Comparing 505 middle-class American women trained in the ovulation method of NFP with large populations of women from two government-funded surveys, the study showed that divorces among NFP users were also much less common than among Catholic women generally.

A Baptist, she was not troubled with the moral aspects of birth control, but she was unhappy with the physical effects.

Suddenly, Moses said, he came to terms with the "profundity of the traditional Christian/Catholic doctrine on contraception." He and his whole family eventually entered the Catholic Church.

Birth control is a pain, no matter what it is.

It takes discipline to do what is called NFP here, but it isn’t hard, especially with Excel and ear thermometers etc...

Our family used NFP. We have two children, whose arrival was planned, and no “surprises”. (Not that surprises would have been a problem).

I am really happy not to have used hormonal birth control.
