Thanks to the achievements of modern biochemistry, manufacturers of oral contraceptives have the opportunity to reduce the concentration of hormones in birth control pills at least several times. In turn, this reduced the negative impact of such drugs on the functional systems of the female body. On the this moment The safest are three-phase contraceptives, in which the concentration of estrogens and progestogens is 5-20 times lower than that of first-generation drugs.

Depending on the dose of hormones in the composition, oral contraceptives are divided into two groups:

Monophasic- the concentration of estrogens and progestogens in tablets does not change throughout the entire period of administration, because of this, an excess of synthetic hormones accumulates in the woman's body, which can lead to a deterioration in well-being.

Polyphase(currently two- and three-phase) - in these tablets, the amount of hormones varies depending on the phase of the woman's menstrual cycle, which allows you to simulate the natural fluctuation of the hormonal background and reduces the risk of side effects. In medical practice, multi-phase drugs are called combined oral contraceptives (COCs).

The difference between three-phase contraceptives from previous generations is a lower concentration of hormones. Thanks to this, the pills of this group are safer for health and have a better contraceptive effect.

In the West, three-phase contraceptives have been used since the mid-70s of the last century. Experts agree that at the moment these drugs are the best contraceptives available for women. In the case of proper selection and compliance with the instructions, three-phase contraceptives provide almost 100% protection against unwanted pregnancy.

To navigate when choosing combined oral contraceptives, we suggest taking a look at the comparative table of two-phase and three-phase contraceptives. In addition to the names of drugs, doses of hormones and a brief commentary by a specialist are also indicated.

The only significant drawback of monophasic contraceptives is the presence of contraindications. These funds can not be started to drink on their own, a doctor's consultation and examination are first required. An incorrectly selected three-phase contraceptive can cause a whole range of side effects, which can be very difficult to treat.

Newest birth control pills: freedom of choice. Hormonal and non-hormonal, used after the act. Which of them is better to use?

The main priorities of modern medicine are caring for the preservation of a woman's reproductive health, protection and ensuring safe motherhood. It is no secret that Russia is in one of the first places in terms of the number of abortions. Abortion is a real operation that often results in infertility, menstrual irregularities, miscarriages, and even maternal death. The following conclusion can be drawn - measures to prevent abortions can help maintain a woman's health and give birth to a healthy child.

No wonder they say that children are the flowers of life. But each flower opens only at a certain time by nature. A woman has the right to give birth to a child whenever she wants, at any time in her life, so that the child is desired and happy. This fact is confirmed by law.

For the prevention of unwanted pregnancy and the prevention of abortions at a certain stage in a woman's life, an important role is played by contraception.

Contraception has been used by women since ancient times. So, even in ancient Africa, intravaginal herbal remedies were used in the form of a cocoon, and in America they used douching with decoctions of herbs, lemon juice, decoction of mahogany bark after sexual intercourse.

The number of contraceptives increased over time, but effective methods and reliable drugs appeared only in the 20th century.

New contraceptives appear almost every day. Science does not stand still. They are easy to use, reliable, safe for health, moreover, they have a therapeutic effect in certain diseases.

Currently, medicine offers various contraceptives, and a woman can always choose which methods and drugs to use. In our country, freedom of choice of contraceptives is ensured, but a woman cannot always decide on her own what is best for her. In deciding on the choice of a contraceptive, consultation with the attending physician will help - only a qualified specialist can assess the state of a woman's health, determine the indications for prescribing a particular method of contraception, offer the most the best drug for the patient.

Hormonal oral contraceptives

Every year more and more women use hormonal contraceptives. In Russia, over the past ten years, the use of hormonal contraceptives has increased by more than 5 times. Reliability, ease of use, a minimum of side effects, a beneficial effect on the organs and systems of the body allow hormonal drugs to find more and more grateful fans. Women today prefer hormonal oral contraceptives, as the most effective. Combined birth control pills are the gold standard of contraception, their effectiveness is 99%. The latest hormonal contraceptives have made a splash, a real revolution among other contraceptives.

The effectiveness of contraceptives is estimated by specialists by counting the number of unplanned pregnancies per 100 women during the year. This index is called the Pearl Index.

Types and composition of birth control pills

The first oral contraceptives appeared in the fifties and sixties of the XX century. The forerunner of all drugs for practical use is the contraceptive Enovid, which included 0.15 mg of mestranol and 15 mg of norethinodrel. Then the development of hormonal agents developed, and underwent the following changes:

• New contraceptive pills began to contain small doses of hormones, while at the same time their effectiveness and reliability were maintained.
• New analogues of female sex hormones were obtained: ethanyl estradiol and levonorgestrel.
• Third-generation progestogens appeared - norgestimate, desogestrel, gestodene.
• The latest contraceptives have been developed - mini-pills that do not contain progestogen.

Taking drugs with a low concentration of hormones helps to reduce side effects and complications.

Combined contraceptives contain two components in their composition:
1. Synthetic estrogen ethinyl estradiol, which is the estrogenic component of the drugs.
2. Progestogen component in the form of various progestogens.

