Sterilization
Sterilization for contraception is a very good method of contraception after the child has been conceived at an advanced age. In Germany, about 7% of women and 2% of men can be sterilized after family planning has been completed.
The morning after pill
The special feature of the “morning after pill” is that if one of the other contraceptives is used inadequately, it can be taken up to 48 hours after intercourse and can prevent pregnancy. This form of contraception consists of tablets containing high doses of progestins or progestins and estrogens which prevent ovulation as well as the implantation (nidation) of the egg.
