As women, we are presented with many different options for birth control but rarely do they mention the natural methods of birth control available. There are many side effects to being on hormonal birth control and if you’re trying to avoid them all, you came to the right place! 

In this blog we will discuss,

  • What is Natural Birth Control?

  • What methods I recommend and why?

  • How To: Start The Sympto-Thermal Method TODAY!

What is Natural Birth Control?

Natural birth control is hormone-free and non-invasive. There are two types of natural birth control methods: The Barrier Method and Fertility Awareness.

  • Fertility Awareness Method Options:

The Sympto-Thermal Method- 99.4% effective with perfect use, practiced by observing and charting two of our bodies’ fertility signs (basal body temperature and cervical fluid) everyday to determine which days will lead to pregnancy and which days will not.

The Fertility monitors listed below use a combination of advanced technology and algorithms to give you the most accurate results. Each company listed that uses their own designed app that is connected through bluetooth which allows you to confidently track your cycle and fertility. If listed with wearable device, you will wear the device through the night to get the most reliable results but if a thermometer is being used you will manually take your temperature first thing when you wake up.

Daysy Fertility Monitor- 99.4% effectiveness with perfect use, uses thermometer and app

Tempdrop- 99.6% effective with perfect use, wearable arm band, uses app

Femometer Fertility Ring- 99% effective with perfect use, wearable ring, uses app

The Temperature Method-99% effective with perfect use, uses basal body thermometer

Natural Cycles- 98% effective with perfect use, uses basal body thermometer and app

The Billings Method- 98.9% effective with perfect use, uses observation of cervical mucus

  • Barrier Method Options:

-Condoms (98% effective with perfect use)

-Diaphragm (84% effective w perfect use)

What methods do I recommend and why?

The “easiest” methods are the monitors that do the tracking for you like Daysy Fertility Monitor, Tempdrop and Natural Cycles. They are a little more on the expensive side but definitely worth the investment. They are all over 98% effective with perfect use.

The “most effective” methods have a high percentage that's effective with perfect use. Meaning if the directions are followed 100% correct, the method will have that percentage of effective rate. 

Each option provides you with the ability to be hormone free and non-invasive. Your decision will rely on what method is easiest for you to learn and stay consistent with. 

What method do I use and why?

I use the Sympto-Thermal Method because it has one of the highest percentage rate of effectiveness. I also started out by using this method because it would help me learn to create a routine that will allow me to be in the present moment and become very self aware. 

I grew a deep understanding of the method and it gave me such great insight on the questions I’ve been asking about my health. I was able to observe my basal body temperature and cervical mucus and actively chart every morning and throughout the day. 

I always had irregular periods and every side-effect you can imagine. The Sympto-Thermal Method instilled in me a routine and my period became regular for the first time in my life. I began to have clarity on why I was feeling a certain way and was able to make intentional changes to help replenish my body in the right way-at the right time. 

How To: Start The Sympto-Thermal Method TODAY!

The Sympto-Thermal Method is a great option for anyone not financially ready to make an investment on a fertility monitor. This method requires a basic basal body thermometer, knowledge on how to observe your fertility signs and to chart your results consistently.

Below I have provided an easy to follow guide for the Sympto-Thermal Method. Start living your life naturally and hormone free!

I knew I had to share how easily my life changed just by making the decision to stop hormonal birth control. I go more into depth about my decision on my blog, “How To: Stop Taking Hormonal Birth Control”.

If you’re interested in losing all the side effects that come with hormonal birth control and you want to be able to follow your natural cycle, choosing any method of natural birth control will change your life. The method you choose depends on what fits most with your lifestyle.

In my resource library I have all the methods listed and what “supplies” are included. The prices range so whatever your budget, there’s a method for everyone. I personally started with a basic basal body thermometer to gain knowledge over the system but any other method listed is just as effective.
