Less application caused by misunderstanding of the idea of child-bearing age female oral contraceptive in China

According to statistics, about 100 million women using oral contraceptives for contraception worldwide, in Europe and other developed countries, oral contraceptive use rate has been as high as 30%~40%, but in China, with a very low rate of contraceptive use oral contraceptives, only 2.3% of child-bearing age women using oral contraceptives.

Peking University first hospital of Gynecology and obstetrics expert Professor Zheng shurong in contraception and women\'s health forum held recently by the Ou Jianong also pointed out that, although oral contraceptives are of the highest success rate in current birth control methods, but misunderstanding of the concept is still restricted the application of such methods in child-bearing age women population in China.

Professor Cheng, recent statistics show that flow of about 4~6 million induced abortions each year in the world (interview with thematic consultation), the flow rate of around 37~55/1000 women of childbearing age, global 26% to abortion of pregnancy outcomes, which leads to 6~10 million women die from unsafe abortions.

Compared to passenger levels all over the world, about 100 million women in 20~29sui, 27.3% of these women do flow, flow rate is about two-one thousandths women of childbearing age. Higher than the world average. This mistaken ideas on oral contraceptive in China there are many relevant.

For too long, many people think that oral contraceptives cause weight gain, acne, or hairy, reducing female fertility, and even with is teratogenic and other issues.

In fact, of the highest success rate of oral contraceptives in addition to birth control contraceptive methods, and do not cause these problems, stop just have normal menstrual considered after pregnancy. Also reduce ovarian cancer, endometrial cancer, and other non-contraceptive benefits.

In addition, contraceptives in the 40 years of development trend also shows that estrogen dose reduction (current contraceptive estrogen content in products have been dropped 150 micrograms of from 50 to 20 micrograms, as Mercilon Mei Xin Le), progesterone increases will be more effective to achieve the activity of contraception and protection of health.
