Introduction For many years, the human population has skyrocketed to a high level and raised an alarm in all sectors of life like the economy, politics and society. However, research has been carried out to identify ways of regulating the soaring population that threatens the existence of human life. Due to this, controversies have emerged regarding the ways through which the increase of human beings should be regulated. Through extensive research, it has been noted that the human population growth rate can be controlled. This essay aims at outlining the human sexuality birth control methods and the necessary actions needed to be taken to upshot their use. Essay Body Researchers have noted that many hormonal birth control methods are effective in population regulation by introducing them to the human body. The hormonal contraceptives are taken orally just like any other drugs and include the daily pills taken by a sexually active lady and the emergency pills that are taken after every sexual encounter (Eldridge, p. 45). Some are injected directly into the bloodstream after every three months by a sexually active woman while others, like the implants, are inserted into the women through surgical means and may last several years depending on the wish of the user. It should be noted that all these methods are advisedly used after medical examination to determine their effectiveness to the user. They are all reversible and once stopped, the woman can conceive. In other cases, people may decide to use surgical means of regulating the population growth rate. They include tubal ligation that involves the cutting of the fallopian tube which supplies ova to the uterus for fertilization it can also be done on men through vasectomy which involves the cutting of the vas deference that supplies sperms from the male reproductive system to the female reproductive system. Through vasectomy, there will be no fertilization since the sperm cells will be blocked from getting out of the male reproductive system. These methods are permanent and hence individuals need to think well before they opt to go for them (Tone 70). In addition, they are costly compared to other methods of birth control available. Other methods of human population control include the use of insertable barrier contraceptives like the diaphragm, cervical cap, spermicides, contraceptive sponge, coils, copper-T, copper-7 and the loop. All these are individually inserted in the female reproductive system and block the entrance of male reproductive cells to the uterus hence inhibiting fertilization and are done by gynaecologists (Eldridge, p. 52). Their validity depends on the user’s preferred ‘infertility’ time frame before conception hence they are temporary means of population regulation. The human population growth rate can also be regulated by the use of artificial means that do not require any gynaecologist’s analysis of the individuals involved. They are used just before and during sexual encounters and they are replaceable. They include the male and female condoms that are widely available at supermarkets, chemists and ordinary shops. In addition, natural means have also been widely used as birth control tools that involve the safe day sexual encounters in which a fertile woman observes
