Answer:

The correct option is: B. Contraceptive diaphragm

Step-by-step explanation:

Contraception, also known as birth control, are the various methods like barrier methods, hormonal contraception, sterilization, intrauterine devices, and behavioral methods, that are used to prevent pregnancy.

The hormonal method of contraception includes vaginal rings, injections, patches and oral contraceptive pills. This contraceptive method involves the use of steroid hormones- estrogen, progestin, and progesterone.

Whereas, the barrier method of contraception includes condoms, contraceptive sponges, diaphragms and the fertility awareness methods.

Therefore, contraceptive diaphragm is not a hormonal method of contraception.
