchers, is relatively new to the U.S. market and differs from other birth control methods in the way it’s administered.
The contraceptive implant has been around for a long time, and it’s a pretty reliable form of birth control. The FDA has approved the contraceptive implant Progestasert, which is said to be a modern version of the contraceptive implant. The implant is a small, thin plastic rod inserted into the upper arm and releases progestin. Progestin is a progestin hormone that thickens the cervical mucus, preventing sperm from reaching the egg.
Combined Pills
The Combined pill is also known as a progestogen-only pill and is an oral contraceptive (OC). This form of contraception contains both progesterone and estrogen combined in a low dose. The pill was developed in the 1960s and has become one of the most popular forms of contraception. The contraceptive pill has many different uses, such as acting as an effective form of birth control, regulating periods, and reducing the risk of endometrial cancer. The contraceptive pill consists of three hormones: estrogen, progestogen, and ethinylestradiol (EE).
The Combined Pill has become increasingly popular among women, and it is now considered by many to be a viable contraceptive option. The pill contains a combination of estrogen and progesterone, which reduce the risk of pregnancy after ovulation. They are more popular than pill alone, which has estrogen and progesterone in a single tablet. It works by preventing ovulation, so you are no longer ovulating (or releasing an egg) and, therefore, cannot become pregnant after you take a pill.
