Contraceptives are the drugs or devices which not only inhibit pregnancy but also sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). The contraceptive devices are available in various forms such as coil, loop, triangle, and T-shaped, and are made of plastic or metal. Currently the trend witnessed in the global contraceptive devices market is the development of products such as self-administrative contraceptive injections, vaginal rings, non-surgical permanent contraception devices, sub-dermal contraceptive implants, etc. The contraceptive products are in the market for more than 50 years and are used by 100 million women across the globe.
