Yes, anonymous, you are quite wrong. A doctor taught me how to use a diaphram properly and showed me how to feel for my cervix. Perhaps that's why I never got pregnant while using this form of birth control for many years. (and no, I'm not infertile. I have 2 kids that I conceived while not using birth control.)
