Coco, I'm intrigued by the device you are using. Does it only measure when you're ovulating, or up to seven days beforehand? Because you can get pregnant up to seven days before ovulation, as sperm are able to survive in the environment of the female reproductive organs in this time.
That would be marvellous if it did measure up to a week beforehand!

it measures as soon as your biosalts begin to change, triggering ovulation which takes about 4 days. so you know 4 days prior to ovulation when it will occur. it's very rare that sperm live as long as 7 days though, 4 is the usual measure. it's certainly not fail-safe, i don't know of any birth control that is though. and while it's helpful to know your cycle so that you can weigh the risks at specific times of the month, the body can spontantiously begin to ovulate at any time so knowing your cycle is only effective so long as that hasn't occurred.

Wow very cool. Thanks for sharing :) I'll have to research this. After I get married and have kids I want to implement something far more natural. I love the Fertility Awareness Method, but this sounds intriguing as well! Thanks again!

This is what I use. Its gotta be the pricier one out there but it works and has other great things about it! It's the most reliable, easy to use, natural birth control. 99.3% effective. Clinically studied. Helps prevent estrogen dominance which leads to infertility, pms, cancer & miscarriage. Widely used in Europe to rave reviews. Over 90% of first time users retain this method. Lasts about 10+ years!!!!

as previously said, I think that religion does not belong here unless it is the religion of healing ourselves through raw food
as for more natural ways of birth control I can recommend Persona, this little machine measures the hormone levels in your urine and depending on that you need additional measures as condoms etc or nothing. I have used it now for 10 years and think it is great, both of my children were wantingly concieved that way. and these days the best birth control is having children
