An expert on maternity pack: « It is important that the condoms are involved »
Parenthood|According to the expert, prevention is forgotten by many new parents. Indeed, a significant proportion of interruptions are made for those who were born less than two years ago.
The abstract is made by artificial intelligence and checked by man.
Kela’s new maternity pack lacks condoms and lubricants because they were not offered.
Prevention is forgotten by many new parents, and a significant part of interruption of pregnancy is made for mothers of children under one year of age.
According to an expert from the Population Association, condoms and lubricants should be in the maternity pack.
Breastfeeding dries the mucous membranes, which, according to the expert, would be an important part of the maternity pack.
”There is It is very important that the condoms and lubricants are included in the maternity pack. ”
This is how the Sexual Welfare Expert of the Population Association Outi Danielsson. He has previously worked at the maternity and child clinic and the contraceptive clinic.
On Thursday, Kela announced a new maternity pack with no condoms and lubricant. Kela did not receive any offers, so they were left out of the package.
According to Danielsson, it is a pity that this happened, because prevention « wants to » forget « just after pregnancy.
The first sex may come unexpectedly, and contraception may not have been purchased or even thought about. Therefore, it would be good to find contraceptives at home, says Danielsson.
« A significant proportion of abortion is made for those who have given birth less than two years ago, » he points out.
Part Parents believe breastfeeding is sufficient and reliable pregnancy. However, experts do not recommend it as the only method of contraception, says Danielsson.
If you are breastfeeding regularly at night every 4-6 hours, breast milk is the only nutrition of the baby and menstruation has not begun, breastfeeding may serve as a pregnancy contraception for six months of childbirth.
« However, it is unique when the sure power will end. For example, it may be influenced by the fact that the child is sometimes given a bottle of milk. »
Breastfeeding affects a woman’s hormone function in a very similar way as menopause. The mucous membranes of the vaginal can dry, causing the lubricant to be given a special need.
« After all, leaving these also gives the message that parents of young children do not have sex, » Danielsson says.
When Danielsson worked at a contraceptive clinic, had clients who, during his first pregnancy, had not noticed any postpartum contraception at all.
« As they waited for their second child, they wanted to come pregnant when they were pregnant and think about it. »
It is also worth considering contraception if you have your first child with fertility treatments.
« Some have trusted that my own fertility is not so good, but after the first pregnancy, the second pregnancy has started to move more easily. »
