Can I still use contraception after six days of sexual intercourse
Emergency contraception refers to a contraceptive method used to prevent pregnancy during a period of unprotected sex or after contraceptive failure, with medication being the most commonly used method. Within 72 to 120 hours after sexual activity, the earlier the medication is taken, the better the effect. Failure rates are often higher after 72 hours. If you don't want a baby, take contraceptive measures in advance or take emergency contraception pills within a certain period of time after sexual intercourse to conceive.
What are the methods of contraception
1. Safe period contraception is a method of contraception that involves stopping sexual activity during ovulation. The key to using safe period contraception is to determine a woman's ovulation date. The ovulation date for women is generally around 14 days before the next menstrual period. Sexual intercourse during the first five and last four days of ovulation is easy to conceive, so it is also known as the critical period.
2. Condoms, also known as condoms, have two aspects of safety. On the one hand, compared with safe period contraception, they have a higher success rate in contraception. If used correctly, their contraceptive rate can reach over 95%. However, condoms are a commonly used method among the general public.
If you are not prepared to have children, you should take contraceptive measures. After all, a baby is also a small life, and he needs love and care. Those who are irresponsible should not have him. He will also be sad, and abortion can cause great harm to his body. So it is recommended that everyone take good care of contraception before being mentally prepared and not joke about their own bodies.
