Injection or pills: If you only need contraception for a couple of months, you could use Depo Provera (medroxyprogesterone).

They should be started while you are on your period before your husband gets home.  Then you will be ready.   Best Wishes!

Question 9

should i use spermicide as contraception? is spermicide a good form of contraception?

Accepted Answer

Spermicide : Spermicide is not a great form of contraception by itself.  The failure rate is a bit too high.   And remember, spermicide may not completely protect against sexually transmitted infections either.  However, used in conjunction with condoms, spermicide is a very effective form of contraception and helps protect again sexually transmitted infections. Many condoms brands come with spermicidal lubricant included.  If you are trying not to get pregnant, you really want to use something that give you the best chance to not get pregnant.  Some options for that are:
iud's (intrauterine devices) which are small pieces of plastic or copper that are inserted into the uterus in the doctor's office with minimal discomfort and no anesthesia needed that can stay in for 5-10 years and be easily removed if future pregnancy is desired, a vaginal ring that you yourself put into the vagina once per month, a contraceptive patch that goes on the skin.  There are also permanent procedures including tubal ligation (tubes tied) for women and vasectomy for men when people are done having all the children they want. There are also a bunch of different kinds of birth control pills that are highly effective if taken correctly.   There are a few other ones as well, but aren't used very often.
