From 1996 to 2000, a UN-sponsored study carried out in several locations in Africa followed nearly 1000 sex workers who used nonoxynol-9 gels or a placebo. Eso sí, debo hacerles la anotación: pruébenlo varias veces antes de tener relaciones sexuales y asegúrense de que está bien puesto, no se siente que llevas algo dentro y no incomoda durante el coito, recuerden usar condón para prevenir contagio de enfermedades, porque el diafragma no las protegerá en ese sentido. About 34% of women confirmed they are more relaxed having sex with the Caya diaphragm—it’s even better than before. The Faculty of Sexual and Reproductive Healthcare (FSRH) is the leader in the field of sexual and reproductive healthcare, and we are the voice for professionals working in this area. By using a gel in such a way the main contraceptive benefit is reducing the risk of 'contamination,' i.

The Caya® diaphragm can be used up to 2 years after the first use before replacement unless Caya® becomes damaged or in cases of vaginal infection. Removal Dome: Caya incorporates a small dome at the front of the device that serves as a hook for easier to removal.

The moment of intimacy shouldn’t be interrupted by use either, as insertion can be done up to two hours ahead of sex, and Caya needs to be left in for 6 hours after sex. Before inserting the diaphragm, Caya Gel is to be applied generously into the cervical cup and onto the external rim of the diaphragm. The abrasions within the vagina can cause irritation and can also damage skin cells, which can increase the risk of transmitting diseases such as HIV. A single size contraceptive cap, FemCap, has been available since 2004, but until recently diaphragm products have been made in a range of sizes and designs.

The Availablity of Caya should increase the number of women who are confident in replacing their hormonal birth control with this all-natural, highly effective, and side effect free birth control alternative. Ich habe das Diaphragma überhaupt nicht gespürt und noch ein positiver Aspekt, selbst mein Partner hat es überhaupt nicht gemerkt! However, remember that intercourse only has the risk of pregnancy for about 6 days per cycle during your fertility window.Caya has an anatomical, oval shape that fits the majority of women – therefore, Caya does not have to be adjusted by a doctor, and it is available in one size. I am a bit of a hippie and do not like taking hormones (I was on the pill for years and it doesn't really agree with me). Possible itchiness which can sometimes be casued by using traditional Nonoxynol 9 (N9) based spermicide can be a distraction just when pleasure should be the focus.

You will need to leave Caya in for 6 hours after your partner’s last ejaculation to ensure the sperm are inactive. With more couples demanding non-hormonal birth control and contraceptive options, the Caya was concieved as the way forward, bringing the 50 year old diaphragm into the 21st century. The gel is easy to use and would really suggest getting the one with the additional applicator because it makes putting it in a lot easier than using your finger.When most people hear the word “diaphragm,” they might think about that muscle located beneath the lungs that engages when we breathe or laugh. During this time, you're not protected against pregnancy and need to use additional contraception, such as condoms, when you have sex. When inserted correctly, the diaphragm covers the cervix and is positioned in the upper part of the vagina, between the pubic bone and the vaginal walls. These numbers are based on the typical requirements of three to four ml applied to diaphragms and cervical caps for each act of intercourse. I love how the gel isn't full of irritant chemicals like the NHS Nonoxynol-9, but has been shown in studies to be just as effective.