All contraceptive pills, depending on the dosage of hormones, are divided into the following types:

• monophasic;
• two-phase;
• three-phase.

In monophasic hormonal contraceptives ax the daily dose of active ingredients is a constant value, and the composition may vary. It is clear that monophasic preparations consist of tablets with the same dose of hormones. These tablets are of the same color and are used during one course. Popular monophasic contraceptives include: Regulon, Marvelon, Silest, Novinet, Mercilon, Rigevidon.

Biphasic drugs involve changing doses of hormones twice per course, triphasic drugs - three times. Usually such tablets for one course have a different color. Biphasic contraceptives include Anteovin, three-phase contraceptives include Tri-merci, Triquilar, Tri-regol, Triziston.

Contraceptives "mini-drank" are monophasic, and are intended for the period of breastfeeding and lactation. These include: Lactinet, Exluton, Charozetta.

The action of combined oral contraceptives (COCs) is based on blocking ovulation. This way they protect against unplanned pregnancy. Only progestogen has the ability to block the ovulation process, the dose of which is the same in all combined birth control pills. The difference between micro-dose and low-dose drugs is only in the dosage of estrogen. Estrogens affect a woman's menstrual cycle.

Depending on the dosage of the active ingredients, contraceptive pills are divided into four types:

Microdosed birth control pills
As a rule, these drugs contain minimal doses of the hormone ethinyl estradiol. Side effects when using them are minimal. In some cases, they have the ability to eliminate hormonal disorders: acne (especially in adolescence), painful menstruation. These pills are best suited for young girls under 25 who have not given birth and are sexually active on a regular basis. They can also be used by mature women over 35 and women who have never used hormonal contraception. The most popular are: Tri-Merci, Jess, Mercilon, Lindinet -20, Klaira, Novinet.

Low dose birth control pills
The preparations contain the same ethinylestradiol, but in combination with various hormones: desogestrel, gestodene, norgestimate, dienogest or levonorgestrel. These birth control pills are recommended for young women who have given birth. In addition to the contraceptive effect, these funds have a pronounced antiandrogenic effect: they help eliminate unwanted facial hair growth, prevent the appearance of acne and hair loss due to hormonal imbalance. Popular tablets: Regulon, Belara, Marvelon, Yarina, Janine, Midiana, Femoden.

Medium dose birth control pills
As a rule, they contain two hormones: ethinylestradiol and levonorgestrel. Less commonly, they may contain other combinations of hormones. Medium-dose birth control pills are intended for women who have given birth, especially over 30 years of age. They also have an antiandrogenic effect, which is important for women who have not recovered from pregnancy and childbirth. However, when choosing a drug, one condition must be observed - these drugs are not suitable for nursing. Popular tablets: Diana 35, Demulen, Tri-regol, Chloe.

High dose birth control pills
They contain ethinylestradiol and levonorgestrel, but only in higher doses. Such funds are primarily used to treat and prevent hormonal diseases. Contraceptives of this type can be taken by women over 35 years of age, with the ineffectiveness of drugs with a low dosage of hormones. These include: Triquilar, Tri-regol, Ovidon, Milvane, Non-Ovlon.

The latest birth control pills: how to choose?

A woman wants a full life, and the fear and unwillingness of an unplanned pregnancy should not be a reason for refusing sexual relations. There are many ways to protect. The most reliable are birth control pills.

The choice of contraceptive is difficult, it should be approached seriously.

Ideally, a specialist should deal with the selection of contraceptives, but sometimes a woman herself decides which pills to take. In these cases, it is necessary to scrupulously collect information about the remedy. Where to start?
1. Acquainted with various types contraceptive drugs.
2. Compare all the pros and cons.
3. Define your goal - decide what you want to get as a result of using oral contraceptives.

What you need to know for right choice? Let's figure it out.

A woman should find information about drugs and their effects on the body. It should be borne in mind that birth control pills differ in parameters, degree of reliability and side effects.

Combined contraceptives usually contain two analogues of female sex hormones, so they are in the first place in terms of reliability. Combined oral agents are used both for protection against pregnancy and for the treatment of diseases and hormonal disorders. Women who opt for hormonal birth control pills are still advised to consult with their doctor and undergo a hormonal study.

New contraceptives are the so-called "mini-pill". They contain only one hormone - in this regard, the reliability of drugs is 90%. Their advantage is the possibility of use during lactation, as well as by women who have estrogen intolerance (which are part of COCs).

The next type of contraceptive pill is represented by means for emergency contraception. These tablets are not intended for long-term use, but are used immediately after sexual intercourse. The content of hormones in them is very high, so these funds can be used only once a month.

Currently, contraceptives of the second - fifth generations have appeared on the market. These the latest drugs contain a small dose of hormones, have mild side effects. It should be understood that there are no good or bad contraceptives. There are remedies that are suitable or not suitable for a woman. Therefore, for the selection of contraceptives, the individual characteristics of the body of a particular woman should be taken into account.

With self-selection, it is necessary, first of all, to determine the phenotype - the body type of a woman.

