Diaphrams work by preventing implantation.. Do not let a physician tell you otherwise. I will not put them in for this reason.

I think you are thinking of IUD's. Diaphragms/cervical caps are placed in the vagina, not the uterus, and only attempt to block the passage of sperm and to keep spermacidal jelly/foam in place. I know of no evidence that they prevent implantation of a fertilized ovum. Do you?

BTW, I agree, you can't trust physicians as far as you can throw them! ;)

Yes I meant IUD's. I got so angry when a hispanic woman came in and asked about getting an IUD places. She told me she used one before. I informed her how they work,pros and cons of using one. I noticed she got an awful look on her face and tears in her eyes. She had no idea that they worked that way. She said she was never told. She did not ever want an IUD again.
