The Birth control, also known as contraception and fertilitycontrol, is a method or device used to prevent pregnancy. 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 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
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 pills, patches, vaginal rings,
and injections. Less effective methods
include physical barriers such as condoms, diaphragms and birth control sponges and fertility awareness methods. The least
effective methods are spermicidal and withdrawal by themale before ejaculation. Sterilization, while highly effective, is
not usually reversible; all other methods are reversible, most immediately upon
stopping them.Safe sex practices,
such as with the use of male or female condoms,
can also help prevent sexually transmitted infections. Other
methods of birth control do not protect against sexually transmitted diseases. Emergency birth control can prevent
pregnancy if taken within the 72 to 120 hours after unprotected sex. Some
argue not having sex as a form of birth control,
but abstinence-only sex education may
increase teenage pregnancies if offered without
birth control education, due to non-compliance.
In teenagers,
pregnancies are at greater risk of poor outcomes. Comprehensive sex education and
access to birth control decreases the rate of unwanted pregnancies 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 pregnancy. After the delivery of a child, a woman who is not
exclusively breastfeeding may become pregnant 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 pills.] In
women who have reached menopause, it is recommended that birth control be continued
for one year after the last period.
About
222 million women who want to avoid pregnancy in developing countries are not using a
modern birth control method. Birth control use in developing countries has
decreased the number of deaths during oraround the time of pregnancy 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 pregnancies, birth control can
improve adult women's delivery outcomes and the survival of their children. In
the developing world women's earnings, assets, weight,
and 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.