There are the following types of female phenotype:
1. With a predominance of estrogen - estrogenic type.
2. With a balance of estrogens and progestogens - a balanced type.
3. With a predominance of gestagens and androgens - progestogen type.

The phenotype is determined by the following features: general appearance, volume and condition of the mammary glands, skin type, the nature of menstruation, the duration of the menstrual cycle, the presence of toxicosis during a previous pregnancy, the woman's body weight and a tendency to be overweight.

A balanced phenotype is characterized by average values ​​of these traits. In this case, it is recommended to take Marvelon, Triquilar, Microgynon, Triziston, Mercilon, Tri-merci, Regulon.

With the predominance of the estrogen phenotype, a very feminine appearance, very long menstrual cycle, very abundant menstruation and vaginal discharge, moderate fullness. It is advisable to take drugs such as Anteovin, Minulet, Norinil, Rigevidon, Minisiston.

With the predominance of the gestagenic phenotype, all signs are less pronounced: unfeminine appearance, small volume of the mammary glands, scanty menstruation, a short duration of the menstrual cycle, oily skin. The following remedies are effective Bisecurin, Chloe, Non-ovlon, Yarina, Ovidon, Jess, Jeanine, Claira, Diana, Midian, Belara.

No matter how carefully the choice is made, it still happens that the drug is not suitable. The ideal selection method has not yet been invented. Often you have to act by "trial and error", but sometimes this is inevitable, because the body of each woman is unique.

It has been proven that the criterion for a successful choice of a contraceptive is the absence of menstruation for three months - i.e. period of adaptation. Then this drug can be taken for a long time.

Non-hormonal contraceptive pills

Along with hormonal contraceptives, non-hormonal contraceptive pills appeared at one time. Today, there is an increase in the popularity of these funds, which is explained by some features of their action.

The fact is that the use of non-hormonal birth control pills is not contraindicated for women immediately after childbirth, nursing mothers, as well as women who cannot take hormones. And another important detail: non-hormonal means to prevent pregnancy not only have the ability to destroy spermatozoa, but also contribute to the formation of a protective film on the vaginal mucosa, and thickening of mucus in the cervical canal. Moreover, active substances - spermicides - reduce the speed of spermatozoa, and the resulting mucus is a barrier to their penetration into the uterus. it good protection from unwanted pregnancy. Non-hormonal contraceptive pills, which is important in our time, protect a woman from sexually transmitted infections, as they have both antiseptic and antimicrobial effects.

It follows from this that non-hormonal contraceptives can be used by many women in different periods life. The use of tablets refers to the barrier chemical method of contraception. They are easy to use, do not disrupt the hormonal background, can be used at any reproductive age of a woman, and are the prevention of sexually transmitted diseases.

Contraceptive pills Pharmatex

The most popular non-hormonal contraceptive is currently Pharmatex. Pharmatex has spermicidal, antiseptic and antimicrobial effects.

In addition to the contraceptive effect, Pharmatex birth control pills prevent the transmission of sexual infections, reduce the risk of their consequences: infertility, miscarriage, cervical disease, tumors caused by HIV infection.

A huge advantage of using Pharmatex is that it in no way affects either the hormonal background or the vaginal microflora.

Pharmatex, like other non-hormonal tablets, affects such types of microorganisms as Trichomonas, gonococci, chlamydia, Candida fungi, herpes virus. Pharmatex acts locally, which does not give side effects on the organs and systems of the whole organism.

The use of vaginal tablets is more suitable for women in the postpartum period, during lactation and breastfeeding, after an abortion, with an irregular sexual life, when there is no permanent partner.

Mode of application
The manufacturer of funds, as a rule, attaches instructions for use. Basically, non-hormonal vaginal tablets are inserted into the vagina to a sufficient depth 10 minutes before sexual intercourse. For more convenient administration of tablets and other dosage forms, a special applicator is included in the package of the drug.

It is necessary to know that before each subsequent sexual intercourse, and in the case of sexual intercourse that occurred later than two hours after the administration of the pill, it is necessary to introduce a new tablet. Of course, this is inconvenient to a certain extent, since a woman cannot afford to re-administer the pill after casual or unexpected sex. She needs to plan the time of intercourse, which is unnatural.

It is believed that the effect of the drug lasts from 40 minutes to several hours. But it must be remembered that the use of vaginal tablets is not combined with water procedures before and after sexual contact using intimate hygiene products.

In some women, the drug may cause a burning sensation in the vagina. In this case, you should consult with your doctor about continuing or canceling Pharmatex. The reliability of Pharmatex is 80-82%.

Contraceptive suppositories and creams

Although the reliability of contraception vaginal preparations less high compared to hormonal contraceptives, yet they continue to gain popularity. An unwanted pregnancy can only lead to improper use of these funds.

In addition to tablets, manufacturers suggest using other dosage forms: suppositories, creams, ointments. The active substance in the suppositories is either nonoxynol or benzalkonium chloride.

Pharmatex is also available in various forms: in the form of vaginal suppositories, tampons, creams, capsules.

