CONTRACEPTION
We use our knowledge of
reproductive physiology to
promote or avoid pregnancy
Contraception
is the voluntary prevention of
pregnancy
Today, couples choosing
contraception must be informed
about prevention
of unintended pregnancy, as well as
protection against sexually
transmitted infections (STIs).
HISTORY
• 1850 B.C. Egyptians used crocodile dung
mixed with honey as vaginal pessary
• China - quicksilver (mercury)
was heated in oil and
swallowed by women
• Persia - sponges soaked
in quinine, iodine, carbolic acid
(phenol) and alcohol were
inserted in vagina before
intercourse
HISTORY
• Arabs used pebbles, glass beads,
buttons to put into uterus (as IUD)
• 6th century Greeks scooped out the
seeds from half a pomegranate and
used the skin of the fruit as a cervical
cap
HISTORY
• Mid 1600’s - the Era of Condom used sheep
intestine
• Soranus suggested that Greek women jump
backward seven times after intercourse.
• European women used bees-wax to cap the
cervix
• Charles Goodyear developed the first rubber
condom in the 19th century
HISTORY
• 1870’s- vulcanized rubber was produced;
rubber was washed and reused until it had
cracks or tears
• Margaret Sanger, a socialist and feminist from
New York City, created the term ‘birth control’.
• In 1950, Dr Gregory Pincus was asked to
develop the ideal contraceptive.
• He derived the steroid compounds from the
roots of the wild Mexican yam.
History of contraceptives
An oral birth control pill was
tested on 6,000 women
from Puerto Rico and Haiti.
– In 1960, the first oral
contraceptive (Enovid-10)
was launched in the US
market.
– The ‘Pill’ heralded a
revolution in birth control.
According to the Alan Guttmacher
Institute
• 64% of the more than 60 million women aged 15–
44 in the United States practice contraception.
• 31% of reproductive-age women do not need a
method because:
– they are pregnant, postpartum, or trying to become
pregnant; have never had intercourse; or are not
sexually active.
• Thus, only 5–7% of women aged 15–44 in need
of contraception are not using a method.
The 3 million women who use no
contraceptive method account for
almost:
• Half of unintended pregnancies (47%),
whereas the 39 million contraceptive
users account for 53%
• The majority of unintended pregnancies
among contraceptive users result from
inconsistent or incorrect use.
Contraception
• Three general strategies:
– Prevent ovulation;
– Prevent fertilization;
• Keep sperm & oocyte away from each other.
– Prevent implantation.

A multidisciplinary approach may assist
a woman in choosing and correctly
using an appropriate contraceptive
method
• Nurses, nurse-midwives, nurse practitioners,
other advanced practice nurses, physicians
• have the knowledge and expertise to assist a
woman in making decisions about
contraception that will satisfy the woman's
personal, social, cultural, and interpersonal
needs
Using contraception depends of:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
frequency of coitus
number of sexual partners
level of contraceptive involvement,
her or her partner's objections to any methods
the woman's level of comfort and willingness to touch her
genitals and cervical mucus
religious and cultural factors
an individual's reproductive life plan
(contraception/sterilization)
A history (menstrual, contraceptive, obstetric),
physical examination (including pelvic examination),
laboratory tests

Expected Outcomes of Care
• Verbalize understanding about contraceptive
methods.
• Verbalize understanding of all information necessary
to give informed consent
• State comfort and satisfaction with the chosen
method.
• Use the contraceptive method correctly and
consistently.
• Experience no adverse sequelae as a result of the
chosen method of contraception.
• Prevent unplanned pregnancy or plan a pregnancy.
• The ideal contraceptive should be safe, easily
available, economical, acceptable, simple to
use, and promptly reversible.
• Although no method may ever achieve all
these objectives, impressive progress has
been made.
Plan of Care and Interventions
• fundamental to initiating and maintaining any form
of contraception.
• The nurse counters myths with facts, clarifies
misinformation, and fills in gaps of knowledge
• Contraceptive failure depends on both the properties
of the method and the characteristics of the user
• Safety of a method depends on the patient's medical
history, tobacco use, and age. (Barrier methods offer
some protection from STIs, and oral contraceptives
may lower the incidence of ovarian and endometrial
cancer, but increase the risk of thromboembolic
problems)

