The contraception and delivery system (10) further includes a mechanism for flavor delivery (30) formed on an external surface of the tubular member (20). The mechanism for flavor delivery (30) includes at least one longitudinally extended tubular housing (40) having an open first end (42) and a closed second end (46) for containing a predetermined quantity of an ingestible flavored composition. The open first end (42) of tubular housing (40) is provided with a closure (44) adapted to release the ingestible flavored composition into a bodily orifice responsive to an external stimuli.