Benefits of using contraceptive suppositories
Contraceptive suppositories are easy to use, easy to insert into the vagina, and have minor side effects. Another advantage in the use of non-hormonal vaginal suppositories is the effect of additional lubrication. They are especially suitable for partners who have problems with natural lubrication and dryness in the genitals.

Vaginal suppositories protect a woman from sexually transmitted infections, are indispensable for casual sexual intercourse, with infrequent sexual intercourse, in the absence of a permanent partner.
Disadvantages in the use of contraceptive suppositories
Vaginal contraceptive suppositories can affect the microflora of the vagina, since in their composition, in addition to the active substance, they have acids. Burning and itching, allergic rashes that occur when using candles, are an indication for their cancellation.

Dosing
Candles are vaginal. The candle is inserted into the vagina 10 minutes before sexual intercourse. The drug works for 4 hours.

Tampon vaginal. The tampon is taken out of the package, with the help of a finger, it is inserted into the vagina, up to the cervix. The protection effect is immediate and lasts 24 hours. The tampon does not need to be changed during this period, which is very convenient. The tampon does not change even if there are several sexual intercourses that follow each other during the day. The tampon is removed no earlier than 2 hours after the last sexual intercourse, but no later than 24 hours after its first insertion into the vagina.

Cream vaginal. It is inserted into the vagina with a special syringe. The device should be filled to the mark without the formation of air bubbles. Then slowly insert into the vagina before intercourse. The introduction is made lying down. The action of the remedy begins immediately, and lasts about 10 hours. Before repeated sexual contact, it is necessary to introduce a portion of the cream again.

Popular drugs: Pharmatex, Nonoxynol, Patentex Oval, Contraceptin T.

Birth control pills after intercourse

One method that prevents an unintended pregnancy is called emergency contraception. This is the only protection for emergency situations: rape, coercion to sexual contact and mental conditions associated with them. Also, emergency contraception is used during unprotected intercourse, as a post-coital protection against a possible pregnancy.

Sometimes this method is simply called: emergency, fire, emergency contraception, contraception the next morning after. But still, it is correct to call it emergency, since this method is used in emergency situations.

Emergency contraception aims to prevent pregnancy at the following stages: ovulation, fertilization and fixation of a fertilized egg in the endometrium ( inner layer uterine mucosa).

• in emergencies associated with violent actions by a partner, as well as in violation of the integrity of the condom or skipping the birth control pill for a woman;
• with rare sexual contact;
• during unprotected sex, when no methods of contraception were used.

Contraindications for this method are the same as for taking other birth control pills, namely:

• thrombosis and thromboembolism (even in history);
• liver disease with a high degree of insufficiency;
• kidney disease;
• oncological diseases.

For this method, hormonal preparations containing estrogens, combined hormonal contraceptives, as well as preparations containing gestagens and intrauterine devices can be used.

Estrogens for emergency contraception in recent times are not used so often, because they contain high doses of hormones, which leads to side effects - nausea and vomiting.

Combined birth control pills are used within 72 hours after sexual intercourse, twice, with a break of 12 hours. You can use any drug from this group.

The most well-known drug for emergency contraception in Russia is Postinor. It is recommended to take it twice, one tablet at a time. The first tablet is taken no later than 72 hours after sexual intercourse, the second - 12 hours after the first.

The second drug for emergency contraception - Escapelle - is taken once within 96 hours after sexual intercourse.

Combined oral contraceptives are taken daily for 21 days. Then a break of 7 days is taken, and the next package of the drug begins. The course begins with an active tablet.

"Mini-drank" are taken without interruption. Immediately after the end of the package, the reception of the next one begins.

Reception break

Birth control pills are recommended to be taken for a long time, but once a year you should see a gynecologist. If the doctor does not determine contraindications to taking your usual remedies, then you can safely continue taking them.

Menstruation while taking

When taking COCs, periods may stop if taken for a long time. When using other oral contraceptives, periods may become scanty and last for a shorter time.

If the intake of contraceptives was regular, without gaps and breaks, but the menstruation stopped, then it is necessary to continue taking them.

But if the reception was irregular, it is worth suspecting the onset of pregnancy, urgently stop using the contraceptive and contact a gynecologist to identify it.

Menstruation after cancellation

Menstruation is fully restored within one to two months after the abolition of birth control pills. According to experts, about 80% of women have a planned pregnancy. If within six months the menstruation has not recovered, you should consult a doctor.

Bleeding on admission

After the start of taking the pills, a woman may experience spotting spotting. The course should not be interrupted for this reason. Smearing discharge disappears as the reception continues.

If you experience heavy bleeding, you should consult your doctor.

Can you get pregnant while taking birth control pills?

Pregnancy can only occur if the contraceptive regimen is violated. If the delay in taking the pill is more than 12 hours, the effectiveness of the contraceptive action weakens.

Another situation is that a woman vomits when taking it. Then you need to take the next pill, because the first one has not been absorbed. With repeated vomiting, it is better to switch to another type of drug. The same actions should be taken with loose stools.

The reliability of contraceptive contraceptives may decrease when taking other drugs - for example, antibiotics, St. John's wort, etc. In this case, the use of additional method contraception.

How long can the tablets be taken?

