Technique interrupt intercourse - a method of preventing pregnancy, in which a man, feeling the approach of orgasm, remove the penis from the vagina before ejaculation occurs (ejaculation). This method of contraception is practiced mostly young couples or partners who do not want to mess with "medical" methods of contraception or condom use.

According to statistics, in 2008, the technique used interrupted intercourse four percent of established couples. Although this is a fairly unreliable method (not every man has the necessary self-control), it is still much better than no contraception, such as spontaneous sexual intercourse.

On the method

If you use the method of sexual intercourse is constantly interrupted, you do at least something to prevent pregnancy .  But statistics show that couples who rely solely on technique interrupted sexual intercourse, yet pregnant .  Furthermore, interruption of sexual act adversely affects the nervous system of man .  In his brain there is a conflict of motivation .  On the one hand, during intercourse excitation increases brain growth picks enjoyment and it tends to extend as long as possible .  On the other hand, a man with such a growing field should retain control of himself enough time to define the approach of ejaculation and time to remove the penis from the woman's vagina to prevent sperm getting there .  It does not give him the opportunity to relax and enjoy the process .  A sharp change in sexual arousal sudden braking may cause an error the basic nervous processes - excitation and inhibition, which impairs their mobility, resulting in disorders of the nervous system, the development of neurosis Neurosis - reaction to the nervous shock , Malfunction of the internal organs, and premature ejaculation, erectile dysfunction and deterioration Erection - what hinders and what helps a man to be a man . Women also have to monitor the moment of orgasm with a partner, that distracts and disturbs the natural palette to receive sensations inherent in sexual intercourse.

In addition, after an interrupted sexual intercourse, both partners should wash thoroughly, regardless of whether they plan to continue a sexual marathon. A man should help (to get rid of the remnants of sperm), and then thoroughly wash the penis to get rid of the remnants of semen outside. A woman must wash if the semen got on her body.

How effective method of Withdrawal

As a method of protection against unwanted pregnancy, sexual intercourse interruption technique is certainly better than nothing. However, doctors do not recommend to use it all the time, for the following reasons:

• it is not reliable (reliability - 25%) - a man does not always have time to get out of the vagina before ejaculation;
• pre-ejaculate - fluid that is released from the penis during arousal, long before ejaculation - sperm can contain;
• coitus interruptus does not protect against sexually transmitted diseases such as HIV / AIDS, genital herpes or gonorrhea Gonorrhea - self-ruled .

In addition, coitus interruptus decreases sexual pleasure because couples need to think about the need to be on time "pull." In addition, a woman may experience irritation or frustration due to the fact that the beloved wants to give her his seed.

However, coitus interruptus, and removing the penis from the vagina before ejaculation can be used as a method of contraception Contraceptive Methods: Ten myths about contraception in the mirror of facts   in special situations, such as in spontaneous sex, and recommended that couples who are not in principle opposed to the pregnancy, or can not use other contraceptive methods. In situations where contraceptives are not available, coitus interruptus is the only possible way to prevent pregnancy, but it can not serve as an alternative to modern means of contraception, such as condoms. Regular use of the method of interrupted sexual intercourse can lead to diseases of the sexual sphere, both women and men.

What is medication abortion

Medical or non-surgical abortion is performed using pharmacological agents, the action of which is based on the expulsion of the ovum from the uterus (miscarriage). To conduct medical termination of pregnancy using such drugs as: Mifegin, Penkrafton, Mifolian and others. The active ingredient in these medicines is mifepristone. Mifepristone blocks the action of gormona-- - progesterone Progesterone - norm and pathology Who is responsible for the preservation and development of pregnancy. In addition, Mifepristone causes contractions of the uterus by increasing its sensitivity to the muscle layer of prostaglandins. Due to a change in the lining of the uterus is rejected fetus from her walls, and enhanced uterine contractions push the ovum outside.

Contraindications to medical abortion

Any interruption of pregnancy is harmful to the body, and often irreparable. Medical abortion - it is a powerful hormonal effects on the reproductive and endocrine system of women. Therefore, before you decide on a pharmacological abortion, a woman must become familiar with its possible complications and consequences. Before abortion doctor conducts a thorough examination of the patient, appoints a pelvic ultrasound and laboratory tests. The survey often identifies contraindications to medical abortion. They can be either absolute (absolutely not) and relative (possible, but with caution).

Absolute contraindications

It is strictly forbidden pharmacological abortion in the following cases:

• Suspected ectopic pregnancy

Ectopic pregnancy - a dangerous condition that requires emergency surgery. Suspected ectopic pregnancy is an absolute contraindication to medical abortion, as in the case of the presence of mifepristone can lead to irreversible consequences and even death. Hormonal effects on the uterus and tubes causes them increased reduction, which may result in rupture of the fallopian tube and massive bleeding.

• Unconfirmed pregnancy

• Acute gynecological inflammatory diseases

Acute inflammation of the female genitalia as an absolute contraindication to medical abortion. After removal of the ovum from the uterus and its mucosa is an open wound surface, which is an excellent springboard for the colonization of pathogenic microbes.

• Heavy extragenital pathology

Diseases such as decompensated diabetes Diabetes - threatening and incurable disease , Kidney and liver failure, as well as adrenal insufficiency are absolute contraindications to medical abortion. This is primarily due to the severe hormonal disorders in the body that can aggravate mifepristone. Secondly, in these diseases is a delay in the body fluid, whereby the removal of toxic substances is hampered, which can lead to the development of inflammatory processes and even sepsis (blood infection).

• Bronchial asthma, bronchitis and other bronchopulmonary diseases in exacerbation.
• Pronounced allergic reactions.
• Blood diseases.

Violation of coagulation (hemophilia) and other diseases (anemia) are also considered absolute contraindications to medical abortion. Long-spotting after mifepristone may lead to the weighting of the patient's state and profuse bleeding.
