Is papaya worked as contraceptive after sex? I make my partner eat papaya one day after intercourse and she had her periods after 4 days which around a week before her normal cycle. But now her next cycle about to start but she had an abnormal bleeding for few minutes only. Does this indicate to pregnancy?

In South Asia and Southeast Asia, unripe papaya was used to prevent or terminate pregnancy. Once papaya is ripe, though, it loses the phytochemicals that interfere with progesterone and thus its contraceptive and abortifacient properties. The seeds of the papaya could actually serve as an effective male contraceptive.
