What is the best way to prevent pregnancy on your first night of marriage?
If condoms are used, it seems that it will destroy the romantic atmosphere of the first night of marriage, and it is the groom or the bride who is preparing. I believe that no matter how good the groom is, he will feel bored when he sees the bride taking out the condom.
The most ideal method of first-night contraception is to avoid the day of ovulation. Therefore, it is best for engaged women to measure their basal body temperature. At this time, you can use your basal body temperature to determine the wedding day in advance to avoid ovulation. However, many people decide their wedding date half a year or even a year ago, and it is not easy to predict the ovulation day a year in advance.
However, if menstruation has been regular, you can predict that menstruation will occur at the beginning, middle or end of the month. The ovulation day is about 14 days before the next menstrual period. Therefore, you only need to work backwards to choose a good day at the beginning, middle or end of the month. However, even if a woman has a regular menstrual cycle, it is still not 100% accurate if she wants to use her basal body temperature to determine her first night six months or even a year later. What's more, many places (especially in rural areas) still follow the old custom of deciding the wedding date based on the lunar calendar, which makes it even more difficult to use natural contraception.
If this is the case above, you should choose the wedding date after you decide. That is, one month or one and a half months before this day, start recording the basal body temperature, so that you can roughly predict when the ovulation period will be on the wedding day. If the wedding day or the honeymoon period happens to be 1 week before the scheduled menstruation, that is, 4 to 5 days after the basal body temperature has entered the high temperature period, you don't need to worry about getting pregnant and can enjoy your honeymoon with peace of mind.
If the first night of the wedding is during the ovulation period (5 days before and after the day when the basal body temperature is low) or when the basal body temperature has entered the low temperature period, there is a possibility of pregnancy. Therefore, during your honeymoon, if you don’t want to have a baby too early, you should still find a way to prevent pregnancy. I don’t want to recommend you the contraceptive method of using condoms and intrauterine rings right now. Because if you are not familiar with how to use it, you are likely to fail; besides, taking out these gadgets during the wedding is off-putting just thinking about it.
Oral contraceptives, which are most suitable for newlyweds, can be started one month before marriage and should be continued during the honeymoon. Usually, you start taking it on the 5th day of menstruation, taking 1 pill a day for 20 days, so that you can achieve the purpose of complete contraception. The contraceptive effect of this method can reach 99%, and it can also treat gynecological diseases such as irregular, excessive, and frequent menstruation, dysmenorrhea or premenstrual tension in some women. It really kills two birds with one stone.
