Abstract:

Background: Emergency contraception (EC) refers to contraceptive methods for the prevention of pregnancy resulting from unprotected sexual intercourse. They are very effective and can prevent up to 95% of unintended pregnancies if used within five days of sexual intercourse. To lessen complications from an unwanted pregnancy, emergency contraceptives can be an advantage. Africa requires a comprehensive contraceptive program to avert unwanted pregnancies and maternal mortality related to the termination of pregnancy.

Abstract:

Emergency contraceptives play a major role in preventing unwanted pregnancy. The use of emergency contraceptives is characterized by myths and lack of knowledge by both health professionals and users. The main objective of this paper is to summarize the clinical pharmacology of hormonal methods of emergency contraception. A literature review was done to describe in detail the mechanism of action, efficacy, pharmacokinetics, safety profile, and drug interactions of hormonal emergency contraceptive pills.

Abstract:

ABSTRACT Hormonal emergency contraceptive drugs designed to prevent undesired pregnancy are available over the counter. In spite of availability of various contraceptive techniques, couple protection rate in our country is still inadequate. A large number of couples prefer to use emergency contraceptive pill instead of regular contraceptives. Though hormonal emergency contraceptives pills are highly effective and safe with fewer side effects, their failure rate is high when used in periovulatory period with increased chances of ectopic pregnancy.

Emergency hormonal contraceptives play an important role in preventing unplanned pregnancies in South Africa. In this review, we discuss the levonorgestrel emergency contraceptive, the combined estrogen and progestin regimen (also known as the Yuzpe method) and the use of Ulipristal acetate. The levonorgestrel and the combined estrogen, progestin regimen are available in South Africa. The specific mechanisms of action of each of these emergency hormonal contraceptives will be discussed as well as their efficacy, the side effects associated with each of these preparations and the drug interacti

Background: Emergency contraception refers to methods of contraception that can be used to prevent pregnancy after sexual intercourse.

Fertility control is not a modern concept. In virtually every culture of historical importance there is evidence of a desire to control fertility by artificial means ( Dickinson 1970 ). The desire for, as distinct from the achievement of, reliable contraception has been characteristic of many societies widely removed in time and place, even in societies dominated by mores and religious codes demanding that people increase and multiply( Hines 1970 ). Today fertility control is widely seen as a basic right, a right of the individual to the knowledge and means to procreate only when desired. T

However the realisation of these rights in practice has not always met expectations in part due to medical practitioners' ethical objections to termination of pregnancy and the provision of related services.

Abstract:

Adolescents have become focal points of discussions and debates regarding sexuality and reproductive health matters. However, little research has been done particularly in South Africa to examine their knowledge concerning abortion and emergency contraception. Research indicates that a substantial proportion of adolescent pregnancies are unintended or unwanted. Abortion and emergency contraception are both time-sensitive services. Thus having accurate and comprehensive knowledge about both abortion and emergency contraception is pivotal, in the case of unintended or unwanted pregnancy or when

AbstractIn some countries, midwives play a large part in contraceptive care. In many other countries, contraception is not a part of the midwife’s scope of practice till the baby is born. They then have to counsel about contraception and eventually about intervals between pregnancies. For healthy motherhood and good parenthood, the young mother should not become pregnant within a year and a half after childbirth. So counselling or prescribing contraception is an integral part of good postpartum care and falls under the midwife’s responsibility.Every contraceptive method has advantages and disa
