Liberating...

well annie, i'm off the pill. my doctor took me off, but i am secretly thrilled. lol
i hate what it does to my body. so, i will be using another method...condom (and doctor said to use foam)

 

yeah, but do any of them guarantee that I will be child free??? the pill is the safest of the lot, but I still feel I'm damaging my body. My mum was using a IUD when I was conceived, so not even trying. Condoms are just too uncomfortable, the female condom sounds too much of a hassle, don't get me started with the diaphragm, rythm method is completely out of the question as my period can't get any crazier...so I'm stuck with the pill.

 

there are new IUD's the marena coil, is more reliable than the pill, and the best bit is that your periods diminish or disappear too, I had one for 5 years and it was bloody marvelous!

 

Fertility awareness isn't effected by how erratic your period may be, it's competely different than the rhythm method (which is totally non-effective). FAM is as effective as birth control pills, and obvisiouly doesn't involve hormones or anything at all in your body. During your fertile period, you can use a cervical cap and spermicide (which can be aloe vera and lemon juice.. sperm is surprisingly easy to kill), or use condoms. But FAM is nice because you will know when you will be ovulating, when you've ovulate and when you'll get your period. And unlike the rhythm method, it doesn't matter if one cycle is 40 days long and the next 28.

I get really disturbed when people say they have "no" choice, because FAM works for basically everyone.
