Birth Control Free

I have decided to stop using birth control. The side effects are just to much for me to handle. I want to feel happy and energetic and that just does not happen while I am on birth control.

In the past I had been on Depo Provera. I had migraines, muscles pains, depression, fatigue, and the list goes on.


Then I tried Mirena: I had migraines, my hair was falling out, I felt almost like I had become diabetic, feeling cold constantly, depression, and more.

After having the hormones detoxed from my body I feel happier and healthier. I have decided to start the Fertility Awareness Method. I have used the method to successfully get pregnant and now I am using the method to avoid pregnancy.

I have read the book Take Charge Of Your Fertility by Toni Weschler. Another great resource is the forum: http://www.ovusoft.com/

The forum follows the book by Toni Weschler. There is a wealth of information contained in the forum, and many supportive people as well, no matter the stage of life.
