A contraceptive suppository capsule is a barrier method of birth control. It starts off as a solid capsule that is inserted deep into the vagina. The heat of the body causes the suppository to melt, creating a liquid that immobilizes sperm, preventing it from joining with the egg.
The contraceptive suppository capsule is a barrier method that is completely reversible and available over the counter. Each suppository has a limited window of effectiveness - they are not long term birth control. Contraceptive suppository capsules do not prevent the spread of sexually transmitted infections and are best paired with condoms.
