Patient's question:
Doctor, you had sex this morning. Besides taking birth control pills, what other methods can you use to prevent pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
Methods of contraception include condoms, intrauterine devices, and hormonal contraception. Except for natural contraception, the use of autologous immune contraception is generally not recommended for those who have not borne children. It is advised to use condoms for safe contraception. Additionally, if you decide on natural contraception, if your menstrual cycle is regular, you can choose to have intercourse during the less fertile period of your cycle to achieve contraception.In your case, taking emergency contraception pills within 72 hours is generally effective, and withdrawal bleeding will occur within 10 days, indicating successful contraception. It is recommended not to take the pill less than three times within a year. Currently, there are no other contraception methods available. In the future, if you have intercourse, it is best to use condoms and avoid taking emergency contraception pills. Do not relax and pay attention to rest.
