Abstract

The Novel Coronavirus disease or COVID 19 started in Wuhan city of China in December 2019 and spread to many countries in a very short period of time. The supply of modern contraceptives was severely affected due to lockdown of various low-and middle-income countries, their manufacture has also come to a standstill because of closure of many pharmaceutical companies. COVID-19 pandemic has not changed the indications and the contraindications for the use of the different hormonal contraceptive methods. The sexual and reproductive health care services are very important for any community even in case of pandemic. Contraception should be seen as an essential component of healthcare and contraceptive counseling should continue to be given during the pandemic. Progestin only pills can be an option in cases where it is not possible to provide an appropriate contraceptive counseling.

Abstract

Yeni Koronavirüs hastalığı veya COVID 19, Aralık 2019'da Çin'in Wuhan kentinde başladı ve çok kısa sürede birçok ülkeye yayılmıştır. Modern kontraseptiflerin tedariki, çeşitli düşük ve orta gelirli ülkelerdeki kısıtlamalar nedeniyle ciddi şekilde etkilenmiş olup, birçok ilaç şirketinin kapanması nedeniyle üretimleri de durma noktasına gelmiştir. COVID-19 salgını, farklı hormonal kontraseptif yöntemlerin kullanımına yönelik endikasyonları ve kontrendikasyonları değiştirmemiştir. Cinsel sağlık ve üreme sağlığı hizmetleri, pandemi durumunda bile her toplum için çok önemlidir. Doğum kontrolü, sağlık hizmetlerinin önemli bir bileşeni olarak görülmeli ve pandemi sırasında da aile planlaması danışmanlığı verilmeye devam edilmelidir. Uygun bir kontraseptif danışmanlığın sağlanmasının mümkün olmadığı durumlarda sadece progestin içeren haplar bir seçenek olabilir.
