How to prevent pregnancy after childbirth

If you do not want a baby for the time being after giving birth or are breastfeeding, it is important to find a suitable and effective contraceptive method. There are many options for contraceptive methods, and effective contraceptive methods can prevent pregnancy. If you do not want a baby for the time being after giving birth, then choosing a contraceptive method is essential. Some women think that they can take birth control pills, but birth control pills have side effects on the body, so they choose to use them externally. Taking birth control pills is harmful to the body of breastfeeding women and is not good for the fetus.

1. If the contraceptive effect is required to be long-lasting and reliable, the placement of an intrauterine contraceptive device such as an IUD is the ideal first choice. The side effects are only local reactions (such as heavier menstruation, longer menstrual periods, etc.) when the body has not adapted to the IUD in the early stage. Generally, the body will adapt after a few months of insertion, and these reactions will disappear naturally without affecting other organs.

2 However, this method is not suitable for women with frequent menstruation, excessive menstrual bleeding, dysmenorrhea and premenstrual tension. For some breastfeeding women and some young women, the IUD is easy to fall off due to the sensitivity of the uterus, making it difficult to use. Women who have IUDs installed should have regular checkups to prevent the device from falling out and being discharged with menstruation, leading to undetected pregnancy. In addition, women who have IUDs installed should pay attention to supplementing with iron-rich foods.

3 Male condoms can be the first choice for male contraception, especially for breastfeeding wives. It avoids the disadvantages of easy falling off of the IUD and the impact of medication on the baby. It is safe and reliable as long as it is used properly.

As mentioned above, I hope to give you a reference. There are many methods of contraception and you can choose one that suits you and does not harm your body. Choose contraceptive measures after giving birth to avoid pregnancy while satisfying physiological needs. Condoms can also be an option. Women with IUDs should remember to have regular check-ups and supplement with more iron-rich foods. Do not have sex within a short period of time after the IUD is inserted.
