Unexpected pregnancy: What to know

The article was consulted professionally by Specialist I Truong Nghia Binh – Obstetrician and Gynecologist – Share99 Da Nang International Health Hub. Doctors have more than 13 years of experience in the field of obstetrics and gynecology.

Most unfulanced pregnancies are caused by not using contraception or misuse. To prevent an unexpected pregnancy, couples need to clearly define their reproduction plan.

1. Why is there an unexpected pregnancy?

The only form of birth control that is 100% effective is non-sexual contact. Condoms, contraceptive pills or contraceptive rings and other contraceptive methods give a contraceptive effect of up to 90%. Sterilization in females or vasectitis in men, the rate of unexpected pregnancy occurs below 1%.

If you use the wrong contraceptive ,your chances of getting pregnant will increase, such as tearing a condom. In that case, you can use the contraceptive pill immediately to prevent pregnancy up to 5 days after sex. But if you don't find out the condom has a problem or you don't take the contraceptive pill daily then you can get pregnant.

The biggest reason for uns planned pregnancy is not ineffective contraception but from not using any contraceptives. Some sisters do not regularly use contraception, they themselves do not like to take it or maybe even their sexuality does not want them to use it.

Many couples are unsure whether they themselves want to have children but there are no measures to proactively contraceptive. And finally, they get pregnant in embarrassment, hesitant. Therefore, if you are still menstruating but irregular, you do not want to get pregnant unsir wishing, then contraception should be used.

When you go through menopause (that is, you no longer have menstruation from about 1 year ago) then you can have sex without taking contraceptives and you will not have a chance to get pregnant as well. However, using contraception, helps you protect yourself from sexually transmitted diseases.

2. Implementing family planning, reducing abortion rates

A total of 1,184,758 legal abortions were reported to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in 1997 (the most recent year for which statistics are available) – a 3% decrease from the previous year, according to a report released the previous year by the CDC. 23% of abortions are performed in women 19 years of age or younger; 32% for women between the ages of 20 and 24; and the majority, 48%, in women over the age of 25. In addition, the total number of abortions performed in women of all ages in 1997 was the lowest since 1978, and the rate (abortions per 1,000 women giving birth) and the rate (the number of abortions per 1,000 live births) was the lowest since 1975.

According to experts, the declining rate of abortion is due to the implementation of family planning. Family planning includes abstinence from sex, contraception and other methods. The population is getting older.

Another reason for the decline in abortion rates is the fact that young people have more access to birth control measures. In addition to the use of condoms, contraceptive pills, women can opt for injections for contraception. An injection will be effective within 3 months, which is more convenient than taking the contraceptive pill daily.

In addition, couples can use emergency contraception, take the contraceptive pill within 72 hours after uns protected sex or place the contraceptive ring after sex. Emergency contraceptives are used only when other contraceptives fail or do not plan to contraception.

In some cases, having sex only once a week and external esacing, they assume that the chances of pregnancy are very low. However, there is still a certain percentage of pregnancies and at this time, they themselves have no choice but to have an abortion.

3. The link between AIDS and unsweemed pregnancy

By increasing awareness of the spread of AIDS and sexually transmitted diseases, the percentage of condom users is increasing.

Abortion rates now tend to decrease, but it is still necessary to raise public awareness in the planning of reproduction because most abortions are the result of unsymed pregnancies.
