There are many effective products and techniques for birth control. The most effective and popular is the contraceptive pill. Also available are condoms, the coil and the cap.
Mirena is a birth control company that offers contraceptive devices alternative to the typical condom. One example is their intrauterine birth control; easy to use, convenient, and 99% effective.
The only 100% effective means is abstinence- not to have sex. Surgical sterilization, such as removal of the uterus is also highly effective. All common means of birth control such as condoms, birth control pills, IUDs, withdrawal, rhythm method CAN fail in some percentage of cases.
For me it was but there is some complications associated with it...
Although birth control is rather effective, it's not 100% effective. Spotting could represent pregnancy or even miscarriage. Some woman believe it or not do get pregnant while on a birth control regimen.
Birth control suppositories are one of the least effective methods to begin with. Withdrawal is more effective than spermicide used alone. Consider getting some condoms and throwing out the expired suppositories.
There are a few different behavioral methods of birth control. Three examples are coitus interruptus, the rhythm method or "fertility awareness," and abstinence. Coitus interruptus has a variable reliability, the rhythm method is better, but abstinence, where possible, is 100% effective. Some experts do not consider abstinence birth control, and some do not consider coitus interruptus birth control.
The main risk of Yaz birth control is that they are not 100% effective. They have also been known to give women nausea, headaches and high blood pressure.
The only birth control that is 100% effective is abstinence. Effectiveness of birth control really depends on the person. Some options may be pills, patches, shots, rings, condoms and surgery. The best advice is to visit your doctor and have the doctor help you decide.
Birth control is an effective yet not 100% foolproof contraceptive method. While effective, it does have some side effects including nausea, breakthrough bleeding, breast tenderness, decreased libido and possibly mood swings.
Check with your doctor as to the effectiveness of your birth control when used in conjunction with other medications. Reduced effectiveness may be seen in some cases.
Like all medication, when it expires, it becomes less effective (and increases in its ineffectiveness as the time goes on). It's not easy to give a percentage as to how effective compared to non-expired pills, but if using expired birth control is your only option, I would use it with a condom or some other non-hormonal birth control to make sure you don't get pregnant. Otherwise, the likelihood of pregnancy will increase.
Some studies have shown Reglan to be effective as early as 3-4 days after beginning of treatment. Others have shown that it is not any more effective than a placebo and counseling. Also, I see that this question is in the birth control pill category. Reglan is an anti-emetic and has nothing to do with birth control, just FYI.
