What are the advantages of the Sponge?- Foam gives a women control over contraception.
- It is available over the counter without a visit to a clinician.
- It can be put into the vagina 20 minutes before sexual intimacy, but it is also effective immediately if you want to have sex right after putting foam into the vagina.
- Foam is safe, no hormones are involved, and it is immediately reversible.
- The man's penis can remain inside the vagina after ejaculation.
- Foam adds lubrication and moisture.
- Lubrication, in the case of foam, may heighten satisfaction in both partners.
- Foam can be used during breastfeeding.
- It can serve as immediate back-up if a condom should slip or break.