• Barrier Methods
• Hormonal Methods
• Intrauterine Device
• Emergency Contraception
• Natural family planning methods (NFPM)
provides contraception by using methods that
rely on avoidance of intercourse during fertile
periods
• And Fertility Awareness Methods combine the
charting signs and symptoms of the menstrual
cycle with the use of abstinence or other
contraceptive methods during fertile periods
Natural family planning methods
Fertility determine techniques include
Calendar metod
Basal body temperature (BBT)
Cervical mucus Ovulation-detection method
Postovulation method
Symptothermal method (cervical mucus+BBT)
Predictor test for ovulation
Natural family planning methods
NFPM main principles
• The ovum can be fertilized no later than 16-24 hours after
ovulation
• Motile sperm have been recovered from the uterus and the
oviducts as long as 7 days after coitus.
• However, their ability to fertilize the ovum probably lasts no
longer than 24 to 48 hours.
• Pregnancy is unlikely to occur if a couple abstains from
intercourse for 4 days before and for 3 or 4 days after
ovulation (fertile period).
• Work only in woman with regular menstrual periods
• Depends of length pf menstrual period
• The typical failure rate is 25% during the first year of use
Natural family planning methods
The fertile period can be anticipated by
the following:
• Calculating the time at which ovulation is likely to
occur based on lengths of previous menstrual cycle
• Recording the increase in basal body temperature, a
result of thermogenic effect of progesterone
• Recognizing the changes in cervical mucus at different
phases of menstrual cycle
• Using combination of several method
• Using predictor test for ovulation
Natural family planning methods
Calendar (rhythm) method
• is based on the number of days in each cycle
counting from the first day of menses
• The beginning of the fertile period is estimated by
subtracting 18 days from the length of the shortest
cycle.
• The end of the fertile period is determined by
subtracting 11 days from the length of the longest
cycle.
• shortest cycle is 21 days and longest is 35 days,
• 21 - 18 = 3 , 35 - 11 =24
• Fertile period from 3 to 24 days
Natural family planning methods
Calendar (rhythm) method
• Effectiveness.
– Pregnancy rate of 9–25 per 100 women in first year of
use.
• Advantages.
– No physical side effects, economical, immediate return
to fertility on cessation of use, no method-related
health risks.
• Disadvantages.
– High failure rate, no protection against STDs, inhibits
spontaneity, requires regular menstrual cycles.
Natural family planning methods
Basal Body Temperature Method (BBT)
• is the lowest body temperature of a healthy person that is
taken immediately after waking and before getting out of bed.
• usually varies from 36.2° to 36.3° C during menses and for
about 5 to 7 days afterward
• About the time of ovulation a slight drop in temperature
(approximately 0.05° C) may be seen; after ovulation, in
concert with the increasing progesterone levels of the early
luteal phase of the cycle, the BBT rises slightly (approximately
0.2° to 0.4° C)
• The temperature remains on an elevated plateau until 2 to 4
days before menstruation.

Natural family planning methods
Cervical mucus Ovulation-Detection
Method
• requires that the woman recognize and
interpret the cyclic changes in the amount and
consistency of cervical mucus that
characterize her own unique pattern of
changes
• cervical mucus should be free from semen,
contraceptive gels or foams, and blood or
discharge from vaginal infections, douches
and vaginal deodorants, medications such as
antihistamines for at least one full cycle

