The contraception and prophylaxis enhancement system (10) is provided for use by women, having a one-piece formation which includes an extended tubular member (12) coupled to a genital shield member (14). Contraceptive system (10) includes an absorbent fluid capturing element (40) disposed within the distal end (30) of tubular member (12). In addition to its fluid absorbing function, absorbent fluid capturing element 40 applies an elastic biasing force to the tubular wall (31) of tubular member (12) for biasing wall (31) against the interior surface of the vaginal cavity, thereby providing a mechanism for retaining tubular member (12) therein. Further, contraceptive system (10) includes a mechanism for inserting tubular member (12) within the vaginal cavity. A tubular container (50) provides both the instrumentality for insertion and placement of tubular member (12) within the vaginal cavity, as well as providing an internal cavity (56) for storage of the prophylactic assembly (11) and the retention straps (18).
