    have you thought about the free FF? it's nice and easy. I love the VIP FF but the free one works great too.

    yeah i do both.. but i prefer to chart on paper...  i feel that i dont get wishywashy about what the computer is saying it should be or filling in for me ... i like that i can do it and it is what it is... who knows.. either way i do both :)

    i think doctors are so quick to put people on pills.. that they never even needed.. IMO i think thats what BCPs are but thats IMO .  I am happy that you feel better... my sister thinks im crazy for telling her to get off them.. i think she would feel better with out them....... she has been on them since 16 and when your that age its like a lifestyle type thing almost i think she would feel weird with out it

    i was 16 too. let me tell you though, it was SO easy to make the choice to get off. i was having troubles with them for the last 3-4 years. DH wasn't ready for me to go off them. then in oct, right before our anni. he told me to stop them if i wanted. i stopped the very next day, didn't even finish out the pack (i had 1 1/2 more weeks of active pills).

    now we aren't ttc, but not avoiding either. we are just letting things happen as they will. i just wanted to chart for myself. i didn't want to be a crazy lady poas every 5 seconds, lol.
