Everyone knows that there are many contraceptive measures in marital life, but none of them are 100% successful. For women who have failed contraception, emergency contraception is the best choice, but many women still worry about getting pregnant after taking emergency contraception. So how can emergency contraception be considered successful? Let me take you to learn about it together.
How is emergency contraception considered successful
Generally speaking, if the use of external condoms fails, emergency contraceptive pills can be taken to save the situation. If withdrawal bleeding occurs about a week after taking emergency contraceptive pills, similar to menstruation, it indicates successful contraception. However, if there is no bleeding, it does not indicate contraceptive failure. Because everyone's physical condition is different, if there is no withdrawal bleeding and menstruation occurs after a period of time, it proves that contraception is successful.
What are the contraceptive methods available
1. Oral contraceptives are currently one of the most comfortable contraceptive methods. Short acting contraceptives can be taken once a day or continuously for 22 days from the end of menstruation, which can help regulate menstruation and alleviate symptoms such as abdominal pain and irritability before menstruation.
2. The safety period method has a low cost of calculating the safety period, while also making two people more intimate. But the failure rate is also as high as 14.4% to 47%. Even for women with very regular menstruation, ovulation time may fluctuate due to changes in climate, diet, emotions, environment, etc., and even additional ovulation may occur.
3. Male condoms, the most common contraceptive tool, can prevent the spread of sexually transmitted diseases such as AIDS while playing a contraceptive role.
At present, there are many contraceptive products on the market, and people have sufficient choices. However, which specific contraceptive method is better varies from person to person and cannot be compared. For example, those who are allergic to rubber cannot use condoms and can only choose other methods. Therefore, everyone should choose according to their actual situation.
