This document summarizes the different types of contraceptive methods, including barrier methods such as condoms and IUDs, hormonal methods such as patches and rings, permanent methods such as tubal ligation and vasectomy, and natural methods such as the calendar and breastfeeding. It explains that each method works differently to prevent pregnancy, whether by blocking the passage of sperm, preventing ovulation, or taking advantage of periods of natural infertility.

CONCLUSION

What has been presented throughout this work allows us to arrive at the following

conclusions

Regarding the concept of contraceptive methods, it can be defined as


substances, objects or procedures used by women and/or men
to prevent a pregnancy, among which there are 4
methods classified as: barrier, hormonal, permanent and natural.

About barrier methods, they prevent sperm from


access the uterus and unlike other contraceptive methods, the methods
barriers are only used when you have sexual intercourse. We can
highlight the following:

Male or female condoms, which are the only methods


contraceptives that protect against sexually transmitted infections
including infection with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). These
they can be more effective if used with spermicide containing
chemical products that prevent sperm from reaching the egg. They are placed
in the vagina before having sexual relations, with the aim of avoiding
pregnancies. The sponge and the diaphragm, both are placed in the cervix,
the difference is that the sponge contains spermicide. Finally, the Device
Intrauterine (IUD) is a small device that is placed in the uterus to
prevent pregnancies. It is durable, reversible, and one of the methods
the most effective contraceptives that exist. Both copper IUDs and
hormonal methods prevent pregnancies by changing how it moves
sperm, so that it cannot reach an egg. If the sperm does not reach an
without an egg, a pregnancy cannot occur.

As for hormonal methods, they constitute a method based on the


use of hormones that, administered to the body, produce an effect
fairly effective contraceptive and are a help for good planning
familiar. The three types we mentioned (patch, ring, and implant)
contraceptive) try to prevent an egg (ovulation) from being released every month and
this is how to avoid getting pregnant. Other methods thicken the mucus in the
front part of the cervix and thus prevent sperm
they reach the uterus.

Permanent contraceptive methods are an option for those


people who make the decision to no longer have the possibility of pregnancy.
There are two:

Tubal ligation or Salpingostomy: It is a surgical method performed on


the woman, and it involves sealing or blocking the fallopian tubes to thus prevent
that the ovum meets the sperm. Rendering the
female reproductive system, for reproductive purposes. For the intervention
general anesthesia is used, and it lasts for 15 to 30 minutes; it
requires hospitalization for a few hours and after this,
It is recommended to allocate 5 to 7 days for recovery at home.

Vasectomy: This procedure is performed on men; it involves cutting


the vas deferens of the scrotum that go to the testicles, to thus
interrupt the path of the sperm and prevent them from being expelled;
however, the man continues to ejaculate other fluids. Unlike the
tubal ligation, this procedure does not require hospitalization
hospital, since the man can go home as soon as it is done
operation.

Finally, the natural alternative methods that have accompanied the


humanity for centuries. They are considered less effective than the
modern contraceptives, the advantage of these methods is that they respect the
delicate hormonal balance of our body, they are not harmful to the environment
environment and you can use several at the same time. Among which we can mention: The
of the calendar, which consists of knowing which days are fertile and which days one can
having relationships without being prone to getting pregnant using formulas,
but if the difference between the shortest cycle and the longest is 10 days or
More, this method CANNOT be used. One of the most commonly used as well.
it is the interruption of coitus which consists of withdrawing the penis from the vagina and from

the external genitalia of a woman before ejaculation to avoid the


pregnancy. The objective of the method of interrupting intercourse is to prevent that
semen enters the vagina.

It also mentions breastfeeding, which is a method


contraceptive used in the first 6 months postpartum, by women who
they are exclusively breastfeeding and in amenorrhea. It is the only method

considered natural because in the postpartum period, during lactation,


The woman naturally has a period of infertility.
