how do condoms with spermicide work?


Question:


Answers:
The condom, assuming it's used correctly with no holes or tears, catches semen to prevent it from entering the vagina. The spermicide is an added precaution. It kills sperm that come into contact with it, so it further reduces the chance of pregnancy. Remember, of course, that no contraceptive method is 100% effective. The more precautions you take, the better. Condoms are also the only method of contraception that has been proven to help prevent STDs. Some people, however, have irritation from using spermicide. If this happens to you or your partner, you can use condoms without spermicide.
