A.
"An added benefit is that it contains my menstrual flow."
B.

ANS: C
The diaphragm should be left in place for 6 hours after intercourse. If intercourse occurs again before 6 hours have passed, the diaphragm must be left in place for 6 hours after the last act of intercourse. Diaphragms should not be used during a woman's menstrual period. Oil-based lubricants such as baby oil can deteriorate the latex. The diaphragm should be replaced every 2 years.
