VCF Vaginal Contraceptive Film
Posted: 02-07-08 15:51pm

Hi, I wanted to get peoples' opinion on this product. I am already on birth control but am looking for a secondary protectoin method other then condoms. Also, I was specifically interested in if this product creates a bad taste or foul odor. I have read that the foam can taste and smell bad but have found nothing about VCF. Therefore, any opinions on this product would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

VCF is a great second method, but it does tend to have a very foul odor and taste.

Another option is the Today Sponge, it is a spermicidal sponge that also soaks up the sperm.

The today sponge is effective IMMEDIATELY, no waiting 20 minutes like VCF.

ALSO, you could have oral sex play, and then when you are ready you could just stick a sponge inside of you.

When I was on antibiotics, I used a spermicide along with my birth control. I liked it because it kind of just felt like extra lube. It didn't have a foul odor. I'm not sure about the taste, though.
