What is a Scholarly Source? When I use the term scholarly source, I mean a source that is peer reviewed or published in a recognized scholarly source, like a journal or a university publisher. How do you tell the difference between a scholarly source and other sources?
Tell the doctor in charge that you are using this medicine before having any laboratory test, because some test results may be affected. For vaginal creams or suppositories: 1  Avoid using latex condoms, diaphragms, or cervical caps for up to 72 hours after using estrogen vaginal creams.
However, if you have a light flow you can use it while swimming as an alternative to a tampon. 1  A diaphragm can be left in the vagina for up to 24 hours. 2  If you have sex, you must leave your diaphragm in for at least 6 hours following intercourse to prevent pregnancy. 3  Diaphragms do not protect against STDs. Just as you would with a reusable cup, insert the cup before swimming, and leave it in until you can change out of your swimsuit into your regular clothing and switch to another method of period protection.
