The twenty-first century has given humanity a happy opportunity to independently decide whether the family will be large or limited to one or two children. It would seem - what could be easier? Experiment, consult with experts and pick up your own little defender for yourself.
Probably, every woman heard popular at women's forums, and in real communication, horror stories - contrary to expectations, protection led to an unwanted pregnancy. Among the ladies there is heated debate about which protection method is the most reliable and convenient. Someone is satisfied with the established spiral, someone prefers barrier means, and for some years he has been using oral hormonal contraceptives. However, there is not a single way in which there would be no breathtaking story, having heard which, many anxiously clutch at the calendar - and didn’t the same opportunity happen to them? And the more these chilling stories, the faster the credibility of family planning aids falls. Why do contraceptives fail?
Surprisingly, most often the reason lies in improper operation. At the same time, not a single woman admits to her friend her recklessness - after all, universal literacy and higher education seem incompatible with the inability to read the instructions correctly.
Condoms
“We always used condoms, and as a result, Fedor was born” is a familiar phrase? And now - attention. It's hard to believe, but the number of men who regularly use a condom begin sexual intercourse WITHOUT it, putting on a latex protector almost before the end of intimacy. As a result, spermatozoa that are in the partner's lubricant released in the process freely rush in search of an egg. And whoever seeks, he is known to always find.
Hormonal drugs
"I have not forgotten a single pill, but my Katya is already going to first grade." What resulted in the birth of Katyusha? Undoubtedly, every woman carefully studied the regimen of taking the drug, moreover, hormones give double protection, preventing ovulation and thickening cervical mucus, thus creating an additional barrier. However, few people remember that some antibiotics and painkillers, as well as any absorbents, reduce the effect of contraceptives, and vomiting after taking the pill is dangerous by lowering hormones, because the active substance does not have time to digest. And do not try to convince your body by nodding at an empty blister - he did not receive his dose of hormones.
Candles, creams and gels
On the one hand, these are some of the most convenient protection options - they do not affect either weight or mood, and the sensations, unlike using a condom, are much more pleasant. However, you have to pay for pleasure - it is these funds that do not give the desired one hundred percent protection, leaving five, or even more, percent of the probability of fertilization. The second enemy of spermicides is ordinary soap. A woman can simply forget about its properties that destroy protection, because the soul is just the place where most of the actions are honed to automatism and does not require much thought.
PSA (Interrupted sexual intercourse)
Did you know that a huge percentage of families consider this method a complete protection, recruiting numerous supporters with convincing examples from their own experience? Funny, but the argument is the years spent with a partner without an unwanted pregnancy. However, once is enough, because the fertile period of a woman lasts 30 years or more.
Calendar method
Knowledge of anatomy helps. It is not so difficult to calculate your period, enjoying the proximity on safe days. The result of such mathematics was the birth of a baby? There is nothing surprising - the ovulation calendar is designed for an average woman, and your egg is not obliged to walk at all for the sake of statistics.
