Setting the Record Straight About Vaginal Contraceptive Film

Question: I am so suprised that nobody is talking or having any comments about VCF which I used all the time. My partner and I are totally confident in that product. Could you touch a word on it?
-Manuel, St Paul,MN

Vaginal contraceptive film (VCF) is a soluble film -- a super thin, wafer-like substance filled with spermicide, usually nonoxynol-9 -- that's inserted into the vagina before intercourse and then "melts," delivering spermicide (chemicals that kill sperm) into the vaginal barrel as a form of contraception. Nonoxynol-9 is also available in jelly, cream, foam, suppository, and tablet forms, and is coated on some lubed condoms; however, these condoms have been found to offer no more protection against pregnancy than those without spermicidal lube.

VCF, when used alone, is far less effective against pregnancy than a condom, which, when used consistently and correctly,[The Condom} offers a 97 percent protection rate. VCF seems to be most effective when used as a back up with another form of birth control. As far as sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) are concerned, although VCF may reduce the risk of getting a bacterial STD, such as gonorrhea and chlamydia, by about 25 percent, it does not protect against them. The only form of birth control effective for STD prevention is a condom.

The following ideas can help increase the contraceptive effectiveness of VCF:

* Using dry, clean fingers, insert one VCF sheet into your vagina, making sure it's placed on or near your cervix.
* Wait at least fifteen minutes after insertion to allow the VCF to dissolve in the vagina before having intercourse.
* Use a new VCF for each sex session as a single application is good for up to only one hour after initial insertion.

Make no mistake: Our mission at Tip Top Equities is to sift through the thousands of underperforming companies out there to find the golden needle in the haystack. A stock worthy of your investment. A stock with the potential for big returns. More often than not, the stocks we profile show a significant increase in stock price, sometimes in days, not months or years. We have come across what we feel is one of those rare deals that the public has not heard about yet. Read on to find out more.

Nano Superlattice Technology Inc. (OTCBB Symbol: NSLT) is a nanotechnology company engaged in the coating of tools and components with nano structured PVD coatings for high-tech industries.

Nano utilizes Arc Bond Sputtering and Superlattice technology to apply multi-layers of super-hard elemental coatings on an array of precision products to achieve a variety of physical properties. The application of the coating on industrial products is designed to change their physical properties, improving a product's durability, resistance, chemical and physical characteristics as well as performance. Nano's super-hard alloy coating materials were especially developed for printed circuit board drills in response to special market requirements

The cutting of circuit boards causes severe wear on the cutting edge of drills and routers. With the increased miniaturization of personal electronics devices the dimensions of holes and cut aways are currently less than 0.2 mm. Nano coats tools with an ultra thin coating (only a few nanometers in thickness) of nitrides which can have a hardness of up to half that of diamond. This has proven to increase tool life by almost ten times. Nano plans to continue research and development into these techniques due to the vast application range for this type of nanotechnology

We believe that Nano is a company on the move. With today?s steady move towards miniaturization we feel that Nano is a company with the right product at the right time. It is our opinion that an investment in Nano will produce great returns for our readers.

Online Stock trading, in the New York Stock Exchange, and Toronto Stock Exchange, or any other stock market requires many hours of stock research. Always consult a stock broker for stock prices of penny stocks, and always seek proper free stock advice, as well as read a stock chart. This is not encouragement to buy stock, but merely a possible hot stock pick.

Sexually Transmitted Diseases

Did You Know.. HIV is the second leading cause of death for Americans between the ages of 25 and 44.

What is HPV?
In the United States, HPV is considered to be the most common sexually transmitted disease (STD). Some studies estimate that the majority of the sexually active population is exposed to at least one or more types of HPV - although most do not develop symptoms. Because HPV is so common and prevalent, a person does not need have to have a lot of sexual partners to come into contact with this virus.
