Of course hormones aren't an option... I'm not sure how reliable the calculating cycle days and measuring body temperature method is... So are condoms the only safe method of birthcontrol?
Great question - wish I had a better answer. The advantage to condoms is the disease protection and birth control in one - I haven't heard of any other method that gives as much protection.
Fertility Awareness Method in different than the rhythm method of yore that didn't work so well. With FAM it is recommended that you use barrier protection or abstain at certain times of the month when your fertility is at its peak. The side benefit of this method is that you really get to know your cycle and your body. I hope that helps!
I too am having great (and natural) experiences with FAM. Just wrote about it on another thread and thought I'd add it here as well. The resource I'm using is "Taking Charge of Your Fertility" by Toni Weschler - it's fantastic!
I've been looking into an IUD. Most doctors will not put one in unless you have had a child vaginally. I would totally look into it though, as it is an potion.
Great Question!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Although I haven't looked into it much yet, a friend of mine told me that she has been using neem seed oil (not just neem oil) internally and that she has been having otherwise unprotected sex with her long term boyfriend for years without a single oops.
Condoms ARE wack:))
Vanessa, you're too funny:)))) Thank you, I'm gonna look into the oil:))
I also found this mini ovulation microscope, it tests saliva in the morning (not urine) to tell you if you're ovulating, originally made for those trying to conceive:))) It's called "maybe MOM". I haven't bought it yet, but I'm going to.. I think it's about $50... way cheaper than a 4 year supply of those ecobaby cotton diapers....

FOUR YEARS!!! ????? try 2.5!!! Oh, maybe my children were exceptionall.. HEee hee..... I feel so silly tonight, don't mind me.... :) Still, much cheaper, I must admit, although, they are really really cute..... cuter than an ovuloscope!! I have one of those too, its just that, if you find out from it that you ARE ovulating, then, well, you really should abstain!! Or, you get the other kind of cutie!! I think its easier to abstain if you really really know you aren't ready.

I found there's a hell of a lot of improvement on sanitational smell when diet is very clean. i personally can now smell my own body, and it's pleasent. I think the bottom line is that we're meant to smell to an extent on sexual terms, to attract ...
