2010 - all progressive mankind celebrates. In 1960 in the US it appeared the first in the world pill and the era hormonal contraception .
Of course, the very first drugs were not the most successful . Manufacturers, primarily worried about the reliability of contraceptive drug . Therefore, the dose of hormones in these pills, from today's point of view, were just "horse" . Each tablet contained about the same amount of hormone, but in modern pills 5-7 . Yes, and the hormonal composition of the drug left much . But that was only the beginning . Contraceptive boom in the United States coincided with the sexual revolution - hippies, drugs and rock-n-roll . Thousands of women were able to independently control the birth, just drinking one tablet per day . Soon it became apparent to researchers first imperfect contraceptive . Women celebrated many side effects . But studies have just begun . By the way, 50 years for the pharmaceutical business - period giant . Those opportunities offered by today's tablets do not even dreamed of researchers in the 60s . Is that in my wildest dreams .
In the 70-ies of WHO (World Health Organization) said the real possibility of reducing maternal mortality by the year 2000 by 2 times. In 1970, the year it was 500 thousand. Women who died due to pregnancy and childbirth. Interestingly, this plan failed miserably. In 1999, the maternal mortality rate was 590 thousand. Cases (increased by 20%). From these fantasies and why they did not come true. The fact that nothing WHO experts did not offer. Just to increase the interval between pregnancies up to 2 years, and to reduce the number of births to women over 40 years. And to achieve this could be by using family planning methods, ie contraception.
What went wrong? The principles of family planning have not received support in the regions, where the birth rate was initially high - India, Africa, Caribbean. The cult of the family and many children, the statement that "it is necessary to plan the number of livestock" and did not solve the problem posed by the WHO. In more civilized (still not afraid of the word) regions - Western Europe, USA, Canada - on the contrary, we accepted the idea to "Hurrah!" Today, these countries are rarely brought up in families more than one child, and the question is quite different - the demographic situation worsens and the state carries out programs to support the birth rate.
But there it was, manicured European women have become accustomed to the comfort that provides Mr. ormonalnaya contraception . Using birth control pills in these countries ranges from 50 to 75%, but the number of abortion 3 times less than in Russia.
What about our great country? As always, there is his thorny path. Let's start with the fact that "in the Soviet Union did not have sex." And the more there was no birth control pills . The primary means of birth control in Russia was and remains ABORTION !!!
First, the accused ... Guess who? Well, of course, obstetricians! After all, it is they, abortion earning a living, created in society a negative opinion about this method of contraception. Today, in the year of the 50th anniversary of the birth control pills every day we meet at the reception of women who look with horror at the doctor, trying to assign adequate contraceptive and say that the pills get fat and grow a mustache. The most advanced of them say that the pill is breast cancer and acne.
Sorry, ladies, this is beyond criticism. We treat these drugs acne and male pattern body hair, Hormone kontatseptsiya - Is prevention of endometrial cancer and ovarian cancer, tablets reduce the frequency of exacerbations of inflammatory diseases of the uterus ... But to talk about it, it seems useless! It's some genetic fear or fear imbibed with mother's milk. It is useless to explain that once upon a time in the USSR control pills imported from Hungary, sister, it was difficult to obtain and it is impossible to individually choose. What's tablet is not the same as completely different!
By the way, before the 1980 contraceptive drugs was not a word in the medical textbooks. After all, sex is still not there. Therefore, doctors do not really know a lot and contraception. But what to say today - a 51-year application of the method - patients come from a completely wild regimen of pills. I asked: "Who taught you so? "-" The Doctor. " - "Did you read the instructions? There is not as it is written! "-" I read, but the doctor has appointed differently. " Collapse. Here it is - a belief in the infallibility of the doctor. Faith, which we so often lacking when we're talking about hormone therapy or hormonal contraception . And outrageous need to believe in any nonsense. You live in the woods? No access to the internet? Instructions written to the drug evil and stupid people? Ay?
Finally, angry voice: "Oxana! What are birth control pills? What are you, do not watch TV? We depopulation in Russia and the "Russian Cross"! We need to increase the birth rate, but not birth control pills to drink! "
Only numbers. According to the Federal State Statistics Service of Russia, 2010 at 76, 3 million. Women. Of these 10, 8% (3, 7 million.) Was used hormonal contraception. Navy stands at 13, 1% (5, 7 million.).
76, 1% did not use contraception at all, or use "magic" practices such as douching or interrupted sexual intercourse. EVERY SECOND PREGNANCY IN RUSSIA end in abortion. Tell how many of them are fruitless then?
"... Contraception in its current incarnation does not reduce fertility, but only increases it. Giving preference to contraception, not abortion, women maintain their health for the future of motherhood. "
Vera Prilepskaya, MD, professor, deputy. Director for Science FSI "NC Agip them. Kulakov "(Moscow).
By the way, our medical center does not do abortions. None.
