Among such populations, about 89% became pregnant in one year. This estimate was lowered slightly (to 85%) to represent the percentage that would become pregnant within one year among women now relying on reversible methods of contraception if they abandon contraception altogether5 Foams, creams, gels, vaginal suppositories and vaginal film6 Cervical mucous (ovulation) method supplemented by calendar in the preovulatory and basal body temperature in the postovulatory phases7 With spermicidal cream or jelly8 Without spermicides9 The treatment schedule is one dose within 72 hours after unprotected intercourse and a second dose 12 hours after the first dose.