Unfortunately, the fear of hormonal drugs in Russian women is transmitted from generation to generation. Women ask a lot of questions, trying to find answers to them.

According to scientists, fifth-generation contraceptives have already appeared in Russia, which have a slight side effect. But the number of questions is not decreasing.

Is it possible to take birth control pills constantly, for more than a year?

In the absence of side effects of the means taken by a woman, as well as medical contraindications for their use, it is allowed to take contraceptives for a long time, even several years. Changing pills to others, or interruptions in taking, are not useful, but on the contrary, they are harmful. The body tunes in to one type of pill, the transition to other contraceptives makes it work in a different rhythm. Research scientists have proven that interruptions do not affect the frequency of complications, and the development of subsequent pregnancies.

Pregnancy after stopping birth control pills

Calculations confirm that pregnancy can occur immediately after the withdrawal of birth control pills, or after a short period of time. Interestingly, after the abolition of the probability of pregnancy increases several times. Doctors use this circumstance in the treatment of infertility.

Can you stop taking birth control pills?

A woman has the right to stop taking a contraceptive when she wants.

Which is better: birth control pills or a spiral?

Women often ask: "Isn't it better to insert an intrauterine device than to take pills?" Again, the same fear of hormones makes you think about the abolition of combined oral remedies. It must be borne in mind that the spiral is a foreign body in the uterine cavity, which can cause inflammation. Tablets are more reliable and safe.

The best birth control pills

We have already said that it is impossible to determine the best pills for a particular woman. Every woman should opt for pills that are just right for her. At present, drugs of the fifth generation have already appeared, and such side effects as fullness and infertility are a thing of the past. Modern contraceptives contain minimal doses of hormones and have virtually no side effects. Let's try to give short descriptions of some drugs.

Jess

Jess contraceptive pills are a new, practical solution for preventing unwanted pregnancies for young women. This drug contains small doses of estrogen - 20 mcg, and progestogen drospirenone - 3 mg, which reduces the risk of vascular complications. Tablets are well tolerated, do not negative impact to the gastrointestinal tract.

This tool belongs to the fourth generation of contraceptives.

Jess provides reliable protection, controls the menstrual cycle, is used to treat symptoms of premenstrual syndrome, acne, has a beneficial effect on hair, nails. At the same time, the weight of women using Jess remains stable. The period of adaptation to the contraceptive is 1-2 months.

No wonder the drug Jess is called the contraceptive of the twenty-first century.

Novinet

The action of the new contraceptive Novinet is based on blocking ovulation and the production of luteinizing hormone. This allows you to delay the movement of sperm into the uterus by increasing the viscosity of the mucus in the cervical canal.

The drug has minimal side effects, does not cause pain during menstruation, does not affect the weight gain of a woman.

When taking Novinet, nausea, rarely vomiting, partial hair loss, headaches may occur.

Breastfeeding women can start taking the drug three weeks after giving birth. It should be remembered that Novinet dramatically increases the amount of breast milk.

Reviews about Novinet are mostly positive.

Janine

Jeanine refers to monophasic low-dose contraceptives. The contraceptive effect of the drug is due to a combination of three actions: inhibition of ovulation, an increase in the viscosity of the cervical secretion and changes in the endometrium in terms of eliminating the introduction of spermatozoa.

Active substances dienogest and ethinylestradiol.

Janine take 1 tablet daily for three weeks. Then they take a break for a week, after which the course is repeated.

Reviews of Janine prove a really pronounced contraceptive effect.

Regulon

Regulon is a combined oral contraceptive. Active substances - 0.03 mg of ethinylestradiol and 0.15 mg of desogestrel. Regulon acts similarly to the previous drug.

Regulon helps with menstrual disorders, uterine bleeding.

Reviews about Regulon
Women who took this drug note the quality of the drug and its reliability. Regulon acts much softer than other drugs. It was often recommended by doctors for use by teenagers and young girls. With prolonged use, it does not cause side effects, reliably protects against unwanted pregnancy and does not contribute to weight gain.

Women who used it for medicinal purposes speak positively about Regulon. The drug helps with uterine bleeding, abundant vaginal discharge improves the quality and appearance of hair, nails and skin.

Yarina

The drug Yarina is also popular in Russia. This is an effective new generation oral contraceptive. The active substances are drospirenone and ethinylestradiol.

The drug is well tolerated and has few side effects. During the reception, the woman's weight remains unchanged, there is no nausea and vomiting, a therapeutic effect is expressed - a decrease in premenstrual symptoms, symptoms of seborrhea, acne.

Women taking Yarina noted the high reliability of the drug, as well as an improvement in mood, restoration of libido, and normalization of the menstrual cycle.

Minimum cost monthly intake drug in Russia ranges from 600 rubles.

Logest

Logest is a modern contraceptive of a new generation. It contains the minimum amount of hormones. In addition to a stable contraceptive effect, it has a therapeutic and prophylactic effect on the course of female oncological diseases, which is an advantage of the drug.

The action of the drug is based on the inhibition of ovulation, an increase in the viscosity of the secret, which makes it difficult for the movement of sperm and prevents the implantation of the egg in the uterus.

