A member asked:
Is it true that you can't get pregnant after you have your diaphragm removed but gel is still in?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not true: The gel by itself serves as only a partial spermicidal barrier to sperm. The diaphragm provides both a physical and spermicidal barrrier and is far more protective.
