barrier methods: Physical, chemical, intra-uterine device, hormonal methods.

SECOND GENERATION:
These are also made of polyethylene but copper is added and it enhances the
contraceptive effect. Variety of copper devices are: Copper-7 and Copper-200,
Variants of T devices are TCU 220C and TCU 380A, Multiload Devices are
ML-CU 250 and ML-CU 375, Nova T device is TCU 380. All copper devices
are more effective and less chances of side effects and can be fitted easily.
THIRD GENERATION IUD’s:
These contains hormones which is released
slowly in the uterus. The hormone effects the
lining of the uterus and cervical mucus. It may
affect the sperm.
ORAL PILLS
Combined Pills – the pill is composed of two hormones synthetic
estrogen and progesterone in very small doses. Its action is to
inhibit ovulation of ovum by blocking the secretion of
gonadotropin from pituitary gland.
PROGESTERONE ONLY PILL
This pill is also known as mini pill. It contains on progesterone and
it thickens the cervical mucus which prevents the entry of sperms
into the uterine cavity. Mini pills are taken throughout the
menstrual cycle and these are not used widely because of its high
failure rate.
LONG-ACTING CONTRACEPTIVES
These are more suitable for women who do not want to get pregnant again for
few years.
• CONTRACEPTIVE INJECTIONS
• CONTRACEPTIVE IMPLANTS
It is a small device placed under the skin that contains progesterone hormone and
works in a similar way to injection that inhibits ovulation it lasts for 3 years.
• CONTRACEPIVE PATCHES
A transdermal patch applied to the skin that releases synthetic estrogen and
progestogen hormones to prevent pregnancy. They have been shown to be as
effective as the combined oral contraceptive pill with perfect use, and the patch
may be more effective in typical use.
PERMANENT OR SURGICAL FAMILY PLANNING
STERILIZATION – it is the most effective method its failure rate is 1/2000 so in this there is permanent termination.
TUBECTOMY
• It is one of the operative procedure where
resection of a both fallopian tube is done to
achieve permanent sterilization.
VASECTOMY
• Small incision made on each side of scrotum vas
deferens is then cut and tied, cauterized or
plugged.
• Blocking the passage of spermatozoa.
• Does not interfere with production of sperms but
does not pass beyond vas deferens.
