| Contraceptive Advice from Shelley
Have you heard about the couple who were having difficulty with contraception and visited their Doctor to explain their
problems?
Patient to Doctor:
We need your help Doctor with contraception, you have suggested various ways and they don't seem to suit us at all.
First you advised us to use the "rhythm method" so we tried the Tango, Rumba and Cha Cha, but I ruptured myself performing
the latter.
When we were living with my mother-in-law you suggested using the safe period, but we had to wait three weeks for a safe
period when the house was empty!
We tried the coil, but after several attemps we found that it was a right hand screw and my wife was definitely a left
hand screw.
We tried the Dutch Cap, but that was no help either. You gave my wife the largest size available but it was still too
tight to fit her head and gave her awful headaches.
We tried the pill, but this kept falling out! Then we realised we were doing it wrong and then placed it between
her knees, this worked, but it did prevent me getting near to my wife at all!
Oral was suggested, but frankly I don't see that talking about it is a satisfactory substitute.
In desperation we finally tried an Old Wives Tale of turning upside down afterwards and this would prevent pregnancy.
My wife did try this, but after blacking both her eyes she became so exhausted we decidd never to try this again!
Please Doctor can you tell us any other way?
