Thanks for all the great information, everyone. I will check out that birthcontrol.com website. I thought I knew about all my options. Couple of questions on a few things I'm not clear on - with the Persona method, can I still use natural progesterone cream or DHEA in certain parts of my cycle?

I am seeing my doctor next week after taking the spit-test for hormone levels. She uses very small amounts of natural progesterone (cream, I think) and/or DHEA with very careful testing for levels in women with hormone imbalances. I'm working on a candida problem, right now, which I believe is interfering w/my liver function, thus the hormone imbalance, but meanwhile she says that the tiny amounts of supplemental hormones she uses work on sort of a homeophathic level to nudge your body into producing its own correct amount. Sounds good to me.

Also, I was under the impression that you had to use spermicides with the cervical cap, like with a diaphragm. I was hoping to avoid using the chemical creams. I guess I need to research that further. Is a cap hard to get in and out? Even after 5 years with my diaphragm, I still sometimes have trouble removing it.

Thanks for any info you can provide!
