Alternative Birth Control?!
Question: Alternative Birth Control!?
I have hormone problems and I DO NOT want to gain weight either so I refuse refuse refuse to get on birth control and put fake hormones in my body!. I do not want to use a nuva ring that releases hormones either!. Are there any other kinds of birth control that I can use that are very successful!? I'm getting married in a month and am not sexually active until then!. We don't want to have kids for 5-7 years so I'd like to know what else we can use besides condoms!. Thanks !Www@Answer-Health@Com

Well it's a little close to when you are getting married - there is a method called "Fertility Awareness Method" (FAM, also known as NFP - Natural Family Planning)!. It is not fail proof - but if your cycles are consistent, and you take the time to really understand your body - this method is pretty effective!. If you don't have consistent cycles (ie if you skip a lot - it can be a lot harder to judge when you are fertile and when you are not!. Thus making it more possible to get pregnant!.)
In short - you understand your body, when you are fertile, understanding how long you need to abstain (or use barriers)!.!.!. and when you are safe!. This information is also helpful when you decide you do want kids!.
Taking Charge of Your Fertility is a very informative book!. It also talks through some of the birth control stuff, and what they do to you!. And takes a very healthy and natural approach to avoiding pregnancy!. It also really helps you understand YOU - each woman is different!. So you can read your body and know what is going on and when you are safe!.
Also - there are diaphragms, and of course condoms!. I believe you have to get fitted for a diaphragm by a Dr!. I have never looked into those myself!.

If they are fake hormones, how will that effect your own natural hormones!? Are your female hormones to low or to high!. Either way there are medicines to take care of the hormones, whichever way they are!. Birth Control pills are the best solution but if you are afraid to take them, then the only other thing is your hubby using condoms!. They take so much away from the act!. There are only certain times of the month that you can become pregnant, and if you know that exact time, anything before it a good deuce immediately following should take care of things for you!. Lay off the sex during that period when the eggs are fertile!. Maybe you need to look further into birth control devices to see the latest and best types and what they contain!. Wishing you the very best young lady and good luck to you and your future husband!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
You can use the copper IUD (Intrauterine Contraceptive Device)!. It is a flexible piece of plastic covered with copper wire that is inserted into the uterus!. There is an IUD called Mirena but it has hormones!. Ask your clinic about the copper IUD!. It has a 97% success rate!. You can leave the copper IUD in place for 2!.5 years!.