The tablets are taken on the first day of the menstrual cycle. Take 1 tablet daily for 21 days. Then they take a week break, after which the course is repeated.

With the abolition of the drug, the body's ability to conceive is fully restored.

The price of the drug ranges from 330 to 450 rubles per pack.

claira

More recently, new contraceptive pills Qlaira have appeared in our country. Qlaira is the first fifth-generation contraceptive, the latest and highest quality contraceptive.

Qlaira refers to natural oral contraceptives. For the first time, ethinylestradiol as an active substance was not included in the combined hormonal preparation for contraception. It has been successfully replaced by the milder and safer hormone estradiolavalerate, which is a hormone with a natural formula. This hormone is well studied, and is used mainly to treat the symptoms of menopause.

To enhance contraceptive functions, scientists added the active substance dienogest to estradiol valeriate, which also solved the problem of intermenstrual bleeding.

The procedure for taking the drug has also been changed. It has a unique dynamic dosing mode. Qlaira is four-phase hormonal drug. The package contains two placebo tablets, that is, they do not contain the active ingredient, and 26 active tablets with different doses of the active substance. The doses of estrogen when taken are gradually reduced, and the doses of progestogen are increased. This dosing regimen increases the effectiveness of the drug several times.

At the present stage of development of contraception, Qlaira is revolutionary, providing a high degree of protection and treatment of women's diseases.

Despite a very large selection of contraceptive pills, in our country remains high percentage abortions. Women do not have sufficient information about drugs, they experience a panic fear of using hormonal drugs, not allowing the idea that safe and reliable contraceptives have appeared at the present stage. New generation contraceptive pills containing lower doses of active substances can help women plan pregnancy without being at risk of complications and abortions.

Before use, you should consult with a specialist.

Today, every couple can plan for the birth of children and control their sex life thanks to the merits of the pharmaceutical industry. A huge selection of contraceptives allows you to choose the appropriate method of protection against pregnancy and / or sexually transmitted infections.

Overview of some contraceptives

The list of means and methods of protection is estimated at a dozen positions or more. This is the calendar method, the use of spermicides (the so-called non-hormonal pills and suppositories), and common condoms, and hormonal patches, rings, and the intrauterine device, and injections, and patches, and oral contraceptives. More about each method, and especially birth control pills, - below.

Coitus interruptus

The most unreliable options for contraception are coitus interruptus and the calendar method. PPA is generally difficult to call a method of contraception. The essence of the method is to remove the penis before ejaculation.

In 60% of couples who are protected by PPA, pregnancy occurs in the first year of using the method. Yes, and according to statistics, 80% of women who became pregnant "accidentally" were protected precisely by interrupted intercourse. The problem is that not all men feel the onset of ejaculation. One "wrong" move, and the likelihood of getting pregnant increases significantly.

calendar method

The method is slightly more efficient than the previous one - 65%. There are 10-15 pregnancies per 100 women who take the risk of contraception in this way. This method becomes more relevant after 30 than for young girls. Only girls and women with a regular menstrual cycle can afford to be protected in this way.

The essence of the method is to calculate the so-called dangerous days on the calendar and not have sex during this period. In general, from the 16th day until the expected start of the next menstruation, the probability of conception is greatest. The most dangerous days fall in the middle of the cycle - from the 12th to the 18th day of the cycle (with a 28-day cycle).

Cons: errors, an irregular cycle, in which it is almost impossible to accurately calculate the day of ovulation, hormonal disruptions. There are other nuances - if sexual intercourse occurred a few days before the expected ovulation, spermatozoa can live in the genital tract for several days and fertilize the egg even after such a seemingly long time. To increase the reliability of this method of contraception, you need to learn how to correctly calculate dangerous days. In addition to the calendar method, you can use ovulation test strips or follow the charts of basal temperature.

Spermicides and non-hormonal pills

Another not so much effective method(70% reliability) - spermicides. These are special substances that are introduced into the vagina and have a negative effect on spermatozoa, after which they can no longer fertilize the female egg. Drugs with a similar mechanism of action are sold in pharmacies in the form of suppositories, creams, capsules or tablets, which are injected directly inside before sex.

Such non-hormonal (which ones are better to choose, reviews of different types- further) are used by many women who, for one reason or another, are afraid to take conventional OK (oral contraceptives). Such non-hormonal tablets are recommended for use in premenopausal women, patients with impaired functioning endocrine system, individual sensitivity and adverse reaction to conventional OK. Importantly, these can be used for HB (breastfeeding).

How to choose non-hormonal contraceptives? The rating of the best is presented by such tablets:

1. Pharmatex. Available in the form of tablets, cream and suppositories. The average price of a pack of 12 tablets is 250 rubles.
2. "Gynekoteks". The same form of release, the price is 100 rubles for the same 12 tablets.
3. Benatex. The cost of 10 tablets is 250-300 rubles.
4. "Erotex". Price 5 pcs. - 110 rubles.
5. "Contratex".

How to choose tablets? It is advisable to consult a doctor, otherwise it is worth focusing on personal feelings when using. Some pills, for example, cause itching in some women, which disappears when switching to another brand of drugs.

