    Uploaded by

    Casey Abello
    There are many methods of artificial birth control, with pills being the most commonly used. No method offers 100% protection from pregnancy, as there is always a small risk of failure. The effectiveness of methods depends on careful and consistent use - condoms can be as low as 85% effective if not used properly. Methods include folk methods like lactation or withdrawal; mechanical barriers like condoms, diaphragms or sponges; and chemical methods involving vaginal suppositories, tablets, creams or foams.

    Artificial Method of

    Contraception
    Today there are many diverse methods of artificial birth control,
    most commonly used method still comes in pill form:
    Effectiveness of Artificial Method of Contraceptive:
     There is NO such thing as a contraception method that offers 100%
    protection against pregnancy, because there is ALWAYS a risk even
    one in a thousand that an accident could happen, be it rupture of a
    condom or human error.
     The more careful and consistent you are, the higher is the
    contraceptive effectiveness for each method. For example, a careless
    use of condoms can make the effectiveness rate drop to nearly 85%.
    Methods of Contraception
    Folk methods
    • Precoital/Poscoital Douche
    • Prolonged Lactation
    • Withdrawal-coitus interruptos, coitus reservatus
    Mechanical methods
    • Condom
    • Diaphragm
    • Sponge
    Chemical methods
    • Vaginal suppositories and tablets
    • Vaginal jellies, creams, and foams
    • Precoital- occurring before or as a preliminary to sexual intercourse
    “precoital play”.

    • Poscoital douche- is to physically remove spermatozoa from the vagina


    by cleansing action, sperm may be found in the endocervix beyond the
    reach of the douche solution within 90 seconds after ejaculation.

    • Withdrawal- oldest form of birth control in the planet. The guy pulls out
    before he ejaculates or some people call withdrawal the “ pull out method”
    Mechanical Methods
    • Condom- a thin rubber worn on a man's penis during sexual intercourse
    as a contraceptive or as a protection against infection.

    • Diaphragm- placed inside the vagina so that it prevents sperm from


    getting into the uterus. It is inserted at least six hours before sex and
    needs to removed after 24 hours for cleaning.

    • Sponge- is small, round-shaped foam placed deep inside the vagina. It


    contains spermicide so that sperm does not get past the foam. It is
    inserted at least six hours before sex and needs to removed after 24
    hours to avoid toxic shock.
    Chemical Methods

    • Vaginal Suppositories & Tablets- are solid medications that are


    inserted into the vagina with a special applicator. They work faster than

    absorb directly into the bloodstream.

    • Vaginal creams foams and jellies- medicated dosage forms for topical
    application in the vagina. A cream is a semisolid emulsion containing
    suspended or dissolved medication;a foam is a dispersion of a gas in
    medicated liquid resulting in a light, frothy mass; a jelly is a colloidal
