A note on terminology

In order to acknowledge that people of many genders and lived experiences have a cervix and may use barrier methods of contraception, including non-binary people, men, women, and people with a range of other gender identities, we use gender-neutral terminology throughout this site except when referring to products and research that specifically use the term “woman” or “female”. In addition, to recognize both the terminology used widely in global contexts, as well as the name-change adopted in 2018 by the US Food and Drug Administration, we use the terms “internal condom” and “female condom” interchangeably.