Barrier contraception

Barrier methods protect not only from conception and unwanted pregnancy, but also from sexually transmitted infections. But the reliability of such means is not 100% (moreover, not a single contraceptive is 100% reliable, except for complete abstinence from any kind of sexual contact), but is only about 85%. Barrier methods include the use of condoms, but they can also break, and then all efforts will go in vain, and lubricate the sensations of sexual intercourse.

Hormonal patches and ring

Other non-invasive methods include patches and a hormone ring. The effectiveness of such funds reaches 92%. The patch adheres to the skin, but is noticeable, requires regular replacement, and is not suitable for use by women over 90 kg. The ring is inserted into the vagina, but also has disadvantages: in some cases, it can cause a change in the nature of menstrual bleeding and disrupt the regularity of menstruation. These methods do not have contraceptive side effects such as treating acne, relieving PMS symptoms, or preventing seborrhea.

Implants and injections

Hormonal implants and injections are essentially the same oral contraceptives, that is, birth control pills, only with a different mechanism of action. If substances from tablets are absorbed through the digestive tract, then injectable contraceptives are administered intramuscularly. The frequency of injections is once a month or every three months. Implants are inserted into the shoulder and require replacement only once every five years. The effectiveness of the methods is 90-99%.

Such contraception, however, can cause migraines, changes in the menstrual cycle, hormonal disruptions, decreased sex drive or weight gain. Injections and implants are generally not used by young women who have not yet given birth, this method of contraception is more suitable for women in their thirties and forties who do not plan to have a child in the near future.

Intrauterine device

The second most effective method of contraception after birth control pills is the intrauterine device. The method also refers to the barrier, only the spiral is installed in the uterine cavity, preventing the embryo from fixing. But the installation of a spiral can cause a change in the nature of menstruation, sometimes causes pain, increases the risk of developing various inflammations and the onset ectopic pregnancy.

Oral contraceptives

Oral contraceptives protect against unwanted pregnancy, but not against sexually transmitted diseases. The latest birth control pills have an additional effect: many drugs contain the active form of folic acid, so they alleviate the symptoms of PMS, have an antidepressant effect, help fight acne, improve skin and hair. The reliability of OK is 99.7%, but this method of contraception requires prior consultation with a gynecologist, the care and organization of a woman when taking it. It is about this method of planned contraception that will be discussed further.

Classification of OK according to the content of hormones

Everything is divided by 2 large groups: combined oral contraceptives (COCs) and mini-pills. COCs contain an estrogen analogue and a progestogen. The mechanism of action of such pills is that they block the onset of ovulation (the maturation of the egg and its readiness for conception), make the implantation of the egg into the uterine cavity impossible due to "glandular regression" and thicken the mucus, which disrupts the progression of spermatozoa to the female reproductive cell.

COCs are divided into groups according to the variation of hormones and their content. So, there are monophasic, two- and three-phase tablets (more on them later), as well as microdosed, low-dosed and high-dosed COCs. Microdosed OK are suitable for young girls, since the content of active substances in tablets is minimal. The rating of contraceptive pills of this type is presented as follows:

1. "Jess".
2. Marvelon.
3. "Klayra" (the only three-phase tablets in the list of microdosed).
4. "Dimia".
5. "Zoeli".
6. "Logest".
7. Mercilon.
8. "Lindinette".
9. "News".

Low-dose OCs are suitable for both young and older women, and can be used by those patients who experience intermenstrual bleeding when using microdose tablets. Such birth control pills are suitable for women who have given birth. In addition, low-dose OCs prevent hair growth in unwanted places, eliminate increased oily skin and acne, and reduce the manifestations of seborrhea.

1. "Yarina.
2. Tablets "Janine".
3. "Silhouette".
4. "Diana".
5. Tablets "Femoden".
6. "Three-merci".
7. "Lindinette".
8. Tablets "Silest".
9. "Minisiston" and others.

High-dose OK can be taken only on the recommendation of a gynecologist. Such drugs are used, as a rule, for therapeutic purposes (for the treatment of endometriosis, hormonal disorders and other diseases). In the ranking of contraceptive pills with a high concentration of hormones, such OK:

1. "Non-Ovlon".
2. "Trikivlar".
3. "Ovidon".
4. "Trieseston".
5. "Three-Regol".

Another type of contraceptive - mini-pill - contains only progestogen. Mini-pills affect the reproductive system only at the local level:

• increase the viscosity and amount of cervical mucus, which interferes with the free movement of spermatozoa;
• change the biochemical and morphological structure of the uterine endometrium, which makes it impossible to fix the embryo even in the case of fertilization.

Mini-pills completely block ovulation in only half of women, but this does not affect the reliability of pills as a method of protection.

1. "Charozetta" (800 rubles per pack).
2. "Laktinet" (530 rubles).
3. "Orgametril" (1100 rubles).
4. "Exluton" (1250 rubles).

