Have you tried the Sponge?

Contributor: jr2012 jr2012
I happened across the Today Sponge at the market the other day, and I realized I have never known anyone that has used this product! I am wondering if anyone here has or is using it?

It's not the most effective method out there (70-90% effective depending on who you ask), but it seems female barrier methods tend to be statistically less reliable in general. But it seems like it would be a decent option as a backup method if needed.

Also I'm just curious about it in general, would you mind sharing your experience if you've used it? I'm also interested if you or your partner could feel it during sex.

Thank you in advance!

I've never even heard of this until now. Looking into it, I can see how it could potentially work, but to be honest I'd be leery to use it unless my doctor provided me with enough information and studies backing its effectiveness. Thanks for posting, this is interesting.

I've never used a sponge. I've only used condoms and oral contraceptives. They're the least effective barrier method but most people pair it with a spermicide. The sponge has kind of gone the way of the diaphragm; nearly obsolete.

It might not be a bad idea for women who are breastfeeding if it is non hormonal

My partner and I have both used it and liked it. Neither of us could feel it, though it was a bit messy. Before inserting the sponge you have to wet it and get it frothy, which can be a pain because it gets all over me sometimes.

I've never used it, or even seen it in the stores, heard it's really not very reliable, even when used currently! I'd rather just use condoms and pull out.
