Is contraception ‘not in the best interest of humans’?

From a current thread:

. . . one need not believe in God to know the use of contraception is not in the best interest of man and this is something all can know and recognize regardless of belief in God.

And

. . . contraceptive use is unhealthy, anti-woman/sexist, can cause negative physical and psychological harm, and won’t bring man the human fulfillment he deserves.

Is contraception ‘not in the best interest of humans’? If so how and why? Evidence?

Surely it is better to use contraception than risk having an unwanted pregnancy.

Being responsible with our population would seem to me to be in the best interest of humans.
Providing women with contraception options for them to use if they so choose also would seem like something that is in their best interests if not humanities interests as a whole.

Since such things are available to men, why should they not be available to women is what I would wonder.

Devil is in the details I would say.
Absolute contraception would end the human race.
If there was some sort of apocalypse and the breeding pool was diminshed then I would say it is probably the wrong time for caution. Be fruitful and multiply.
An interglactic war might bring the need for more humans to for go the protection, fill the ranks.

Otherwise not so much.

The world is overpopulated so less people having children is a good thing.

There are a number of studies showing that women who never have children have a higher incidence of certain cancers, some mental issues, etc. This isn't the case with all women, and there are some measures that can be taken to curtail these problems in women who are unable to conceive in the first place. These measure could also be used on women who use contraception, but most women are ignorant of the problem to begin with.

These problems become even more pronounced when women are just naturally infertile due to diet, lack of exercise, lack of sleep, drug and alcohol use, etc. Fifty years ago, fertility clinics were rare. A large metropolitan city would usually have no more than one clinic. Now they're everywhere.
