Patient's question:
Can pregnancy occur during anal sex? How to have sex best without getting pregnant?Doctor's answer:
Safe Period Method: Contraceptive Success Rate: 70%-80%Principle: Avoiding intercourse during the fertile period based on ovulation patterns.
Method: For women with regular menstrual cycles, ovulation typically occurs about 14-16 days before the next expected period. The days immediately before and after this date are considered unsafe, while other days are considered safe.
Doctor's Advice: During ovulation, some women may experience mild abdominal pain, bloating, clear, stretchy cervical mucus, or slight bleeding, along with increased libido. However, other factors can cause similar symptoms. Long-term use of this method is not very safe.
External Contraceptive Creams/Membranes: Contraceptive Success Rate: 70%-80%
Principle: Soluble membranes containing spermicidal drugs reduce sperm motility.
Method: Before intercourse, roll the membrane into a ball and insert it into the vagina. It becomes effective once dissolved.
Doctor's Advice: Some people mistakenly ingest the membrane, while others insert the separator paper between the membranes into the vagina—both actions are ineffective. Additionally, since the placement of the membrane varies from person to person, the contraceptive effectiveness is relatively low.
Male Condoms: Contraceptive Success Rate: 80%-90%
Principle: Prevent sperm from meeting with eggs.
Method: Before intercourse, the male places the condom over the reproductive organ.
Doctor's Advice: This is the most widely used method among young people. Its biggest advantage is that it does not interfere with the woman's physiology and can also prevent sexually transmitted diseases (STIs). The main obstacle to consistent use is that, despite improvements in material quality, some people still feel the thin film hinders their best enjoyment of sex.
