Still ovulating with the pill?

[returnofpiper.livejournal.com]

My body refuses to cycle with the pill. I'm worried I'm still ovulating. I know that's probably not possible, but my body goes through all the signs, cervical fluids, ovarian pain, etc. I've been checked out, I'm healthy. My doc says my body will regulate to the pill. It's been 6 months, and I'm curious. I'm thinking of using the FAM method to see what I come up with, charting temps, fluids, etc., because I think that might tell me if I'm ovulating, and if so, when. Am I completely crazy here? But if my body refuses to cycle with the pill, and it turns out it's not always working, I'm not going to screw up my body taking it anymore.

I did successfully for about six months, but I'm just not responsible enough to do it fearlessly right now! I can't manage to wake up early & take my basal temp! (currently I just use condoms, since I'm not comfortable w/ hormonal birth control at all)

But there are lots and lots of women who're successfully using FAM on the fertility awareness (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/fertilityawareness/) yahoo group.. And the moderator has a very informative website here (http://www.sisterzeus.com).

Thanks for the info, and the link to the yahoo group...looks good. It builds my confidence in the method to hear about people who use it successfully.
