Contraceptives are devices to prevent fertilization. The main form of contraceptive is Birth Control. The birth control triggers the hormones in your body which stop the eggs from becoming fertilized. On the other hand, birth controls such as the sponge are inserted inside the vagina and block the sperm/kill sperm and does not allow the egg to be fertilized. The best way is to speak with your doctor about the right contraceptive for you. You should know things like: how long do you want to go without having children, how long after the contraceptive can you get pregnant, is weight gain an issue for you, etc.
