Rick Santorum is a “male-chauvinist” that despite being married with seven children, he Santorum wants to dictate how women should live their lives. Apart from contraceptives being a preventative for pregnancy, it is vitally necessary for women in maintaining good health.

Santorum uses his religious fanaticism; hiding behind his Catholic Religion; whereby hundreds of innocent children have been sexually molested by their Priests for which Santorum has never once condemned. But Obama’s Health Care Reform that requires Employers and Insurers to provide contraceptive free of charge to women, Santorum wants to abolish this guarantee for women under the egis of “Obama is restricting your liberty.”

Under the Obama Health Care Plan, women have the right to request contraceptives and obtain it, or, they have the right to refuse it. Who is more hypocritical; Obama or Santorum?

Obama’s plan gives women the free choice to choose!

Self-righteous Santorum wants to deny you the right to  contraceptives!

Listed below is a detailed list of various contraceptives and their benefits to a healthy life and safe sex.

Cervical Cap

The cervical cap is a small latex cup that a woman inserts into her vagina before sexual intercourse. The cervical cap fits snugly over the woman’s cervix. It is smaller than the diaphragm and is used with spermicidal cream or jelly. The cervical cap works by blocking sperm from entering the uterus.

Contraceptive Patch (“The Patch”)

The contraceptive patch is a thin plastic patch — about the size of a matchbook – that a woman wears on her skin to prevent pregnancy. The patch contains hormones just like the ones in most birth control pills. It releases these hormones through the skin and into the bloodstream. Instead of taking a pill every day, a woman sticks on a new patch each week. The patch works mainly by preventing the ovary from releasing an egg.

Depo-Provera (“The Shot”)

Depo Provera is a shot that a woman gets 4 times a year (every 12 weeks) to prevent pregnancy. It contains medicine that is like progesterone – a hormone that is naturally present in a woman’s body. The shot works mainly by preventing the ovary from releasing an egg.

Diaphragm

The diaphragm is a soft latex dome that a woman inserts into her vagina before sexual intercourse. It fits over her cervix and is held in place by her vaginal muscles. It always needs to be used with spermicidal cream or jelly. The diaphragm works by blocking the opening to the uterus so that sperm cannot enter.

Emergency Contraception (“EC”)**

EC (sometimes called “the morning after pill”) is a special dose of birth control pills that prevents pregnancy up to 5 days after unprotected sex. The sooner EC is taken, the more effective it is. EC is very safe. It is not an abortion pill. EC works mainly by preventing the ovary from releasing an egg.

Condoms*

Condoms are thin barriers made of latex, plastic, or natural membranes. They look like long, thin, deflated balloons. There are both male and female condoms. The male condom fits over a man’s penis. The female condom fits inside a woman’s vagina. Both male and female condoms work by preventing sperm from entering the vagina and reaching an egg.
