No, as contraceptive is only meant to prevent pregnancy, not protect against STD's.

Answer:

no

Step-by-step explanation:

Women must begin using hormonal contraceptives in advance before they become effective. For some women, hormonal preparations are associated with unpleasant side effects or increased health risks.
