Just for reference, I use the rhythm method. I am just curious as to what the statistics are.What are the chances of getting pregnant while using birth control ineffectively as to no protection at all?
Good Luck..Here is what Family Planning says about that. Nothing about your % or anything though. It isn't real reliable. Natural Family Planning or NFP is a method in which a woman and clinician study her patterns of menstruation and ovulation to determine the best times to conceive or avoid pregnancy. NFP is best learned by utilizing the sympto-thermal method. This means that a woman must be comfortable in monitoring her body's signs that signal fertility. Checking the position of the cervix daily as well as vaginal mucus is a part of NFP. Checking Basal Body Temperature (BBT) daily before getting up out of bed is also a part of NFP. This method is easy to learn but is best reviewed with a clinician to help determine fertility patterns. Resources for this method can be found at Planned Parenthood centers in the United States by calling 1-800-230-PLAN. The following links provide additional information:
