Let's talk about sex

I took the financial leap and finally bought a Lady Comp - an all-natural computer based contraceptive - and I'm looooving it.  Goodbye hormones, goodbye condoms, and good riddance. The sad thing is how few women actually know about this completely safe, affordable, easy and effective birth control option (do I sound like an infomercial or what).  Here's the dealio...

How does it work? 
Programmed with over 900,000 cycles already, this self-learning software uses one of the most advanced thermometer sensors to detect that gentle spike in a woman's temperature to identify times of fertility. All you do is wake up in the morning, stick the thermometer in your mouth, and read your results:
Red light = You're going to get knocked up if you have sex
Yellow light = Uncertain/Still Learning
Green light = Get jiggy wit it

Is it effective? 
Condoms: 82% - 98%
Ring: 91% - 99.6%
Pill: 91% - 99.9%
IUD: 97% - 99.9%
Lady Comp:  99.3% 

Why haven't I heard of this before? 
Short answer:  Because the U.S. economy is highly dependent on the pharmecutical industry.
The Lady Comp - and many other devices like it - have been used by women in Europe for over 25 years (my LC is from Germany), so rest assured - this isn't just some hoaky new gimic that appeared over night.

Cost?
Don't be alarmed by initial sticker shock. The Lady Comp is definitely one of the most cost effective methods over a period of 10 years, which is the lifespan of each device.
Condoms: $25/box  x  4/year  x  10 yrs = $1000 (or > depending on how horny you are)
Ring: $15-$80/mo x 10 yrs = $1800-$9600
Pill: $15-$50/mo x 10 yrs = $1800-$6000
IUD: $500-$1000/5 yrs
Lady Comp: $485/10 yrs
