How Effective is Fertility Awareness Method?

Fertility Awareness Method is absolutely the best way to avoid unwanted pregnancy, and it's also a great tool to use when you are ready to become pregnant at the best possible time for you and your partner. According to the book Healing Our Children, "FAM works by eliminating unprotected intercourse during fertile times, and adding a little extra room before and after the possibly fertile times. In safely practicing the guidelines, in a typical month you have about twenty days of possible unprotected sex, and generally 9-12 days of abstinence or use of a barrier method."

The Fertility Awareness Method essentially tracks a woman's signs of fertility so that the couple can avoid pregnancy by avoiding unprotected intercourse during the fertile phase or achieve pregnancy by having unprotected intercourse during the fertile phase. When compared with using condoms for intercourse on a regular basis, using the pill, or using an IUD, FAM is very successful.

For instance, condoms have a 3% failure rate when used correctly. The pill has less than a .5% failure rate, and the IUD has a less than 2% failure rate when used correctly. The FAM method, when used correctly, has a 2% or less failure rate.

The problem with FAM is that you absolutely can't break the rules, or you'll have a much higher failure rate. According to the author of Healing Our Children, "there is no room for error. If you make a mistake, or cheat with the rules, the odds of a pregnancy resulting are very high." When you play around with the rules, the failure rate of FAM is about 10-15% in a year.

However, by following the rules full time, you can enjoy unprotected intercourse during most of the month, stay off of hormonal birth control, and still not get pregnant until you are ready to do so. This is especially helpful if you are trying to prepare your body for pregnancy with a special pregnancy diet and exercise program leading up to the big event of conception!
