A cervical cap is a silicone cup you insert in your vagina. It covers your cervix and keeps sperm out of your uterus. You need to use a cervical cap with spermicide for it to be most effective. Immediately effective. It has no hormones and can be inserted up to 6 hours before sexual intercourse.

Usually no side effects. Some women might experience irritation or discomfort. Doesn’t protect against sexually transmitted infections (STIs). To know more about this contraceptive method, visit the website findmymethod.org.

Here you will get complete information: how to use, its side effects etc.
