Caya Diaphragm
Women are increasingly looking for hormone-free contraception for various reasons. This may be because they do not want or are not allowed to use hormones. Often two methods of contraception remain: the condom or the copper IUD. For many couples, these are not suitable options. The Caya pessary is a hormone-free contraceptive that is suitable for these women.

Caya is a modern pessary of the 21st century. The shape is adapted to the anatomy and ergometry of the woman and therefore offers the advantage that one size fits almost all women. It also eliminates the need for “fitting” by a gynecologist.
The Caya® diaphragm provides security in combination with the Caya® gel.
- The silicone membrane acts as a mechanical barrier
- The Caya® gel forms an additional barrier between the diaphragm and the cervix.
This makes Caya® in combination with the Caya® gel a reliable contraceptive. Comparative clinical research shows that Caya® is as reliable as the classic pessary. The Pearl index is between 1 – 3.
The Caya® pessary is a completely unique barrier contraceptive device and was developed in the United States. Compared to pessaries previously on the market for contraception, the pessary with Caya® has undergone a revolutionary development. Latex has been replaced by a silicone membrane, allowing women with latex hypersensitivity to use Caya® as well.
Meanwhile, the Caya® diaphragm has already been used by more than 100,000 women in countries including the Netherlands and Germany.
The Caya® diaphragm is manufactured in Germany by an ISO-13485-certified manufacturer and received CE certification as a Medical Device in March 2013.
