Check for secretions
 |
- The woman checks for cervical secretions every afternoon and/or evening, on fingers, underwear, or tissue paper or by sensation in or around the vagina.
- As soon as she notices any secretions of any type, color, or consistency, she considers herself fertile that day and the following day.
|
| Avoid sex or use another method on fertile days |
- The couple avoids vaginal sex or uses condoms or a diaphragm on each day with secretions and on each day following a day with secretions. They can also use withdrawal or spermicides, but these are less effective.
|
| Resume unprotected sex after 2 dry days |
- The couple can have unprotected sex again after the woman has had 2 dry days (days without secretions of any type) in a row.
