Has Anyone Tryed the Crystal Bead Method? Posted: 05-24-05 20:12pm
You track your cycle with a ring on a
necklace of beads and it clearly shows you
when to use protection and when you don't
need protection. Only for those who are
regular. Sound great compared to the cost
of the patch i'm on and how I feel.

My mom used the calendar method for 10
years after my birth... Now I have a
little brother 10 years younger, but it
did work for alll that time. Its about
chances I guess. And she told me that her
gino told her sperm in some freak cases
can live up to 16 days inside you
!?!?!??!?!?!??!! Please tellll me this is
not true and she just told me that to
scare me away from sex :s!

Yeah, my mom used the cycle method too,
just after she got married. She
conceived my brother five months later ;-)
it's not a very reliable method of birth
control at all. If you would prefer
non-hormonal birth control, you would
probably be better off using a fertility
monitor or taking your temperature each
morning to determine if you're nearing
ovulation/ fertile, which would signify
that you should not have sex. My mom did
that after giving birth to my brother and
it worked perfectly for 6 years, until
they had me (totally planned), and then
for another 5 years until my dad had a
vasectomy.
