Using fertility awareness as contraception
|
The fertility awareness method (FAM), or natural family planning, means knowing how to identify your fertile days - mainly by taking your waking temperature and doing some basic calculations.
If you want to avoid pregnancy, you use condoms or other precautions for at least nine days a month. If you want to get pregnant you flip your knowledge - and maybe don't bother taking your temperature. It's not rocket science, but it takes more than downloading an app or buying a fancy thermometer. You need to learn some stuff, and record some stuff – like your waking temperature and day one of your period. My goal is to help make that as simple and low stress as possible.
