Ortho tri cyclen is the best form because not only do you not get pregnant but you have clear skin also. ;)

Better to spend a bit of money than risk AIDS and STDs.

ur wrong there. in between having kids.....if a woman breast feeds ...thats a natural form of contraception....so women should definately breast feed.....it has loads of benefits.....including losing all the weight u have put on etc.....

but how true is this? I mean how realiable? I heard a breast feeding woman cant get pregnant cuz its a natural contraceptive. can anyone comment on this ?

a woman who is breast feeding.. can get pregnant!.......but after getting pregnant can they breast feed as well?..that part i dont know!!

wow, I finally found some1 who’s actually read this book. we had to read it for GCSE English Lit…and watch the film too. anyone else I mention this book to they havent heard of it. Learnado’s in the film right? have u seen it? there’s 2 differnt versions.

I’ve read it too – It’s beautiful and tragic. Very difficult to read Hardy in general, you’re right Maddy. But it is a good book. I haven’t seen the film tho – any good?

Re: Desis/Sex/Contraception

Impulse – As an educated woman studying pharmacy you should know that breastfeeding IS NOT a form of contraception. It’s the other way around, if you get pregnant, you will stop being able to breastfeed.

Some ignorant aunties told my mother the same thing.
Which is why I have a younger brother who is barely a year younger than I. :halo:

You also should know that there are a variety of different chemicals that fall under the category of “the pill.” Different hormone and chemical combinations that lead to different side effects. Pharmacists and Chemists are constantly developing new types in order to develop birth control pills that are more efficient, effective, inexpensive, etc. As Sara mentioned, though you are a pharmacy student, you still seem unaware of a lot of the basics regarding reproductive and medical health. Please be careful before giving out advice.
