Not so sure about the statistics of the Rhythm method but I'm certain its failure rate is greater than that.

Contraceptives generally are not safe. Anything that distorts a natural occurence is usually harmful.

I've heard horror stories about depo provera. A good number of women struggle to conceive once they stop using it. Maybe it's good for someone who is done with having children but isn't ready for a hysterectomy.

The withdrawal method is the worst and shouldn't even be considered a method. As una dey shout withdrawal method, I dey think. How common is this method and can it be resppnsible for Nigeria's overpopulation issue? Lol. I don't even want to know the success rate for it. My guess is 58%.

Man, withdrawal method is not easy at all if you're not on drugs. The method is not good enough please because it might fail you.

Withdrawal method sucks, lots of ppl get pregnant from it. Tried it once n was so paranoid that I had 2 go buy the Plan B pill.

But I've been on nuvaring 4 sum years now n its a really great form of contraceptives.

I do carry around atleast 1 condom in my purse just incase I hv a fling or sumtin, I can be protected in case the guy has an std. You kno, a girl always gotta be prepared wink

Straight Abortion: 100% effective

Cons: If you jam quack chemist, you done die.. If the belle don stay pass three months, better start to budget for child dedication.. if police catch you, omo na 21yrs imprisonment be dat..
