Solution
Vaults
Explanation:
The vault method of contraception involves inserting a rubber barrier into the female reproductive canal to cover the cervix during coitus. Periodic abstinence is a natural contraceptive strategy that involves couples refraining from sexual activity between days 10 and 17 of the menstrual cycle, when ovulation is predicted. To avoid fertilisation, the male partner may withdraw his penis from the vagina before ejaculation, often known as withdrawal or coitus interruptus. Lactational amenorrhoea is a natural mechanism that occurs during intensive lactation after parturition, as ovulation does not occur at this time.
