Birth Control Spermicides (cont.)

When to Call the Doctor

If any abnormality is present that may prevent proper placement of the spermicide, talk to a health care provider before using.
 
If irritation occurs after a spermicide is inserted, sensitivity to the product is possible. Changing to a different product may help. Consult a health care provider or pharmacist for advice. Do not continue to use the product.
