As per my knowledge it is under trial so currently we can’t advice you.
When considering natural birth control methods, there are a few options that interconnect with the principles of Ayurveda and could be available in your local area. It is important to recognize that natural methods may not be as effective as conventional contraceptives, so careful attention to detail is essential.
First, the method known as the Fertility Awareness Method (FAM) involves observing signs of fertility and refraining from intercourse during the fertile period of your cycle. This requires tracking your menstrual cycle, keeping an eye on changes in basal body temperature, and observing cervical mucus. Although this approach demands some dedication, it can be effective when practiced meticulously.
Next, herbal options rooted in Ayurveda include neem, also known as Azadirachta indica, traditionally used for its contraceptive properties. Neem oil, applied vaginally, might interfere with sperm mobility, but precise dosage and application details should be explored with a local Ayurvedic practitioner to ensure its appropriate and effective use.
Another option: Shatavari (Asparagus racemosus) is often recommended for balancing female hormones, which may help with overall reproductive health, although it does not directly prevent conception.
Furthermore, pomegranate seed extract is another traditional remedy believed to have contraceptive effects, but I would urge consulting a healthcare provider or an Ayurvedic expert to further understand its safety and recommendable use.
I’d strongly advise visiting a local Ayurvedic doctor who can provide guidance personalized to your constitution (prakriti) and help monitor the effects of these methods carefully. You can also consider using barrier methods such as condoms in combination with these to increase effectiveness. Remember that natural contraception methods require dedication and should be tailored to your unique health needs and lifestyle, ensuring a sound balance of your doshas and excellent overall reproductive health.
