The Advantage of Natural Birth Control
Fertility awareness inevitably leads to natural birth control. There are many couples out there who for one reason or another cannot use hormonal contraceptives, and prefer to combine natural family planning with some non-traditional birth control method. The sympto-thermal method, the ovulation method, the standard days method or the rhythm method are just a few of the natural birth control choices people rely on. Yet, they seem to work in a similar way.
The standard days method
According to this type of natural birth control, the menstrual cycle is divided into three main periods. The menstrual bleeding occurs on day !. Between day 1 and day 8, you are unlikely to get pregnant and you can have sex without birth control. Ovulation occurs between day 9 and day 18, and this is the most fertile interval. You should not have sex, or you should use another birth control method. Natural birth control is once again possible between day 20 and day 32.
The ovulation method
The analysis of the changes in the cervical mucus makes the basis for the ovulation method. Ovulation usually takes place between the 9th and the 18th day of the menstrual cycle, but variations are possible from woman to woman. The fertility tests available in drug stores can help you determine when you ovulate, and thus you can use some extra birth control during that period.
The sympto-thermal method
The sympto-thermal method is both a natural birth control solution as well as an option for couples trying to conceive. It requires a careful monitoring of the changes in the body and it needs several months to reach a conclusion for the observation.
There are no guarantees with natural birth control. There are many unknown factors in the way a woman’s body works during the menstrual cycle, and many unplanned pregnancies appear as a result. If the menstrual pattern is regular, then the efficiency of natural birth control methods is very high, just like that of hormonal birth control. Seek medical advice and see what recommendations you can get. Professional advice makes choices a lot easier, and good information may save you from an unwanted pregnancy!

Many women are suffering from the unwanted side effects of the birth control pill and are searching for reliable alternatives. Raxmedical is the Authorized USA Distributor of a German manufactured fertility monitor which has been marketed internationally since 1987 as a reliable method of birth control and natural family planning. Clinical studies have shown it to be 99.3% reliable in interpreting the cycle accurately. As a personal user and Registered Nurse, I appreciate the value of the Lady-Comp’s ease of use and reliability.
The Lady-Comp is FDA approved as a fertility monitor. It is a sophisticated mini-computer, equipped with a database of over 700,000 cycles for comparative analysis of the daily temperature reading. Any inconsistent or irregular basal body temperatures will be excluded from the calculation of daily fertility. The thermal sensor is very accurate and measures the BBT to the 100th degree in 1 minute. This contributes to the ease of use and compliance of the user. If it is effortless to measure the temperature each day, it is unlikely that a woman will miss readings or discontinue the method. All that’s required is a daily BBT reading and entry of accurate dates of menstruation to offer 99.3% reliability on green light days. Most women will receive between 8-10 red light days in a 28 day cycle. No charting, no calculations, no assessment of cervical mucus.
The Lady-Comp is equipped with an integrated rechargeable battery and a power adaptor for wall plug use. The Lady-Comp is expected to last over 10 years. The Pearly is a similar product but more portable in size and is equipped with a lithium battery, that will require battery replacement every 2-3 years.
