There are many ways to protect against unwanted pregnancy, and there are already many myths about each method that mislead inexperienced lovers. Below are some of the most common pregnancy contraception myths.
Condoms have no expiration date. This is not at all the case, it is not recommended to store condoms for more than 3-4 months.
You cannot get pregnant if a lady is making love while standing. Nonsense - if the sperm have already entered the vagina, then they don't care which direction to move further.
Pregnancy can occur with oral sex. Some young girls think that way, although it's funny. You can be calm - there is no egg in the stomach and alimentary tract, such a pregnancy is simply impossible!
Interrupted intercourse. Many couples think that it is enough to have time to pull out the penis before the onset of ejaculation, but in the end many become parents against their will. It's simple - sperm is released from the penis even during intercourse. Sometimes there is one drop for a pregnancy test to show two strips.
A woman who is breastfeeding cannot get pregnant. These are folk tales. Feeding protects against pregnancy only when it inhibits ovulation. Ovulation will occur a couple of weeks after giving birth, therefore, the possibility of re-conception will appear. It should be noted that conception after childbirth is highly undesirable from a medical point of view. If the female body does not rest between births for two years, then the next child may be born weak.
Urine kills sperm. People say that after intercourse, a lady just needs to go to the toilet and pee. But these are just another grandmother's tales. Urine has no special properties that are detrimental to sperm.
Tampon as a remedy for unwanted pregnancy. Yes, a tampon prevents the penis from entering completely into the vagina, but it does not interfere with sperm. So you shouldn't protect yourself in such a dubious way. In addition, the member can drive the tampon so deep that it will be very difficult to get it.
A week and a week after menstruation, the safe period is that you cannot get pregnant. Unfortunately, this period is not always safe, on any day of the cycle you can conceive a child, even during the critical days themselves.
