Question
Hi,
I was wondering how effective would a diaphragm be combined with the pill, and also would it be really unlikely to have a breakthrough ovulation during the placebo week while taking the pill?

Answer
Hi Katie,

I am not a medical professional so cannot advise you about the breakthrough ovulation. However, I believe that the diaphragm combined with the pill would be more effective than either by itself. However, I feel that any kind of hormonal birth control method could be harmful to your health and natural cycle. I don't recommend hormonal birth control methods. Please email me at CHERYL51@aol.com and we can talk more by email.

Sincerely,
Diane Cheryl
