Many people around you have a deep misunderstanding of short-acting contraceptives, and the concept of [taking contraceptives = sluts] is deeply rooted.

When you finish reading the stories of these girls who took short-acting contraceptives, you will definitely exclaim like this:

The short-acting contraceptive pill is really good, madam, madam!

A good life

Since I met the short-acting contraceptive pill,

@ kala:

A 25-year-old single young woman just finished the first piece of medicine in the new drug box yesterday. It has been two years since the medicine was taken.

My menstruation is very irregular, sometimes dripping wet for more than half a month, sometimes not once a few months, diagnosed by the doctor as [anovulatory dysfunctional uterine bleeding].

I was prescribed a box of short-acting contraceptives. I was asked to take them to stop the blood before slowly adjusting the cycle.

After eating for more than three months, the menstrual cycle is regular. No, it should be said that it is unimaginable.

I usually come to my great aunt within 2-3 days after stopping the drug. The menstruation cycle is stable at 4 days. You know, if I could finish bleeding in a week before, I would be grateful.

The amount of menstruation has also decreased, and finally I have a mature uterus and know how much blood I should shed every month.

In the past, my menstruation was so large that even the longest menstruation towel could not stop the catastrophe. When taking a bath, it was like at the scene of a murder, and blood flowed down my thigh.

I also got unexpected benefits: the skin has improved.

It used to have acne, but now it doesn’t have acne. It may be due to old age or psychological effect.

After all, without the big aunt this knot, the mood is happy, the whole person radiant!

My life is given by short-acting birth control pills.

@ gigigi:

In 2014, I was diagnosed with [polycystic ovary syndrome].

Irregular menstrual cycle, infertility, hirsutism, acne.

The most painful thing for me is the acne on my face, which is so serious that I will wear a mask when I go out.

The doctor prescribed me a lot of medicine, including short-acting contraceptives.

After eating like this for a year, thankfully, acne has obviously improved. Although some scars have been left, at least they will not become inflamed and you can see people in your face.

Remembering the dark period of acne, inferiority, loss, depression…

Short-acting contraceptives are my rescuers.

I only believe in myself when it comes to contraception.

@ dory:

I had an unpleasant experience of contraceptive failure with my boyfriend before, which put me under great psychological pressure for a long time.

Don’t want to bear the consequences of contraceptive failure any more, I chose to give myself the initiative in giving birth-taking short-acting contraceptives.

After eating for more than a year, the biggest feeling is: it’s really cool!

Although the condom is only a layer of film, wearing it or not, the experience is simply one sky and one ground. Sometimes it is really disappointing to stop halfway to wear the condom.

And without the pressure of unwanted pregnancy, [applause for love] has become a more pleasant thing.

Ten Questions on Short-acting Contraceptives

You must still have many doubts about short-acting contraceptives. You may as well listen to the answer of Li Shan, the attending obstetrician and gynecologist.

1. Is there a what difference between short-acting and emergency contraception?

Can dysmenorrhea be treated?

Not only can dysmenorrhea be relieved, but also many symptoms related to menstrual cycle can be improved, such as irregular menstruation, excessive menstrual blood volume, long or short menstrual period, etc.

Is it true that eating skin will improve?

Short-acting contraceptives have a certain regulating effect on hormone levels in the body. Some women will find that their skin seems to be more radiant during taking short-acting contraceptives.

For acne problems caused by hyperandrogenism, such as polycystic ovary syndrome, taking short-acting contraceptives can also relieve them.

4. Will it increase the risk of gynecological cancer?

Studies have found that oral short-acting contraceptives can reduce the incidence of endometrial cancer and ovarian cancer, and this protective effect can last for 10-15 years after drug withdrawal.

Breast cancer is still controversial and there is no unified conclusion.

Are there any other side effects?

At present, most of the short-acting contraceptives sold on the market are the third generation and the fourth generation. The adverse reactions of edema and obesity have been greatly reduced.

Some people will suffer from nausea and dizziness in a short period of time, and may also have some irregular intravenous drip bleeding, which is usually more common in the first three months.Most of these phenomena will slowly disappear by themselves. Don’t worry.

The current research believes that it is relatively safe to take short-acting contraceptives for 5 ~ 10 years or more for a long time.

6. Will it affect pregnancy?

The metabolism of short-acting contraceptives is very fast, and normal menstruation can be resumed within 2-3 days after drug withdrawal.

After menstruation resumes, you can get pregnant normally without affecting the growth and development of your offspring.

7. After taking short-acting contraceptives, can you have no internal injection?

From the first day to the seventh day, you need to wear a condom for the first seven days, and you can not wear a condom from the eighth day.

Proper use of short-acting contraceptives can achieve a contraceptive success rate of more than 99%, higher than condoms.

However, short-acting contraceptives only focus on contraception, regardless of the spread of sexual diseases, pay attention to safety, and do not kill people or lose their lives.

8. What about missing clothes?

One tablet is missed for less than 12 hours, and timely supplement will not affect the contraceptive effect.

More than 12 hours, similarly, take it immediately when found, and still take the next tablet at the normal time.

If you miss more than two tablets, you need to start taking them again for one cycle.

9. Can every woman eat?

No, not everyone is suitable for eating.

The following women are not suitable for short-acting contraceptives:

    Women with venous or arterial thrombosis/thromboembolism or cerebrovascular accident, medical history, and family history; Women over 35 years old who smoke for a long time; Diabetic women with severe vascular involvement; Women with severe liver and kidney diseases, gynecological cancer, etc.;

If you are not sure if you have these problems, you can go to the hospital for a physical examination before eating.

Postscript:

In Europe and the United States, the proportion of short-acting contraceptives in contraceptive methods is 30% ~ 40%, while in China, it is only 2%.

As a safe and reliable contraceptive method recommended by the World Health Organization, short-acting contraceptives enable women not to worry about unwanted pregnancies any more, to face the topic of sex more calmly, and to know how to protect themselves better.

This great invention in the 1960s was a big step forward for women to realize their independent control over their bodies, sex and fertility.

All you need to do is take a small white pill on time every day.
