Birth control options existed even thousands of years ago. Pregnancy prevention always was an important issue especially for some animals. It is well known that during long marches on desert caravans, Bedouins put stones into female camel’s uterus for pregnancy prevention.
First contraception for women was invented in Egypt – the Egyptian pessary is the earliest contraceptive device for women made of crocodile dung, honey and sodium carbonate. Ancient books described how some queens had gold rings in the uterus for contraception reasons. So, people have used birth control methods for thousands of years. Nowadays birth control options are better developed – they are much more effective and safe.
Every healthy woman can get pregnancy every month because evolution prepared female body for reproduction.
