To understand what ContraGel (also branded as Caya Gel) is, and how it can be used as an effective part of an all natural birth control system, it is important to first understand what it is not. ContraGel is not a spermicide. To be classed as a spermicide, a product must contain Nonoxynol-9, a chemical that effectively kills sperm.
Of course, ContraGel was formulated to be body and earth friendly and therefore does not contain N-9. Consequently, ContraGel is not classed as a spermicide, but a contraceptive gel.
This also means that while spermicide is often used as a stand-alone method of contraception, ContraGel is only approved for use with a barrier contraceptive ie, a diaphragm, FemCap, or Caya. Its formulation increases the effectiveness of the barrier contraceptive, but on its own ContraGel is not an effective method of contraception.
How ContraGel Works
Unlike spermicide, ContraGel does not kill sperm. So how does it work?
ContraGel is interdependent with the barrier contraceptive it is applied to. The ingredient methyl cellulose gives ContraGel is thick viscous consistency, and when applied to the barrier contraceptive it creates a second physical barrier to prevent sperm from entering the cervix.
ContraGel also effects the PH level of the vagina. Vaginal PH is critical to allowing sperm to travel up into the cervix. ContraGel alters the PH of the vagina and creates an inhospitable environment for sperm.
ContraGel Is Proven As Effective As Spermicide
In an outstanding new medical study, ContraGel was proven to be just as effective as Nonoxynol-9 spermicides when paired with a barrier contraceptive
