yes . vinegar was among one of the first contraceptives used in the olden days for example like Egypt. vinegar kills the sperms due to the fact that it contain acid. up to this day its still one of the effective techniques speaking from my experience. the only thing is the sponged vinegar has to be inserted inside the vulva before sexual intercourse otherwise pregnancy can occur if applied afterward. This IS NOT OLD HOUSE WIVES TALE but try it at your own risk.

What is a contraceptive sponge?
The contraceptive sponge is a round piece of white plastic foam. It has a dimple on one side and a nylon loop across the top. It is 5 cm across, and you insert it into your vagina before you have intercourse. The sponge works in two ways: it keeps sperm from getting into your uterus by blocking your cervix, and also continuously releases spermicide. The sponge needs to be completely wet to activate the spermicide. Make sure to squeeze it to distribute the water. You can find all the important information about different contraceptive methods at findmymethod.org.
