• The method of interrupted sexual intercourse. A man makes love with his partner and does not finish sexual intercourse. Before the onset of orgasm, he extracts a member and directs it to the container. Thus, the ejaculate is in the cup
• Condom. It is worth noting that before sexual intercourse the condom needs to be washed, since most latex contraceptives are lubricated with spermicides that slow down the speed of spermatozoa. A man has sex in this condom, the contents of which then transfer it to a container with a lid
