birth control

semi-random question - I'm posting here b/c this is a busy board and I'm not sure where to post...thought some old timers here might help me out...

In the overall quest for health including MC, change in diet, etc.....I'm reading more things such as removing amalgams, not taking drugs. I understand the point it not creating more toxins for the body. So here's a question, what is a happy alternative to birth control that is reliable other then the pill and yucky yucky condoms? (I'm married, I should never have to use those again.) The pill is my current method although I'm off it while my husband is away and in my quest for health kinda hate to start it again but DON'T want to risk pregnancy since I don't plan on having kids! Suggestions, please?
