If people do not want to get pregnant during sexual intercourse, they need to take some protective measures. The common methods of contraception are condoms and pills. However, due to the significant side effects of contraception on the human body, condoms have become the best choice for people. With the development of technology, some female condoms have also appeared on the market, but many people are not familiar with them. Therefore, some people ask women how to use condoms? What are the methods of contraception for women? Next, I will introduce them one by one for your reference.
How to use female condom?
The female condom is a soft, transparent, strong and wear-resistant sheath made of special polyurethane materials. Its length is about 17 cm, thickness is 0.42~0.53 mm, and the maximum diameter is 7.8 cm. It can effectively prevent the spread of sexually transmitted diseases (including AIDS) while contracepting. The following are the usage methods for female condoms for your reference.
1. Split ring and inner ring
The opening ring completely protects the vaginal opening and uses the inner ring to fix the position inside the vagina.
2. Take the jacket
Hold the inner ring with your thumb and middle finger, press your index finger against the bottom of the jacket, or firmly grasp the inner ring.
3. Insert
Tighten the inner ring and place the jacket into the vagina until the correct position is felt. Attention: Not entering too deep will not cause damage.
4. Ensure correct position
The main body of the condom is not twisted, and the opening ring is always placed at the outer end of the vaginal opening.
5. To avoid backflow of semen, please remove the condom before getting up. When taking out, pinch and rotate the split ring while slowly pulling out the sleeve.
How do women choose contraceptive methods?
For prenatal women, they should choose reliable contraceptive methods that do not affect their future fertility, and mainly choose short-term contraceptive methods. The preferred method is the compound short-term oral contraceptive pill, which can also be used with methods such as condoms and topical spermicides, but the contraceptive effect is slightly lower than that of oral contraceptives.
Women who have given birth have a contraceptive period of up to 25 years. It is recommended to use a more convenient long-term contraceptive method: usually placed by a professional, and the contraceptive effect can be maintained for 5-10 years. The main choices are the intrauterine device (IUD), intrauterine device (IUD), and subcutaneous implant that releases pregnancy hormones.
Menopausal women are advised to use an intrauterine device (IUD) or topical medication to avoid using contraceptive methods such as copper IUDs that increase menstrual bleeding.
