What is a vaginal contraceptive film?

The vaginal contraceptive film is a thin film soluble in water that contains a spermicide and is used as a form of contraception. Spermicide is a substance that kills sperm, but its efficiency is generally not good enough to be used separately. If it is combined with a film rather than a lubricant or a condom, it is placed above the cervix of the female vagina using a finger to push it back. The partner can help correctly place the vaginal contraceptive film, but should not be pushed back with the penis or touch with wet hands. The efficiency of the vaginal contraceptive film is very poor compared to other methods of contraception control, although it is used perfectly.

steps to properly use the vaginal contraceptive film as methods of contraception are often considered important distributors and advocates of family planning. One step is that the person who applies the film to cleanse carefullyAnd she dried her hands, as a film is designed to dissolve when in contact with moisture and can stick to the hand on his hands. The second step is to put the film into a rectangle in a way that contributes to its finger, but still remains easy to remove when it is inserted into the vagina. Finally and sometimes it is considered the most important, it is to put them as far as possible in the vagina, with the aim that it was placed at the entrance to the cervix. If the film is shallowly in the vagina, only a small contraceptive advantage can be offered, if it exists, because the spermicide may not come into contact with the semen, it is deployed to destruction.

When the instructions are perfectly followed, these films have 18 % of the failure rate, but the typical use has 29 % of the failure rate. For this reason, most healthcare workers recommend using the film as a primary method of contraception; Instead, they often design the use of films as a backup method in combination with a man or a female condom, a contraceptive pill or a contraceptive fungus. OnThe beginning of the 90s, when the vaginal contraceptive film gained popularity, some of the film providers recommended using two films to protect against sexually transmitted diseases (STD).
