The only sure way is to not have vaginal intercourse. You can also do it on the days when you are sure you do not ovulate and also not a week before that since the sperms can live inside for a week. That means you need to see a doctor to find out exactly when you ovulate and make a schedule and test the urine often since only 12% ovulate on the same day each month.


What does it mean when your new to getting your period and don't get it monthly?

It just means it's irregular or not as frequent as in other women. You don't menstruate until you ovulate, and you don't ovulate until your body is physically able to cope with pregnancy - it takes time for your body to mature enough physically to ovulate on a regular basis. Don't expect regular cycles until adulthood.
