New Contraceptive Alert! See Earrings That Now Prevent Pregnancy

Scientists at the Georgia Institute of Technology have developed a new form of birth control that can be placed in earrings.

It has been said to be an alternative to the traditional contraceptive pills, also it will work the same way as the pills.

The scientists have proven that the contraceptive earrings passes the synthetic hormones infused in them into the bloodstream via the earlobe.

The new technology is expected to be a better method as the incident of people forgetting to use their contraceptive will be reduced.

In the latest edition of the Journal of Controlled Release, the scientists reported that tests have proven the earrings to be highly effective.

“Lack of adherence to medication dosing schedules is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality with large associated financial costs,” scientists from the Georgia Institute of Technology said.

“This is especially true for contraceptive hormones, which provide almost perfect prevention of pregnancy when used correctly but have significant failure rates in typical use, due largely to poor adherence.

“To increase medication acceptability and adherence, we introduce pharmaceutical jewelry, in which a transdermal patch is incorporated into jewelry worn on the skin.”