Method
Natural family planning methods
Symptothermal method
(BBT+cervical mucos)
• The woman is taught to palpate the cervix to assess
for changes indicating ovulation; that is, the os
dilates slightly, the cervix softens and rises in the
vagina, and cervical mucus is copious and slippery
• The woman notes days on which coitus, changes in
routine, illness, and so on have occurred
• Calendar calculations and cervical mucus changes are
used to estimate the onset of the fertile period;
changes in cervical mucus or the BBT are used to
estimate its end
Natural family planning methods
Predictor test for ovulation
• detects the sudden surge of luteinizing
hormone (LH) that occurs approximately 12 to
24 hours before ovulation. Unlike BBT, the test
is not affected by illness, emotional upset, or
physical activity
Natural family planning methods
Coitus interruptus
• male partner withdrawing the penis from the
woman's vagina before he ejaculates.
• It is a good choice for couples who do not
have another contraceptive available
• Effectiveness depends on the man's ability to
withdraw his penis before ejaculation
• The failure rate is 19%
• Does not protect against STIs or human
immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection
Methods of Contraception
• Natural family planning methods And Fertility
Awareness Methods
• Barrier Methods
 Chemical
 Mechanical
male (condom)
female (condom, cervical diaphragm,
cervical cap)
• Hormonal Methods
• Intrauterine Device
• Emergency Contraception
Barrier Methods
• Provide barrier for sperm
• AND
• Mechanical condoms provide a mechanical
barrier to STIs
• Chemical barriers slightly reduce the risk of
gonorrhea and chlamydia but may increase
the transmission of HIV
Barrier Methods
• Exposure to multiple partners is defined as
having had more than one partner in the past
year or having had a partner who had other
partners around the same time.
Barrier Methods
Spermicides
• Nonoxynol-9 is a surfactant that destroy the sperm sell
membrane,
• Mode of action
• Provide a physical and chemical barrier that prevent viable
sperm from entering the cervix
• frequent using increase the transmission of HIV,
• can cause genital lesion
• aerosol foams, foaming tablets, suppositories, creams, films,
gels, and sponges
• Should be inserted no longer than 1 hour before intercose
• Effectiveness depends on consistent and accurate use
• Typical failure rate in the first year of use is 29%
Barrier Methods
Spermicides
• Advantages
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Easy to apply
Safe
Low cost
Available without a prescription or previous medical examination
Aids in lumbricate of the vagina
Alternative to lacting woman and premenopausal, foget oral contraceptive
• Disadvantages
Maximall effectiveness lasts no longer 1 hour
Repeated intercourse need additional spermicides
Alergic reaction and irritation of vaginal and penile tissue
Decrease sensation
Increase STI
Barrier Methods
Spermicides
Barrier Methods
male condom
• prevent sperm from entering the cervix
• FAILURE RATE
• Typical users, 14%
• Correct and consistent users, 3%
• ADVANTAGES
• Safe
• No side effects Readily available
• Premalignant changes in cervix can be prevented or ameliorated in women
whose partners use condoms Method of male nonsurgical contraception
• DISADVANTAGES
• Must interrupt lovemaking to apply sheath. Sensation may be altered.
• If used improperly, spillage of sperm can result in pregnancy. Occasionally,
condoms may tear during intercourse.
• STI PROTECTION
• If a condom is used throughout the act of intercourse and there is no
unprotected contact with female genitals, a latex rubber condom, which is
impermeable to viruses, can act as a protective measure against STIs. The
addition of nonoxynol-9 increases protection against transmission of STIs.
Barrier Methods
female condom
• is made of polyure-thane and has flexible rings
at both ends
• The closed end of the pouch is inserted into the
vagina and is anchored around the cervix, and
the open ring covers the labia.
• The female condom can be inserted up to 8
hours before intercourse and is intended for
one-time use.
• Typical failure rate is 21% in the first year of use
Barrier Methods
diaphragm
• is a shallow, dome-shaped rubber device with a
flexible wire rim that covers the cervix
• The diaphragm is a mechanical barrier preventing the
meeting of the sperm with the ovum.
• The diaphragm holds the spermicide in place against
the cervix for the 6 hours it takes to destroy the
sperm.
• Typical failure rate of the diaphragm alone is 20% in
the first year of use.
• Effectiveness of the diaphragm can be increased
when combined with a spermicide
Barrier Methods
diaphragm
•
•
•
•
•
• Disadvantages
reluctance to insert and remove the diaphragm. A cold diaphragm
a cold gel temporarily reduce vaginal response to sexual stimulation if
insertion of the diaphragm occurs immediately before intercourse.
• Side effects
irritation of tissues related to contact with spermicides and urethritis and
recurrent cystitis caused by upward pressure of the diaphragm rim against
the urethra
• Contraindication
woman with relaxation of her pelvic support (uterine prolapse) or a large
cystocele.
Women who have a latex allergy should not use diaphragms made of
latex.
Barrier Methods
cervical cap
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
soft, natural rubber dome with a firm but pliable rim. It fits snugly around the base
of the cervix close to the junction of the cervix and vaginal fornices.
It is recommended that the cap remain in place no less than 8 hours and not more
than 48 hours at a time.
It is left in place at least 6 hours after the last act of intercourse.
The seal provides a physical barrier to sperm: spermicide inside the cap adds a
chemical barrier.
The extended period of wear may be an added convenience for women.
• Contindication
abnormal Papanicolaou (Pap) test results,
those who cannot be fitted properly with the existing cap sizes,
those who find the insertion and removal of the device too difficult,
those with a history of Toxic Shock syndrome,
those with vaginal or cervical infections,
those who experience allergic responses to the latex cap or spermicide.
Barrier Methods
Sponges
• is a small, round, polyurethane sponge that contains
nonoxynol-9 spermicide. It is designed to fit over the cervix
(one size fits all). The side that is placed next to the cervix is
concave for better fit. The opposite side has a woven
polyester loop to be used for removal of the sponge.
• The sponge must be moistened with water before it is
inserted. It provides protection for up to 24 hours and for
repeated instances of sexual intercourse. The sponges
hould be left in place for at least 6 hours after the last act of
intercourse. Wearing longer than 24 to 30 hours may put the
woman at risk for TSS

Hormonal Methods
Combined oral contraceptives (COCs)
• Consist of synthetic estrogen and progestin preparations
• suppresses the action of the hypothalamus and anterior
pituitary, leading to inappropriate secretion of folliclestimulating hormone (FSH) and LH; ovulation is inhibited
because ovarian follicles do not mature.
• maturation of the endometrium is altered, making it a
less favorable site for implantation should ovulation and
fertilization occur;
• the cervical mucus remains thick as a result of the effect
of the progestin and reduces the chance for sperm
penetration
• Decrease tubal motility

80% reduction)
Hormonal Methods
Combined oral contraceptives (COCs)
• Examination include:
• medical and family history, weight, blood
pressure, general physical and pelvic
examination, and screening cervical cytologic
