Understand the concept of barrier methods of birth control. Barrier methods are designed to prevent sperm from reaching the egg by creating a physical barrier.
Identify the items listed in the problem: Cervical cap, Diaphragm, Condom, and Oral contraceptive pill.
Recognize that the cervical cap, diaphragm, and condom are physical devices that act as barriers to block sperm from entering the uterus.
Consider the function of the oral contraceptive pill. It works by altering hormone levels to prevent ovulation, not by creating a physical barrier.
Conclude that the oral contraceptive pill is not a barrier method because it does not physically block sperm from reaching the egg.
