A lot of couples have sex nearly everyday. Now maybe your married and bored with sex, but don't make it sound like having sex everyday is that unusual.

I'm a girl.

First of all to be remotely accurate at this Keep track of the first day of your menstrual cycle for eight months to a year The time between the start of each new period is the length of your menstrual cycle for that month.

Then to get a general "unsafe" time. subtract 18 from the length of your shortest cycle For example, if your shortest cycle was 26 days, the first 'unsafe day' of your period would be (26-18 = 8) eight days after your period starts. Then subtract 11 from the length of your longest cycle For example, if your longest cycle was 30 days, the last 'unsafe day' of your period would be (30-11 = 19) 19 days after your period starts

So to not get pregnant no sex 8 days after your period starts to 19 days after it starts.

And a Basal Thermometer needs to be used first thing in the AM before you even get out of bed. You will need to track your temps every day for a few months. Your lowest temp is your ovulation day. then you have to do egg/ sperm life cycle math.

And none of this is close to being 100% Accurate.

Birthcontrol FTW

He is actually quite correct really. Barring actual fertility issues it all boils down to making sure there are plenty of sperm floating around every day for about a month.

You really don't need to do it everyday, every other is quite good enough -- and likely could get away with every 3rd day. The big key here is that having sex doesn't always have to be a long involved process; often more enjoyable for both when it is, but in this case we are discussing the utilitarian aspects of it.

By the way, if she can lay down for a bit after the sex you increase your effectiveness.

I think they are on clearance at Walgreens for less than 10 bucks. Its about the size of a lipstick tube. It has a lens, a slide, and an LED light. Just clean the slide before each use. It should last a fricken long time....I supposed until the battery runs out.

Dudes, I think we are missing something here.

The fertile period is also when the female is in heat. At least for the girl I know, she becomes insatiable and all she can think about is sex for those few days. So you want to avoid this time and instead make the secks when she isn't as horny?

Sounds like a quick way to make her unenthusiastic about sex [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Also I think it's pretty obvious to the girl when she is fertile. Human females having hidden estrus cycles is an evolved trait, having various uses. This is unlike anestri, which is a common Scrabble bingo word.

If you mix the rhythm method with coitus interruptus (lol) you should be in the clear. If you are looking into these methods for religious reasons though, be careful that you don't go out like Onan did [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

This is not good advice. Please review your high school health class materials.
