The question of protection from sexually transmitted diseasesand unplanned pregnancy is an acute social problem in all countries. On contraception methods tell social advertising, fashion magazines, television. And yet, many do not know about the new "inventions" in this area.
When it comes to contraceptives for womenFirst of all, we mean preventionunwanted pregnancy. Despite the abundance of methods of protection against unwanted pregnancy, still half of the pregnancies are unplanned. This is due to the inaccessibility of protection (at a price, in the presence of something they are always, even at night in the pharmacies working around the clock) and the difficulty of their use.
Therefore, creating new contraceptives for womenmanufacturers took care of their ease of use, and also focused on the needs of modern women. After all, situations are different and different means are suitable for each. For example, there are already enough children in your family and you no longer plan to “have” a child. Suitable long-term measures. Or: you became parents not so long ago and you want to wait about five years before you think about your next child. Perhaps you are alone and need, above all, protection from sexually transmitted diseases. For each case, the gynecologist will be able to choose for you the appropriate method of protection.

Low-dose hormonal contraceptives - a vivid example of innovation in the field of contraceptive pills (the drug "Silest", "Jeanine"). They contain small doses of artificial hormones (the most appropriate natural), but their effectiveness does not decrease.
The problem is constant passesdaily pill. With the modern rhythm of life, the activity of women is difficult to constantly take hormone pills at the same time. And at the admission of 3 receptions their efficiency decreases to zero. In addition, taking oral contraceptives must be interrupted, during this period many women become pregnant.
Another disadvantage of birth control pillsis still in numerous contraindications: some can not be taken with hypertension, varicose veins, others with diabetes, with overweight and so on ... Fortunately, there are other reliable contraceptives for women.
