What should I do if I am afraid of getting pregnant after having sex?

If you don't want to get pregnant after sexual intercourse, you can take emergency contraceptive pills afterwards. This can avoid pregnancy. Actively taking it within 72 hours afterwards generally has a contraceptive effect, so there is no need to worry. You should know the right time to take emergency contraceptive pills: take them within 72 hours (the sooner the better) after contraceptive failure or unprotected intercourse. After taking the emergency contraceptive pill, you are not allowed to have sex without contraception during this menstrual cycle.

Women can consider taking emergency contraceptive drugs if they suffer accidental injuries or have unprotected sex for other reasons, or if contraception fails, such as condom breakage, slippage, or incorrect calculation of the safe period. The drugs are effective within 72 hours after intercourse. If they have sex again while taking the drugs, the time must be recalculated. Healthy women of childbearing age should apply the drug within 72-120 hours after sexual intercourse after excluding pregnancy.

If you are already one month pregnant, the possibility of miscarriage through sexual intercourse is low, and generally the main consideration is medical abortion or artificial abortion. Generally, sexual intercourse will not cause miscarriage, unless the woman has a history of habitual miscarriage. Therefore, this kind of sexual intercourse will not cause miscarriage. It is recommended that if you do not want to have children, it is best to go to the hospital as soon as possible to choose a suitable method of termination of pregnancy. The earlier the damage, the less damage.

If you don’t want to get pregnant after having sex, the best way is to use condoms, which is currently the safest method. The safe period is not very safe.

How to use female condoms

Female condoms are not common in life, and male condoms are the most commonly used in daily life. There are big differences in the use of the two.

The female condom is a soft, transparent, strong and wear-resistant sheath made of a special polyurethane material. It is about 17 cm long, 0.42-0.53 mm thick, and has a maximum diameter of 7.8 cm. While providing contraception, it can effectively prevent the spread of sexually transmitted diseases (including AIDS). When in use, it will always be placed outside the vaginal opening to block direct contact between the base of the male penis and the female vulva during intercourse, which is more effective in preventing the spread of germs than male condoms.

Based on the above advantages, condoms have broken the male "patent". In 2014, female safety condoms specially designed and produced for women were officially launched in Chengdu. It is said that the condom fills the gap in this field in the domestic market and has successfully passed the acceptance of the Ministry of Health and provincial experts.
