What is a sponge?
It is a contraceptive barrier that is used to prevent pregnancies. The most popularly marketed was the "Today" sponge. Unfortunately it did not have the success rate claimed a…nd many used it thinking it was not only a contraceptive but as a method of disease prevention. It is still available to purchase. They cost aproxomately $6-9. for a pack of 3. Not too cost effective. They can be difficult to place into the vagina as a cervical block, but I found it to be actually comfortable and didnt hinder penetration. The biggest perk of them is if you have both been tested and are STD free with all certainty and want to experience the pleasure of condomless sex...this is a good way to go. Remember that every method of birth control has its risks and that none are 100% effective! (MORE)
