Barrier contraceptive methods, such as condoms and diaphragms, physically prevent sperm from reaching the egg, thus reducing the risk of pregnancy. Hormonal contraceptives, like birth control pills, patches, or injections, work by regulating hormones to prevent ovulation, thicken cervical mucus, or thin the uterine lining. While barrier methods can also provide protection against sexually transmitted infections (STIs), hormonal methods do not offer this benefit. Overall, the choice between these methods often depends on individual health, convenience, and personal preferences.
No, the diaphragm does not prevent ovulation. The diaphragm is a barrier method of contraception that works by physically blocking sperm from entering the uterus. It does not affect the hormonal processes involved in ovulation, which occur independently of barrier methods. To prevent ovulation, hormonal contraceptives such as the pill or hormonal IUDs are required.

Non-barrier methods of contraception include hormonal methods, such as birth control pills, patches, injections, and intrauterine devices (IUDs). These methods work by regulating hormones to prevent ovulation or creating an environment that is inhospitable to sperm. Other non-barrier options include fertility awareness methods and sterilization procedures, such as tubal ligation or vasectomy. Unlike barrier methods, these do not physically block sperm from reaching the egg.
The barrier method
There are several types of contraceptives, including hormonal methods like birth control pills, patches, and injections, which regulate hormones to prevent ovulation. Barrier methods, such as condoms and diaphragms, physically block sperm from reaching the egg. Intrauterine devices (IUDs) are inserted into the uterus to prevent fertilization or implantation. Additionally, there are permanent options like sterilization and natural methods that rely on tracking fertility cycles.
