ABSTRACT:
A premoistened ready-for-use vaginal contraceptive device and method of use thereof are described wherein a porous polyurethane sponge is provided which is impregnated with a bacteria-free sterile spermicide, pectin and pH control and swelling agent aqueous solution enclosed within and readily removable from a sealed packet and wherein the premoistened polyurethane sponge with its absorbed components when removed from the packet is immediately inserted in position and is ready for contraceptive use. After one or more coital episodes the sponge is removed, its effective life being up to about 24 hours. The spermicide is present in a maximum of 8% and the pectin constitutes about 5%, both percentages being based on the weight of the solution.
