contraception

Birth control, also known as contraception, anticonception, and fertility control, is the use of methods or devices to prevent unintended *******cy. Birth control has been used since ancient times, but effective and safe methods of birth control only became available in the 20th century. Planning, making available, and using human birth control is called family planning. Some cultures limit or discourage access to birth control because they consider it to be morally, religiously, or politically undesirable.The World Health Organization and United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention provide guidance on the safety of birth control methods among women with specific medical conditions. The most effective methods of birth control are sterilization by means of vasectomy in males and tubal ligation in females, intrauterine devices (IUDs), and implantable birth control. This is followed by a number of hormone-based methods including oral *****, patches, vaginal rings, and injections. Less effective methods include physical barriers such as ******s, diaphragms and birth control sponges and fertility awareness methods. The least effective methods are spermicides and wí†hdráwal by the male before ejaculation. Sterilization, while highly effective, is not usually reversible; all other methods are reversible, most immediately upon stopping them. Safe *** practices, such as with the use of male or female ******s, can also help prevent sexually transmitted infections. Other methods of birth control do not protect against sexually transmitted diseases. Emergency birth control can prevent *******cy if taken within 72 to 120 hours after unprotected ***. Some argue not having *** is also a form of birth control, but abstinence-only *** education may increase teenage *******cies if offered without birth control education, due to non-compliance.In teenagers, *******cies are at greater risk of poor outcomes. Comprehensive *** education and access to birth control decreases the rate of unintended *******cies in this age group. While all forms of birth control can generally be used by young people, long-acting reversible birth control such as implants, IUDs, or vaginal rings are more successful in reducing rates of teenage *******cy. After the delivery of a child, a woman who is not exclusively breastfeeding may become *******t again after as few as four to six weeks. Some methods of birth control can be started immediately following the birth, while others require a delay of up to six months. In women who are breastfeeding, progestin-only methods are preferred over combined oral birth control *****. In women who have reached menopause, it is recommended that birth control be continued for one year after the last menstrual period.About 222 million women who want to avoid *******cy in developing countries are not using a modern birth control method. Birth control use in developing countries has decreased the number of deaths during or around the time of *******cy by 40% (about 270,000 deaths prevented in 2008) and could prevent 70% if the full demand for birth control were met. By lengthening the time between *******cies, birth control can improve ãdül† women's delivery outcomes and the survival of their children. In the developing world, women's earnings, assets, and weight, as well as their children's schooling and health, all improve with greater access to birth control. Birth control increases economic growth because of fewer dependent children, more women participating in the workforce, and less use of scarce resources.
