Choice Of Contraceptive Methods CONTRACEPTIVE METHODS---THEIR EFFECTIVENESS AND RIGHT CHOICE
Contraception kya he? Contraception ya waqfey se murad he pregnancy ko avoid karna mukhtalif tareeqey par amal kar ke sawaey iss ke keh intercourse na keya jaye ya female ke bachey dani ko niqal daina(uterus removal/hysterectomy)
waqfa key waisey tu bohat se tareeqey han aur har couple key leye har method suitable nai hota .the most important thing is choice of the method.
The most frequently asked question by the couples is k sab se safe method konsa he??
Sab se safe method depend karta he k couple ye janana chah ra he k with respect to bodily effects ya physical effects se ha ya ye k pregnancy na ho n most of the couples are worried about unwanted pregnancy.
In this article I will try to explain little about contraceptive methods but mainly their effectiveness n the appropriate choice for the couples…
There are 2 types of methods broadly
1)TEMPORARY METHODS
A) barrier method/mechanical method( tareeqey jin mai male penis aur female vagina key darmiyan rakawat rakhna ho takey sperms female body mai release nahi on)/condom etc…
B) natural method (qudrati tareeqey)
C) hormonal method ( female body mai produce honey waley hormones jaise hormones tablets ya injection mai daina)
D) intra uterine contraceptive devices( bachey dani key ander plastic aur copper se bani huwe cheez rakh daina take pregnancy na ho)
2)PERMANENT METHODS
a)female sterilization/tubal ligation( females ke bachey dani ke wo tubes jo uterus aur ovary ko join karti han unko band karna)
b)male sterilization/vasectomy ( male partner ke sperms ko semen mai nikalney na daine ka operation keya jata he)
NATURAL METHODS
Ye method sab se safe han iss lehaz se keh body par kissi tablet ya injection ka side effect nai hota magar inn mai pregnany ho janey ke chances bohat zada han
COITUS INTERRUPTUS/WITHDRAWL METHOD
Iss method mai male partner is asked to remove his penis out of vagina just before discharge .
Disadvanges:
1)Self control ya mard ka khud par qaboo rakhna iss ke leye practice ke zaroorat he aur bohat se couple nai kar patey
2)agar few drops bhi semen ka female body mai chala gaya tu pregnancy ka chance increase ho jata he
3)bohat se couples shakayat kartey han k hum sex enjoy nahi kar patey ..
FAILURE RATE
25percent
RHYTHM METHOD/SAFE PERIOD SEX
Iss method mai couple is asked not to do intercourse from female menstrual cycle 8thday to18th day in females with regular cycle
Iss ka failure rate na honey ke barabar he.
Disadvantages
1)sirf wo females ye method kar sakte han jin ke menses bohat regular hon
2)calendar par menstrual cycle ka bilkul sahe record rakhna parta he
3)couples are nody ready ke wo itne zada din sex na karain
BASAL BODY TEMPERATURE METHOD
Females ke body ka temperature ovulation days mai (ya wo din jab egg body mai banta he)zada hona shoro ho jata he 0.4 to 0.8 Fahrenheit degrees..isko record kya jaey aur temperature increase honey ke 48hours tak sex na keya jaye
Disadvantage:
1) only educated couples can perform this method
2) highly inaccurate
FAILURE RATE
Upto 36 percent
Billings method
Female partner ko kaha jata he k ap apne vagina mai se aney wali secretions ko note karo jab wo zada ho jain amount mai ya pani ke tarah ya patli ho jain tu phir 48hours tak sex na karain
Disadvantage
1)its difficult to keep record
2)failure rate is high..
BREAST FEEDING is not at all the most reliable method and not included medically into natural contraceptive method as it is normally thought…
BARRIER METHOD
There are both female barrier and male barrier method.
Male Condoms are mainly used
Female barriers are: female condoms, scervical cap, sponges and diaphragm.
In Pakistan mostly n almost wholly male condom are used.
MALE CONDOM: male partner apne organ ya penis par galaf use karta he take sperm vagina mai enter nah on.
Most commonly used contraceptive method in Pakistan of all methods although hormonal pills r also v.widely used.
FAILURE RATE
3-5percent
DISADVANTAGE
1) iss ke application ka problem ha k iss ko full erection ke time par apply karna he aur sex excitement mai ye karna mushkil ho sakta he
2) rupture ho sakta he condom ka
3) male partners agree nai karte use karne ko as they feel ke sex mai decrease of pleasure ho jata he.