There is also emergency contraception, which is used if unprotected sex has occurred, which can lead to pregnancy. These birth control pills are taken within 72 hours after sex. A common example of this type of OK is Postinor. You need to take birth control pills within 72 hours after having sex, otherwise there will be no effect from emergency contraception. You can not use such drugs constantly.

Monophasic, two- and three-phase preparations

COCs also differ in the variation in the content of hormones, dividing into monophasic, two- and three-phase. In monophasic tablets, the percentage of substances does not change in each tablet, in two-phase tablets, the ratio of active components changes in the first and second halves of the cycle, in three-phase tablets, the percentage of substances changes three times per package.

Monophasic birth control pills:

• "Regulon";
• "Rigevidon";
• "Janine";
• "Silhouette";
• "Lindinet";
• "Logest";
• "Femoden";
• "Microgynon" and others.

Biphasic OK:

• "Femoston";
• "Binovum";
• "Bifazil";
• "Adepal";
• "Anteovin" and others.

Three-phase drugs are represented by Tri-Merci, Triziston, Tri-Regol and others.

How to choose the right birth control pills

You cannot choose birth control pills on your own or even with the help of a pharmacist in a pharmacy. To find the right contraceptive, you need to go to the doctor. The gynecologist will interview the patient, find out if there are any diseases (whether they were in the past) and which ones, and will conduct an examination. During the examination, the gynecologist will measure the weight of the patient, arterial pressure, assess the condition of the skin, palpate the chest and prescribe tests. You may also need to visit an ophthalmologist, as long-term use of OCs increases the risk of various diseases eye.

The pills that are best for the patient, the doctor chooses depending on the phenotype. The phenotype takes into account the growth and appearance of a woman, the mammary glands, the degree of hair growth, the condition of the skin, hair, existing chronic diseases, the nature and frequency of menstruation, the presence and severity of PMS, and so on.

There are three main phenotypes:

1. Women of short or medium stature, whose skin and hair are prone to dryness. Menstruation is profuse and long, the cycle is more than 28 days. Such patients are suitable for medium and high-dose COCs, for example, "Milvane", "Trisiston", "Femoden" and others.
2. Women of average height, with normal oily hair and skin, with medium-sized breasts. There are no symptoms of PMS in this type of women or they do not cause negative, painful sensations. The menstrual cycle is standard - 5 days, every 28 days. Suitable tablets are Marvelon, Regulon, Tri-Merci, Silest, Logest, Tri-Regol and others (most COCs on the market).
3. Women who are different tall, underdeveloped mammary glands, oily hair and skin. Menstruation is frequent and painful, but scanty, PMS symptoms are often severe. The tablets "Yarina", "Jess", "Zoeli", "Dimia" are suitable.

When choosing means of preventing unwanted pregnancy, women are increasingly inclined to take hormonal contraceptives. And this is not surprising, because. the principle of action of this kind of drugs laid the foundations of female physiology. Taking oral contraceptives, a woman reconfigures her hormonal system in such a way that it does not occur. Let's take a closer look at the new generation of contraceptives that are most commonly used to prevent pregnancy.

How are oral contraceptives classified?

Oral contraceptives of the new generation are usually divided into several groups, each of which is suitable for a certain category of women. reproductive age. That is why the selection of this kind of medication should be carried out exclusively by the doctor who examined and assessed the state of the female body.

To date, the most popular are the so-called contraceptives containing hormones in a microdose. The fact is that the use of such pills passes almost without a trace for the hormonal female system. They are also ideal for young women who are using this method of contraception for the first time. The most popular among women are the following drugs:

• Logest;
• Mercilon;
• Novinet;
• Lindinet-20;
• Qlaira;
• Yarina;
• Jess.

The next group of hormonal contraceptives of the new generation include the so-called low-dose drugs. These tablet medicines are the best option for those women who have not yet given birth and have regular sex. Among these drugs it is necessary to name:

• Belara;
• Silest;
• Marvelon;
• minisiston;
• Femodene;
• Microgynon.

Drugs with a medium-dose inclusion of a hormonal base include drugs such as:

• Diana-35;
• Chloe;
• Desmoulins;
• Triziston;
• Milvan.

They can be used in women who have given birth.

High-dose hormonal contraceptives, in addition to their main purpose, can also be used for therapeutic purposes in the treatment of gynecological disorders. Such preparations are recommended for women of mature age who lead a constant sexual life. Among these drugs, Ovidon, Non-Ovlon are usually used.

What should be considered when choosing a drug and its use?

The list of oral hormonal contraceptives of the new generation is very large, only some of the drugs that are used most often are listed above. However, such a wide variety of this group of medicines does not mean that a woman can independently choose from those offered in the pharmacy network those that her friend advised her or that she liked.

Such medications should be selected strictly individually. It has been proven that self-use of oral contraceptives can adversely affect health female and become an obstacle to conception when a woman decides to give birth to a baby.

It should also be noted that prolonged use of the same drug can affect the hormonal system of a woman. That is why doctors recommend at least 3-4 months to come for an examination and consultation.

Considering all the above features of the use of new generation contraceptives, it is impossible to single out the best of them for the simple reason that each organism is individual, and this type of contraception is not suitable in principle for some categories of women.
