Bloody men should damn well use condoms.

"I now have a daughter and I feel sad about her future.
"Why do women and girls have to bear the responsibility of not getting pregnant.
"Immediately after giving birth you are asked what kind of contraception do you want.
"Luckily my husband is fine with condoms... and now I use a fertility app to just track my period but I don't rely on it."
For people interested in fertility tracker apps, there are some things to consider:
There are lots of apps but only one licensed fertility app for contraceptive use, external in the UK
Period trackers are not the same and have not been designed to predict when you ovulate or might be fertile
If your menstrual cycles are not the same length every month the days of your cycle when you are fertile might change
If you have a very irregular cycle then apps may find it more difficult to predict your fertility
You must follow the app instructions correctly for it to be as reliable as possible
If you are monitoring body temperature then how you do it is important
Dr Baraitser explained: "After ovulation your temperature goes up - but by a very small amount.
"To pick up a difference this small, you have to measure your temperature whenever the app tells you to, often daily, and you need to do this before you have got out of bed in the morning and before you have eaten or have had anything to drink. If you have a busy life, if you work nights, if you have young children this may be hard to do."
