Solution: Hormonal contraceptives all contain a small amount of human-made estrogen and progesterone hormones. These hormones inhibit the body's natural hormones to prevent pregnancy in a few ways. Mala-N and Mala –D are used as oral contraceptive pills.
The diaphragm is a small dome-shaped latex cup with a flexible ring that fits over the cervix. The cup acts as a physical barrier against the entry of sperm into the uterus. A diaphragm is usually used along with spermicide.
The cervical cap is a birth control (contraceptive) device that prevents sperm from entering the uterus. The cervical cap is a reusable, deep silicone cup that is inserted into the vagina and fits tightly over the cervix. The cervical cap is held in place by suction and has a strap to help with removal. The cervical cap is effective at preventing pregnancy only when used with spermicide.
The copper T IUD is hormone-free. The copper triggers the body's immune system to prevent pregnancy. It prevents pregnancy by stopping sperm from reaching and fertilizing eggs.
