Will Spermicide Work After Intercourse?

Spermicide is used to prevent pregnancy. It kills sperm or stops sperm from moving. For it to work well, you must use spermicide each time you have sexual intercourse.

Do you use spermicide before or after?

Spermicides must be placed in the vagina before sexual intercourse. The instructions will say how long before sex the spermicide should be used. Most must be placed in the vagina at least 10 to 15 minutes before sex so they have enough time to dissolve and spread.

Does VCF gel work after intercourse?

EC pills work by preventing or delaying ovulation and preventing sperm from fertilizing the egg. You can use EC right away or up to five days after sex. The sooner you use it, the better it works.
