• Only need to be used when you have sex
• Can be put in at any convenient time before sex
•  Diaphragms and caps may give some protection against cervical cancer and STIs, sponges do not

Any bad points?

• Some women have a problem with cystitis
• Can take time to learn how to use them effectively
• Diaphragms and caps only provide limited protection against STIs, including HIV/AIDS

Where can I get them?

Each must be initially fitted by a doctor or nurse at a GP surgery or family planning clinic. Once fitted, they can be bought from pharmacies.
