Dangers of emergency contraception

In preparations the same hormones are applied to emergency contraception, as in standard пероральных contraceptives practically. And it is known, what even низкодозированные пероральные contraceptives have weight of contra-indications and undesirable by-effects – and it is necessary to think and consult some times with the doctor before to apply these means. At emergency contraception of concentration разово hormones entered into an organism on some usages above – but their some women apply without any consultation of the doctor and not reflecting at all about danger. And after all actually "emergency contraception" means concept, that for the majority of women this method and remains reserve and is never used, or used one-two time for all life. And it is correct, as preparations of emergency contraception cause variety of the extremely undesirable consequences.

First of all it, certainly, infringements in hormonal sphere. For example, infringement менструального a cycle which can be restored subsequently half a year-year, and at many and is not restored definitively – even at special treatment further. Besides, can develop мастопатия, гирсутизм (excessive growth of hair on a body), поликистоз яичников and others connected with infringements of hormonal regulation of disease.

As the vagina microflora very strongly depends on a background of sexual hormones complications in the form of the milkwoman or nonspecific inflammatory process of genitals are quite often shown.

Negatively and emergency contraception affects a condition of digestive system, and the liver first of all suffers. And possibility of many undesirable by-effects is not underlined in the instruction to such preparations.

Similar situation and with contra-indications to application of emergency contraception. Officially it only age till 16 years and individual sensitivity to components (on which at desire it is possible to write off then hardly probable not all negative phenomena). Meanwhile, means of emergency contraception have a number of obvious specific contra-indications. First of all it is necessary to specify варикозное expansion of veins of a small basin – which it is diagnosed usually only at special ultrasonic inspection and about which patients often learn just after application of emergency contraception, because of sharp deterioration of a condition. Also these preparations are counter-indicative and at the majority of other diseases of vascular system and infringements of coagulability of blood.

If emergency contraception is casually applied at early stages of pregnancy hormonal splash caused by a preparation with very high probability "will touch" the child. Are possible both serious defects of development in the child, and an abortion – and with risk of the subsequent infringements in sexual system, up to barreness. The extra-uterine pregnancy, a traditional which method of treatment is possible also (by removal маточной pipes) in most cases also leads to barreness. There are also more progressive approaches to treatment of extra-uterine pregnancy – but it is possible to count on them, only if doctors successfully and diagnosed in time extra-uterine pregnancy, and is where to perform corresponding operation.

All these dangers connected with pregnancy are especially actual, if emergency contraception is applied more than in 72 hours after not protected sexual intercourse. However even at reception in time it is impossible to exclude similar development of a situation completely.

What to do, to avoid all these dangers? The unique exit – to think in advance of the health and always to be protected. Emergency contraception should be applied only as a last resort. And the casual not protected sex – completely not extreme case, and banal nonsense. To speak about emergency contraception it is possible, for example, in such really serious situations, as rape.

Even at condom rupture it is necessary to think seriously, that it is better – some risk of not planned pregnancy, or danger to undermine the health up to possible barreness. As in some cases professionally and in time the made abortion can even be more safe for health, rather than emergency contraception.
