Contraception, In human physiology, birth control through the deliberate prevention of conception or impregnation. The term birth control represents the various methods and techniques that prevent fertilization or interrupt pregnancy at various stages. Birth control, also known as contraception and fertility control, refers to methods or devices used to prevent pregnancy. Examples of contraception are barrier methods like condoms and diaphragm, hormonal contraception like oral contraception, and injectable contraception.
Oral Contraceptive
"Birth control pills or oral contraceptives use synthetic hormones to prevent pregnancy. There are two types: combined and progesterone only. Combined pills contain synthetic forms of estrogen and progesterone. Oral contraceptives are commonly used to treat menstrual problems and decrease acne. Oral contraceptives are designed to prevent pregnancy in one of three ways:
1. Prevent ovulation each month.
2. The cervix produces less and thicker mucus so that sperm cannot easily enter the uterus.
3. The lining of the uterus becomes thinner, making it more difficult for a fertilized egg to attach to the uterus should ovulation occur and fertilization take place. Ethical Consideration."