FEMALE BARRIER:
Female barrier mai diaphragm,cervical cap and condoms atey han jo keh foreign countries mai tu use hotey han but problem ye ha k in our society females ko itni know how nai ha n inn se vaginal infection ke chances bhi increase hotey han agar proper time par remove na keya jaey…
But inn ka advantage ye ha k ye sex se phley vagina ya cervix mai insert kar leitey hane even 3hours phley tak kar saktey han aur ye chance nai hota ke male condom ke tarah ye apply karne se reh jaye ga…
Mostly in family planning clinics the couple are advised to use male condoms with one of the natural methods like safe period sex….or else only condoms…
Contraceptive Method for Females with regular cycles:
Couples ko kaha jata he k ap log jab 8th to 18thday of female menses cycle mai sex karain tu condom use kar lain aur baqe din mai condom key bagair sex kar lain… but ye applicable to those females jin ka regular cycle ho.
advantage
1) the most biggest advantage ye ha k couples ko condom free sex karney ka mouqa bhe milta he aur ye shikayat nai hoti k sex enjoy nai kar sakte….
2) Bohat lambey arsa sex avoid nai karna parta kunke 8th to 18th day mai condom use ho sakta he
3) Failure rate decrease hota he
4) Body par bad effects nai hotey

all the couples who DO NOT want to practice condom or natural method are advised other methods mostly hormonal and also there are special cases as follows:
CONTRACEPTIVE METHOD FOR FEMALES WITH IRREGULAR MENSES:
these are advised either pills that are COCP yani pills with 2 hormones or if they are poor at taking pills then hormonal injection or depot or if these require long waqfa or duration or spacing between children
these are advised HORMONES loaded INTRA uterine contraceptive devices…
CONTRACEPTIVE METHOD FOR LACTATIONAL MOTHERS
1)POP yani female pill with one hormone in it as if COCP are given these decreases milk production
2)Intra uterine device is also recommended for these females(copper-T)
CONTRACEPTIVE METHOD FOR COUPLES WITH LONG SPACING
1)DEPOT method is advised as very less hormones are released from it and less side effect
2)Intra uterine contra captive device usually copper –t is advised
CONTRACEPTIVE METHOD TO AVOID UNWANTED PREGNANCY
1)For those couple where husbands are abroad and when they return unprotected intercourse is done usually Morning after pill to be taken within 48-72hours and then continue condom or COCPs…..
2)Also if unprotected sex is done and couple wants to avoid pregnancy and also want a long spacing of 1yr or so or even some months then IUCD inserted within 5days of unprotected sex avoids pregnancy …. Either lippe loop or mostly copper-T is used.
CONTRACEPTIVE METHOD AFTER ABORTION:
1)COCP have the advantage that after early pregnancy or late pregnancy abortion these can be started immediately .
2)IUCD can be inserted but after late trimester pregnancy 3week duration is required to be awaited before its insertion.
PERMANENT METHOD OF CONTRACEPTION
Its usually advised when
1)female ko koi aisi medical disease ha jo uske zindgi ke leye fatal he agar pregnancy ho tu…like heart diseases
2)family mai mourousi ya genetically severe disease han jo baby ko transfer hoti han
3)female mentally retarded ha
4) couple ne apni family complete kar lei ha…….problem iss reason ke sath ye ha k bohat se log iss ko gair islami samajtey hen ke without medical reason bachey band karwa leye gaey han…magar ye couples ka apna decision ha..
Females ke tubes band karne ka operation mostly keya jata he khas kar jab 4babies c-section se paida ho jain kunke medically tu 3babies c-section se hon tu thek ha but iss se zada nai….. magar bohat zaroori ha ke couple iss ke ijjazat daiey..
Male vasectomy aisa operation ha jo ke permanent method honey ke bawajood reverse keya ja sakta he aur reversal rate 95percent tak he…magar iss ko reverse karne ke baad pregnancy rate bohat kum ha kunke sperms ke against antibodies form ho chuke hoti han semen mai…
UTERUS removal ya bachey dani ko nikala sirf aur sirf contraception ke leye usually medically not recommended but uterus ke koi apni disease ho tu aisa kar daitey han..
OVERALL CONTRACEPTIVE METHOD CHOICE
It depends on
Particular need or demand of couple
Which method medically suits them
Which method they can practice easily
Most imp two method jo inn ko psychologically disturb na karey .. unki sex like ko disturb na karey…
