There is no evidence from controlled trials on the contraceptive effectiveness of diaphragm versus diaphragm with spermicides.
A Cochrane review included one study with 164 subjects. No significant difference was found in the pregnancy rates or discontinuation rates between the groups. However, the study failed to recruit the planned number of participants and was consequently underpowered.
Comment: The quality of evidence is downgraded by sparse data and severe study limitations.
