I've read elsewhere that BCP sway pink but I've never read any studies to back it up or know the exact reason why, is it the progesterone or estrogen? I'm just now getting off the shot (horrendous) and considered the rhythm method to avoid pregnancy but since I just had my baby in April this year I'm nervous I will be way out of whack and end up pregnant. So I decided I'm going back on the pill, which I hate! Any pill brand (contents) in particular better over another? Anyone know if BCPs sway pink for sure or not? Thanks

The story is that BCP sways pink (by raising progesterone) but I have seen plenty of opposites!!!

You might want to look into the Natural Family Planning method, outlined in the book, "Taking Charge of Your Fertility" by Toni Weschler...it's NOT rhythm and is really quite reliable (and will also help your sway). You can find it here: http://www.tcoyf.com/
