My girlfriend (25) and I (23) have been together for a year and sleep together regularly. When it comes to sex, the topic of contraception naturally comes up… I personally don't like using a condom; it's just too unspontaneous for me and I don't feel it as intensely as I would like. She suggested a…
Does anyone have experience with diaphragma caya and the gel? How safe is the whole thing?
Hey Community, About 5 months ago I switched from a combined contraceptive pill to a mini-pill with only progestin. Unfortunately, it didn't help me. My skin is terrible, my hair is really greasy, and my general well-being is very poor. Yesterday I went to the gynecologist and got the Chariva pill with estrogen and progestin….
The trachea leads to the lungs, which are located in the thorax. So, if you breathe into your stomach, you would have to get the air out of the lungs and through the diaphragm. How does that work? Are there small "passages"?
Many contraceptive methods use hormones, which increase the risk of blood clots. For women who smoke, smoking is thought to exacerbate the situation. Furthermore, there is evidence that smoking can reduce the effectiveness of hormonal contraception, as smoking leads to a decrease in estrogen levels, which in turn plays a role in the effectiveness of…
Hello everyone We discussed this topic very intensively among our friends, and many different opinions and versions emerged. This piqued my curiosity, and I'd love to hear more about your experiences with contraception. Do you rely on the pill, are you team condoms + your own contraceptive method, or do you perhaps have another preferred…
Hey, I'm thinking about using a diaphragm for contraception. Could someone share their own experience with this? Best regards
Hello everyone. I'm in the following situation: I had my hormonal IUD removed yesterday, unexpectedly. I've been experiencing severe mood swings, lack of desire, etc. Now I'm considering using a diaphragm for hormone-free contraception in the future. Does anyone have experience with this? What are the advantages and disadvantages? Thank you in advance!
Hello This isn't about me, but about a friend. She used a diaphragm for contraception and left it in overnight as usual. She woke up in the middle of the night and removed the diaphragm, mistakenly thinking the night was almost over. Her husband woke up when she went to the bathroom and looked at…
Why aren't studies being conducted on male contraception? I mean, doesn't it make more biological sense to not produce any sperm at all, rather than letting them in and then preventing fertilization? It just doesn't make sense to me.
Heyyy, to all women: What kind of contraceptive do you use and how do you rate it? I'm currently struggling because I don't really want to take the pill anymore, and ideally, I don't want to use hormonal contraception at all (for example, I often get irregular heart rhythms because of that, hmm). I would…
If I go to Profamilia to have the Caya diaphragm checked, how exactly is it checked? So, what do they do at Profamilia to check it? I'm a little worried, but I need to make sure that the Caya fits properly.
