Just had the mirena taken out and definitely don't want to get pregnant.
Dh is going to use condoms but I'm conscious about the 1% failure rate.
Could I use the ovulation tests as a way to know if I'm fertile and then avoid sex during that period.
I have ovulation pains anyway so would know roughly when I was fertile.
Does anyone do this as an extra 'precaution'?
I guess I'm extra worried as we conceived our dcs first time and I really don't want another.
I want to avoid hormone related contraception atm for health reasons so don't really have many other options. Dh doesn't want a vasectomy although that may change when he gets bored of condoms.
