With the Supreme Court decision on whether or not to overturn Roe v. Wade looming, and more and more women becoming aware of the serious negative consequences for birth control on health and fertility, many are left wondering, but how can I avoid pregnancy?!
Enter- The Fertility Awareness Method. This is a completely hormone-free method of birth control that has no side effects AND helps you to actually LEARN about your body. It is backed by scientific research studies demonstrating it is 99.4% effective at preventing unwanted pregnancy with typical use- that's more than the Pill, which is 93%!
So if you're thinking about transitioning off your medical birth control method, or desiring to become more in tune with your body, tune in as Womb Cycle Guide and Fertility Awareness Method Educator Lindsay Sara breaks down all things FAM with us.
PLEASE NOTE: This conversation does not substitute for working 1-1 with a certified Fertility Awareness Educator. Please do not attempt to use this as a birth control method without proper training.
