Answers:
There are lots of alternatives to being on a hormonal birth control!. If you're married or in a permanent relationship, a combination of the rhythm method and good ol' oral sex and toys can keep you pregnancy free, its a method I subscribe to personally and haven't gotten pregnant in the last 3!.5 years!.

If you are having sex with more than one partner, such as on the dating scene, I would use condoms alone, and refuse to be with a man who expects you to provide the protection!. If you must have a backup to your condom, try the Today Sponge!. It has the same spermicide as a condom and would be a great backup if your condom were to break!.

You can stop taking your hormonal birth control any time you choose, you aren't obligated to take the placebo pills unless you need to remind yourself to take a daily pill!. If you choose to stop taking them, your hormones should level out to the balance they were before you were taking the pills!.

You can also keep taking the pills as your doctor prescribed!. Usually it takes a few months for your body to balance itself out to the new hormone levels!. Once your body figures out what's going on, your libido will return!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

If I were you I would try the pill a little bit longer!. Your body may just be adjusting to the pill!. I think it is a great idea that you use condoms no matter what!. i would suggest if you really want to kill the pill then just use condoms!. You can also use the condoms and contraceptive film that you can pretty much buy at any store that they sell condoms if you want to be extra careful, that wouldn't raise your estrogen levels and it would help even more to not get pregnant!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
