before coitus. Diaphragm works by inhibiting the entrance of the
sperm into the female reproductive organ and it works better when

coitus.

sperm during ejaculation.

pre-lubricated with spermicide. They are usually bound by two
rings. The outer ring is first inserted against the opening of the
female reproductive organ and the inner ring covers the cervix. It is
used to prevent fertilization of the egg by the sperm cells.
