Fertile/Non-Fertile days

Ok..I wasn't really sure what board to post this on, but I know I should probably know this by now, but I need to know when in my cycle am I most fertile and when I'm least fertile. It's only because I'm not on birth control and I don't really know whether or not I want to choose to go on it, so the only safe way for me to have sex is with a condom. And even with that I'm still unsure because there's NO WAY that I can get pregnant at this point in my life. So maybe if I still practice safe sex but on my least fertile days, there will be less of a chance of pregnancy? I hope someone knows! Thanks!

Have you ever heard of Natural Family Planning or Fertility Awareness Meathod? It's basically what you're looking for. Try to check out Taking Charge of Your Fertility from the library. Also, there's a great board here on i-Village for it: http://messageboards.ivillage.com/iv-ppnfp They are increadilby helpful and the FAQ's can answer most of your questions. Good luck! I love it now that I've got it figured out.
