Birth control or just condom/spermacide

Hi....
I'm planning on having sex with my boyfriend this month. We're not planning on reguarly doing it because we don't get the opportunity to see each other very much. After I see him in December, I won't see him in April. He says he will use a condom. I have a perscription for birthcontrol; however, I don't really want to take it. I have a thyroid problem and I'm uneasy about the birth control pill. Would it be reasonable to use a condom with spermacide or with a sponge? Instead of having to go on birthcontrol for just one night?Does anyone have any advice?

Thanks so much for your help. I have another question: from what I can see conceptrol is not sold in Canada...you wouldn't happen to know the equivalent brand sold in Canada would you?
