Can I use the Oves cap without spermicide?
• For maximum protection against pregnancy most authorities advise using spermicides in conjunction with barrier contraceptives. However, the extra degree of protection this might give has not been accurately determined. It is recommended that the Oves contraceptive cap is used with a spermicide. However, if you have a problem with using a spermicide e.g. allergy, talk this through with your family planning adviser.
