Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Studies have found that women who frequently used spermicides as their method of contraception were at greater risk for HIV transmission. This is because spermicides containing nonoxynol-9 can cause irritation and small tears in the genital area, making it easier for HIV to enter the body. Other forms of contraception, such as condoms, have been found to be effective in preventing HIV transmission.
