Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The calendar method of conception control is based on the number of days in each cycle,counting from the first day of menses.The fertile period is determined after the lengths of menstrual cycles have been accurately recorded for 6 months.Weight gain or loss may be partly related to hormonal fluctuations,but it has no bearing on use of the calendar method.Integumentary changes may be related to hormonal changes,but they are not indicators for use of the calendar method.Exploring previous experiences with conception control may demonstrate patient understanding and compliancy,but it is not the most important aspect to assess for discussion of the calendar method.
