3. With the Cervical Mucus Method (Ovulation Method) a woman has to be comfortable and confident with exploring the inside of her vagina. With this natural method, the texture of the mucus is what she’ll need to inspect. The assumption is if a woman’s cervix is dry then she has not released an egg and the sperm can only survive for three days inside of the woman. In the next phase the mucus becomes thick and milky, making it hard for sperm to penetrate, but it is possible. As ovulation grows, the cervical mucus becomes sticky and pulley between fingers. When the mucus becomes wetter and slippery, resembling that of an egg white, sperm can swim freely. This is the optimal time to conceive. If you wish to avoid becoming impregnated, then you should abstain from sex doing this time.

Natural contraceptives aren’t totally reliable in preventing unwanted pregnancy there is still the risk of conceiving. These natural birth control options are definitely  not to be used in preventing the spread of sexually transmitted diseases.
