In honor of it being Saturday morning... One of the two mornings of the week that we need Contraceptive information the most... I present you with my useless information of the day!
Had a wild night but forgot to protect yourself?!? Can't find a place that you can get the pill RU-487 (the morning after pill)?!? Don't worry, I got you covered! It is rumored that in many third world countries, a popular contraceptive is Coca-Cola. It seems that the drink is very acidic and when used as a douche, it annihilates everything in its path. Pow! Zap! Wham! Harvard University actually did a scientific study of this and confirmed that it works. Should you ever decide to use this method (I hope you are very desperate if you do), be aware that Diet Coke is better than Classic Coke.
On of the earliest methods for birth control was devised by the ancient Chinese. Women inserted Quicksilver (mercury) to abort the fetus. Worked well, but I'll venture a guess that the women died at a young age.
Later the ancient Egyptians came up with a safer method - honey was mixed with crocodile dung. The acidity of the dung killed the sperm.
The ancient Romans had a very effective method. Women were instructed to jump, cough, and sneeze immediately after intercourse! Note: they had a large population... the must have started the rumor that you could not get pregnant your first time either!
Ancient Greeks told women to scoop out the seeds of a pomegranate half and insert it as a cervical cap.
All these alternative methods that you never knew about (I am not recommending that you try them)!
OMG! thank god for the patch!
