Femprotect - Lactic Acid Contraceptive Gel...
Femprotect is a reliable
spermicidal gel. It was first developed by NVSH in the Netherlands for use with
diaphragms, cervical caps and condoms under the name Contracep Green which was
tested in the laboratories of NVSH and strictly to the norms of IPPF
(International Planned Parenthood Federation). Because of its natural
composition Femprotect doesn't damage latex diaphragms, caps or condoms.
Additionally, Femprotect is a good water based lubricant for use during any
sexual activity. (note: Never use oil or petroleum based lubricants together
with latex diaphragms, caps or condoms). Fempotect is manufactured by the German
pharmacy MERKUR-Apotheke,NŸrnberg.

No method of
contraception is 100% effective therefore decisions made about your
contraception should be informed and carefully considered. Natural spermicides
have been shown to compare favourably to chemical spermicides in immobilising
sperm in laboratory tests and anecdotally with similar efficacy when used with a
diaphragm or cap. However because there has been no large scale clinical
trials to prove the efficacy of natural spermicides using these as an
alternative to chemical spermicides has to be an individual woman's informed
choice.
