Birth Control

Although there are many different forms of birth control, some women are afraid to take any of each because they are scared of the side effects. The most common that these pills have as an effect relates with the issue of gaining weight.

Ask a woman who is not afraid of getting fat. You will not find so many. But if indeed there is a case wherein a woman chooses to gain more weight for health related issues, they will resort to other means. This is especially true if the person involved is not sexually active and don't have a dependence on birth control pills.

But if the person who wants to gain weight and has also used the pills, she may just continue doing so for the purpose of adding up more pounds. There is nothing wrong with that especially if she is only doing what she thinks is right.

A woman knows her body better than anybody else. But to get a scientific truth to the claims, she may also opt to see a doctor to ask for advice on what pills to take for the purpose of adding more weight. If that is not what she wants to happen, she may also ask for a suitable birth control that will match her body type.

Other Forms of Birth Control

If you don't want to depend on the pills to avoid getting pregnant, there are other types of contraception that you can choose from. For whatever reasons, may it be because you don't want to add on to your weight or whatever else, here are some of the other types that you can choose to avail.

Implant Contraception

Through this method, a rod will be inserted under a woman's skin. This rod will release small amounts of progestin, a type of hormone, into the bloodstream. This is not so popular because it causes heavy bleeding.

A female condom is not a new concept in the market though it is not as popular as the male condom. However, this flexible, thin, loose-fitting tube worn inside the vagina is slowly but surely gaining popularity. The device which is female controlled, the only of it's kind, has two soft rings. One ring holds down at the cervix in the time of intercourse while the other one stays outside the vulva, partly or partially covering the lipped area. It is a form of protection that bars sexual fluids including blood, semen or saliva from being shared between partners. It has a good record of effectiveness in preventing sexually transmitted diseases including HIV/AIDS and unwanted pregnancies. It is available as an over the counter product with instructions for the user.

A female condom is quite user-friendly though they might appear awkward with a first timer. They get easier with practice whereby you can insert them even eight hours before sexual encounter. Do not be in a rush when inserting this wonderful devise into your vagina but take time. You can lie down or stand up with one foot resting on a chair or better still, sit with your legs spread apart. With the condom in place you can decide to use lubrication during pumping to hold the condom in place. Addition of spermicide prior or after insertion can be an added advantage as it reduces the risk of pregnancy. However, a male condom and a female condom should not be used concurrently!

Always be cautious not to twist the condom during or after insertion. At least one inch of the open ended condom side stays outside the vagina. Spread out the lips using one hand while inserting the other squeezed part into the vagina. Push it using the inner ring a few inches after passing the pubic bone and past the now accessible cervix. During intercourse, the outer most ring should be held in place to avoid the female condom from slipping. The hand holding the condom in place can be used to stroke the clitoris to increase stimulation and heighten pleasure. After you are through with intercourse, twist and squeeze the outer most ring to arrest all the fluids inside the female condom inclusive of sperms. Do not be hasty but pull out gently and dispose it away.

There is no device that is as flexible as a female condom. It also doubles up as a dental dam. This is a counter measure taken to prevent transmission of sexual infections during the time of oral sex. The condom is simply cut at the closed end and then down one side. This results into a rectangular sheet that is then placed over the mouth of a partner or spread over the genitalia. A female condom harbors no side effects. However, there are chances it might break or slip during sexual intercourse. In case of such an accident happening, a woman can quickly take an emergency pill to prevent a pregnancy from occurring.

POP stands for Progestin Only Pills. This mini pill has no estrogen. This is best for mothers who are breastfeeding their babies. Why so? Because estrogen has been said to reduce a woman's ability to produce milk. One must take this type at an exact time every day.

This is ideal in lessening the blood loss during menstruation. In doing so, it also alleviates the cramps and other pains that a woman suffers from when they have their menstrual period. But as a side effect, a woman may suffer from spotting every time period.

Let me tell you about a location frequently preferred by TV
stations to shoot their tele-novelas -

- like the comedy/drama series "My Girl" and the drama
series "Iisa Pa Lamang" (Only One).

It is located in a prime commercial area,

projected Php 18,000/month (US$ 300 - 400) on the
smallest studio unit, with option to use.

You also have the option to sell your unit, should you
decide to do so later.

The Professionalized Lancaster "Condotel" concept
ensures fair and equitable distribution of the "Condotel"
income.

The Gross Income of the Unit is computed by getting the
Condotel Gross Room Revenues, Deducting the Total
Cost of Operation, Financial Charges (if any), and Taxes to

Family planning is a necessity in our society today because of the fact that the earth's resources are becoming less and less every year and in a study it is estimated that there would be 12 million infant births in 2025 alone. From 8 million in 2019 every year there is an increase of 1.004 million births.

Looking into these statistics the effectiveness of birth control as it relates the number of infant births per year is still pretty high. The campaign of different sectors of government has become more and more aggressive in the past few years targeting larger urban areas in big cities.

Even with the heightened awareness about the importance of family planning and birth control methods the effectiveness of the campaign still remains underwhelming in terms of results.

Some of the factors that may contribute to the lack of positive results of the campaign on birth control is the fact some people still are not aware of the different methods that are available to them. In the past it has been the problem for some government agencies to make people accept contraception because of the massive disagreement that Catholics showed saying that it is only God that can give and take people's lives.

Of course these people are talking about abortion which in fact is not a form of contraception nor is it a form of family planning or birth control.

Abortion is in fact a crime in a lot of countries and most of the states of the US.

If people protests against birth control because they believe it is a form of abortion then that means they are under informed and that they are ignorant to the concept of Natural birth control. Because of the opposition that contraception received from moralists and religious orders, the concept of Natural birth control was introduced. Though the confusion of the idea caused people not to believe in it at first, it has been regarded as more favorable by the anti-contraception groups.

Here's a brief look at the history of birth control. Although pills are very much in demand to avoid getting pregnant for women, these are also causing quite a stir.

The reason for this is because birth control pills are known for one side effect. More and more women are complaining that the pills cause them to gain weight. For the ladies who use the pill just to avoid the risk of pregnancy, this is definitely not a good news.

When a woman gains weight because of the pills, it causes her to look at the other options. But not everybody is affected of this kind of side effect. Some women don't have weight issues regarding the use of birth control pills.

But for the women who are prone to such effect, there are other forms of birth control that they can choose to use. They can go the natural way or the rhythm method. This is where the partners will become involved in a sexual act only when the female is not fertile.

There are methods that are being injected and inserted to the women's genitals to obtain same effect as the pills. And among the popular ones is through the use of condoms. Nowadays, both men and women have condoms suited for their private parts.

The History

The oldest form of birth control can be the sexual abstinence. But aside from it, the withdrawal effect can also be considered as one.

Coined as the coitus interruptus, this means that the penis of a man will withdraw from the woman's genitals before the ejaculation. This prevents him from transmitting into the lady or his partner any vital sperm that may cause pregnancy. But this requires a lot of self control on the part of men.
