The diaphragm is a type of Birth Control. It is a soft latex or silicone dome with a spring molded into the rim. The spring creates a seal against the walls of the vagina.
Diaphragms come in different sizes so a fitting appointment with a health care professional is necessary to determine which size a woman should wear.
The spring in the rim of the diaphragm forms a seal against the vaginal walls. The diaphragm covers the cervix, and physically prevents sperm from entering the uterus.
Advantages:-
- The diaphragm only has to be used during intercourse.
- Diaphragms may be inserted several hours before use, allowing uninterrupted foreplay and intercourse. Most couples find that neither partner can feel the diaphragm during intercourse.
- The diaphragm is less expensive than many other methods of contraception.
