It's giving ✨growth✨Your fallopian tubes are one of the crucial parts of your reproductive system - but how often do you give them any thought? 👀One of the most common questions we get is: When can I start Natural Cycles after being on other birth control methods?⁠
⁠
You can begin using Natural Cycles the day after you stop most hormonal birth control methods ✨⁠
⁠
You can't measure while still using hormonal birth control, as the hormones affect your temperature and cycles. In general, the hormones work to inhibit ovulation and affect your body temperature, making it impossible to combine with Natural Cycles 🌡️Natural Cycles takes sperm survival into account to work effectively at finding your fertile and non-fertile days 🏊⁠
⁠
In all mammals, including humans, male sperm cells play an essential role in reproduction, together with the female egg cell 🤝 A male sperm cell is equipped for swimming, with a streamlined head, body (also called mid-piece), and tail 🤿 Each sperm cell looks a little bit like a tadpole. If sperm is ejaculated into the vagina, it travels through the female reproductive tract, where it may fertilize a female egg cell (the other type of gamete) ✨ Even though there are millions of sperm in each ejaculation, only one single sperm cell can fertilize the egg 🎟️
