How Does the Cervical Cap Work?
The cervical cap works to prevent pregnancy by blocking the cervix, which is the entrance to the uterus. The cervical cap tightly covers the cervix, preventing sperm from entering the uterus and fertilizing an egg. The cap is held in place by your vaginal muscles, which stop it from becoming dislodged during intercourse. The cervical cap is intended to be used with spermicide, which works to kill any sperm that come into contact with the cap.
