The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that approximately 400 million people worldwide lack access to contraception guidance. Each year, over 50 million women are forced to undergo induced abortion, with over 20 million of these being unsafe abortions. Around 80,000 women die from complications, and millions suffer from various diseases or disabilities as a result. In China, since the 1980s, it has been preliminarily estimated that the annual number of induced abortions exceeds 10 million. Experts analyze that the reasons for this situation are multifaceted, but the main issue is the lack of contraception knowledge. Women spend over 30 years of their lives needing contraception, so choosing a reliable method and adhering to accurate use are essential measures to ensure a composed and healthy life. This book systematically and comprehensively introduces the usage, advantages, disadvantages, suitable populations, and development trends of every contraception method, providing the latest, the most complete, and the most considerate information and advice. It strongly advocates the principle of perfect contraception—women should have the freedom, rationality, and self-respect to control their reproductive and sexual lives.
