Contraception is a method used to prevent pregnancy. Several contraceptives, such as hormonal drugs, physical barriers, and advanced contraceptive devices have been developed in order to prevent unwanted pregnancy. Contraceptives also help in preventing sexually transmitted infections. According to a report published by Guttmacher Institute, a non-profit organization working in advance sexual and reproductive health, 213.4 million pregnancies occurred across the globe in 2012, of which 40.0% were unintended. Also, high number of sexually transmitted infection is a major concern across the globe. According to the WHO, in 2013, 35.0 million people lived with HIV/AIDS and 1.5 million people died due to AIDS –related illness worldwide. The organization also reported that an estimated 500 million new curable sexually transmitted infections (including chlamydia, gonorrhoea, syphilis and trichomoniasis only) occur across the globe each year.
