What problems can¬Our readers told the nickname when using contraceptives, and three doctors commented on their stories and shared information that you would not find in the usual instructions for use.

Oral contraceptives

Once I forgot to drink a contraceptive tablet, but I decided not to panic and calmly drink them further. As a result, it turned out that I am pregnant. How dangerous for the child is that I continued to drink hormones during pregnancy?
Irina Suzdal, 26

If you took hormonal contraceptives during the first month of pregnancy, then the weather will not do.

First, the fertilized egg is not immediately attached to the wall of the uterus, and the first two weeks of the tablet on it simply cannot affect. Secondly, the formation of the genital organs of the fetus, sensitive to the effects of hormones, begins only at the eighth week of pregnancy. Therefore, most likely, the contraceptives will not harm the child.

It is believed that after the abandonment of contraceptive pills, the probability of twins is increased. Is it true? Alexandra Sedova, 25

Hormonal contraceptives for a long time suppress the activity of ovaries. And after their cancellation in women with high fertility sometimes the so-called rebuint effect occurs when the ovaries, catching the missed, allocate two eggs at once. So you can completely get twins.

I do not decide to have sex in those seven days when I take a break in the taking tablets and occur. Can I get pregnant during this period? Elena Surikova, 24

Despite the fact that you misses seven days, hormones still act on the body, and the egg does not leave the ovary. So pregnancy does not threaten you. But having sex during menstruation without a condom still not recommended – It is not hygienic: cervical cervical, you can make an infection and thus earn endometrite.

National

Once I found that the National, whom I started using, disappeared from me somewhere. In the instruction it is written that it cannot fall. So I – Bermuda Triangle?
Svetlana Kat, 24

It is possible that you just can't get a ring, because it penetrated deep inside. But keep in mind that the owner may well fall independently – Basically, you have given birth to women when omitting the walls of the vagina.

With bombing such a nuisance also happens – For example, if the ring was installed incorrectly and did not fall as it should be on the cervix or as a result of rapid sessions, sex in some original poses.

In any case, the contraceptive effect of Novaring is preserved no more than three hours after its falling, then you risk getting pregnant.

Postinar

It so happened that I had to take postinor twice for a month. I all say that it is impossible to do this under any circumstances, and threaten infertility and diseases. What is specifically fraught with an excessive passion for postinor?
Marina Shcherbakova, 21

These tablets contain a percussion dose of the Gestagen hormone, which slows down ovulation. Each reception of the drug – strong hormonal stress that knocks off cycle.

Postinor can be drinking exclusively young girls aged 18 to 22 years old with regular menstrual CEC¬scrap and no more than four times a month. That is why it was previously called drug «for brides soldiers and sailors»: The servicemen were released home for the weekend just four times a month.

Mature women and with violations of the Cycle Postinor should not be taken: it increases blood coagulation, and when abuse can lead to dysfunction of ovaries.

Condoms

I do not know what's going on, but condoms are very often torn. And even the highest quality brands. Maybe the Providence itself wants us to support demographics in the country?
Karina Strainy, 28 <

Condoms can rob in four reasons. First – They were misunderstood, leaving too much air in the tip. Second – Inappropriate size. This is quite solved, now in pharmacies you can pick up condoms of any size. Third – Long sexual intercourse.

And last: you lack natural lubrication, that is, you are not excited enough. In this case, either pay more time to pre-caress, or use a lubricant.

Women's condoms

I used to use caps, and now heard that there are female condoms exist. It seems to me that it is much more convenient. Tell me how they look like different from men and where to take them.
Ksenia Grigoryuk, 31

Caps, diaphragms and female condoms act equally: cover the cervix, not allowing spermatozoa inges. Female condom – This is a pouch of a polyurethane with a length of 17 cm with two elastic rings of different diameters at the ends. Like a cap, it is inserted inside before sexual act.

You can buy a female condom in sex shop. And how to use it, there must be a doctor: the effectiveness of such funds and so low enough, and the wrong installation will reduce the result to zero.

Candles and jelly

Once I decided to try to prevent jelly. As a result, everything ended terrible: the candle was dissolved and turned into a whole bunch of foam, we both scared and slightly stopped. I had to go home together, although the instruction prohibits this. What did I do wrong?
Alla Semenyuk, 32

Most likely, you have overdoing with the amount of jelly – In this case, it is really worth waiting for excess foam. But it was impossible to wash in any case: spermicidal candles and jelly give only 80% of efficiency, and if you wash the foam, then.

This method of protection is recommended rather to elderly women, and not young girls with high fertility. If your partner's spermatozoids are survivors, then the sea of ​​foam does not hurt them.

Patch

My contraceptive plaster is partially dug away when I move. It somehow affects the number of hormones that enter blood? And why not recommend to glue the plaster on the same place?
Sophia Petrov, 26

In the fact that the corner dug up, there is nothing terrible. The main thing is that the main part of the plaster remains on the spot. It is necessary to avoid the same place because under the epithelium plaster is practically not updated, and through the layer of old cells hormones are worse.

And do not stick the scars and scars – The connecting fabric will not miss the hormones, and the plaster will not give any effect.
