Something SHY


We know how copulation can result in pregnancy. However, in modern day society, many people are not only seeking for their pursuits and also the increasing cost of child raising in developing countries. As a result, birth control methods are introduced.There are 2 types of birth control methods, the temporary birth control and the permanent birth control. For temporary birth control, once its removed, a couple can get pregnant again. However, permanent birth control is irreversible. Such examples are vasectomy and tubal ligation. Vasectomy is the cutting and tying up of the sperm ducts to prevent sperms being ejaculated from the epididymis. Tubal ligation is the cutting and tying up of the fallopian tubes. In this way, no ovum can reach the uterus for implantation and no sperm can reach the ovum. The temporary methods includes rhythm, condom, withdrawal, Pill, diaphragm, IUD. Just to name a few. Being the most common, the condom. It is latex fitted over the penis of the man to hold the sperms after ejaculation. The diaphragm also acts in the same way, but being fitted on the cervix by a doctor. The IUD, being much rarer is "The intrauterine device (IUD) is a form of birth control; it is an object, placed in the uterus, to prevent pregnancy.[1] Among modern IUDs, the two types available are copper-containing devices, and a hormone-containing device that releases a progestogen."
