This is an overview of the information in The Christian and Birth Control book, published by Christian Life Resources. To purchase the book click on the link at the bottom of this page. Barrier methods are designed to create an impenetrable barrier between sperm and egg. Male Condom: The male condom is a mechanical barrier made of either latex, polyurethane or natural membranes which prevents pregnancy by stopping sperm before, during and after intercourse. Female Condom: Known by the name, "Reality," this mechanical barrier is made of polyurethane. It is an insertable pouch with flexible rings on both sides. It prevents pregnancy by stopping sperm. Diaphragm, Cervical Cap: Mechanical barrier made of soft rubber which when coated with a spermicidal product, is inserted into the vagina prior to intercourse: the diaphragm covers the woman’s cervix and the cervical cap covers the cervix itself. The diaphragm is a shallow, dome-shaped cup with flexible rim; the cervical cap is a smaller thimble-shaped device. Spermicides: Spermicides are creams, jellies, gels, or suppositories which are designed to stop the movement or kill most sperm. Alone, spermicides are considered less effective than if used with a barrier method. With a barrier the effectiveness increases.
