the most popular form was coitus or withdrawal. there are also certain herbs that women drank in order to prevent conception. but these were later found to be either abortitative or poisonous.

the intestines I read about in some novel because the gents during the medieval ages needed protection from sypillis!

Sheep skin has been used for a very long time. I read it's been used as a form of contraception back in the days of the Roman Empire

Actually, there are still sheepskin condoms available today :D.

I guess people even those that came before us, liked sex but did not want to get pregnant all the time! Some of their ideas were pretty wild!!!

And Yeah, I saw some lambskin condoms... LOLZ about the biodegradable...
