While most people are familiar with male condoms, femidons, or female condoms are emerging as more reliable way to prevent pregnancy. The femidon is the only other contraceptive available that also blocks the transmission of most STD's. Traditionally, this form of contraceptive has more popularity outside of the United States. Unlike condoms, the insertion of the femidon occurs before intercourse. This can make it much easier for couples to simply enjoy their sexual experience, rather than have to remember that it is time to put on a condom. As may be expected, when contraceptives are in place before intercourse, there is a significantly less chance of forgetting to use them. In many countries, the femidon is preferred because of social interaction issues. Among other things, some literature suggests that groups of women may find themselves able to teach each other how to use them. While this may promote bonding and a sense of comraderie, it would seem that women in America would not necessarily incorporate the femidon into their social interactions. That said, in some parts of the world, femidons can be a matter of life and death. As an example, many men refuse to use condoms, even though they might have intercourse with a sizeable number of women. With the availability of femidons, a woman can have some level of control over the risks of catching STD's from a partner that will not wear appropriate protection. Similar to male condoms, the femidon must be disposed of after each use. Over the years, women in third world countries have been known to reuse femidons. While this may not be as effective as using a new femidon, women in these situations may feel some protection is better than none at all. Unfortunately, when it comes to microbes and sperm, even a thinning or nick in the femidon membrane can translate to the exact same risk as not using protection at all. Because the femidon covers more parts of the genital tract, it tends to be more effective. As an example, where a male condom only covers part of the penis, a femidon covers most of the vagina, as well as the outer genitals. In addition, a femidon will eventually cover all the way to the base of the penis. Similar to condoms, femidons also require lubrication agents. Typically, they come coated on the inside as well as the outside. Finally, femidons can offer increased safety and reliability for certain groups of women. Among other things, femidons are not made from latex. Therefore, if you have an allergy to this substance, you can still use a femidon. Even if you have your period, or have had a hysterectomy, you can still safely use a femidon to prevent the spread of STD's. Today, there are many different kinds of social interactions between men and women. In some countries, it violates the male ego to wear a condom. Unfortunately, unwanted pregnancies and escalating STD rates make for a number of problems. When a woman has a femidon at her disposal, she can actively take control of her right to be protected from STD's, irregardless of whether or not her partner will wear a condom. |

Birth Control Planning and Your Faulty Memory
By Mike Selvon
All the common factors are indeed important when doing your birth control planning, such as how effective each method is, whether you'd be comfortable using it, whether you have some condition that might prevent using some methods or make others preferable. But there's one factor which, ironically, you should never forget, and that is your own memory. If in fact you have a terrible memory, then birth control options that rely on said memory should probably move much lower down on your list.
