Its time to get serious. No, it hardly matters whether it is regarding your relationship, career or even your own self. But when it comes to 'sex' with your partner, you really need to get serious. This article will inform you about 'Contraception', its effectiveness and everything else that you wanted to be sure of. While making love to your partner, all you both think about is love towards each other, excitement, passion and sexual satisfaction. The least important thing which comes to your mind is 'Birth control'. A wise couple always makes plan for birth control in order to enjoy a healthy sexual life. To understand what exactly birth control measures are, first you need to get your facts right about birth control. In simple language, any action using a method or device to refrain from getting pregnant is called birth control. Using preventive measures once can ward off any chance of getting pregnant after sex. These measures avoid sperms to come in contact with the female egg. Widely these methods and controls are known as 'contraception', a simple effort that prevents the sperm to fertilize female egg. Traces of facts in history tell us, that humans became aware of birth control only when they understood that sex was connected to pregnancy. The age-old measure that humans used for eras was the 'Withdrawal Method', during which the male removed penis from vagina just before ejaculation. Though, this method came to be as a big failure often due to lack of understanding the situation. Soon after as per their own understanding humans avoided having sex with their partners during few days of the month to avoid any chances of pregnancy. Even this method was not a success as, no one ever succeeded to get a breakthrough to point out those 'Few Days'. But with science making developments, here are some 'birth control measures' or ways of 'contraception' that could help you to avoid pregnancies:PillsAlso known as Oral Contraceptive Pills or OCP, these are highly effective and popular amongst females. These pills are always taken after the sexual intercourse. According to science, a female egg or ovum remains within fallopian tube for nearly 72 hours during which if a sperm fertilizes it, the pregnancy begins immediately. But taking this pill within 72 hours of copulation or sexual intercourse blocks the procedure of fertilization of egg or even formation of embryo in females. A female must make sure to take an Oral Contraceptive Pill or OCP within 72 hours of Sexual Intercourse with her man, if they are thinking of family planning or avoiding pregnancy. CondomsIt's an external birth control measure used by men. It is a barrier worn in by a man over his penis to reduce the chances of pregnancy and any sexually transmitted diseases or STD's. This method physically blocks the sperms from entering vagina during sex. This measure is inexpensive and widely acclaimed as an effective Contraceptive measure. These are water-proof, durable and elastic. They are also available for females and are widely known as 'Female Condoms'. Cervical Cap or DiaphragmEarlier scientists focused more on the fact that it more important to effectively stop sperm cells from reaching the fallopian tubes. Hence for that they came up with a measure called Cervical Cap or Diaphragm. Popularly known as a ‘Womb veil'; a Cervical Cap acts as a barrier for contraception. A Cervical Cap or a Diaphragm is neatly fixed over the cervix by a credited medial practitioner. It is an absolute solution for Birth control without fail.Intra-uterine DevicesWidely called as IUDs, these devices are operationally placed inside a female vagina by a credited medical practitioner. This method prevents implantation of fertilized eggs to 'Uterine Wall'. Generally after their first child, couples often opt for this procedure for short-term and effective avoidance of pregnancy. A Doctor or medical practitioner places this device soon after child-birth inside the uterus of the mother, which is a very neat and non-painful procedure. SterilizationHighly effective way to avoid pregnancies is a permanent solution such as Sterilization. In this procedure, a doctor or medical practitioner effectively operates and performs, Vasectomy (in males), and Tubectomy (in females). 'Vasectomy', is a surgical procedure in which a man's 'Vasa-Deferentia', an organ through which sperm travels up to seminal stream, is tied down or sealed in a manner which prevents sperms from ejaculation. Tubectomy is a surgical procedure in females, where a medical practitioner operates on the fallopian tubes by either blocking, clamping or sealing it to avoid ova's reaching down to uterus for fertilizations.
