Is abstinence a hormonal method or barrier method?
An interesting question! (I think??) There is nothing hormonal about abstinence other than abstinence will fuel hormonal urges that much more. In my book a barrier method would be the use of condoms, which prevent or create a barrier so the sperm does not go swimming looking for an egg! Abstinence is just abstaining from sex, there isn't any sexy phrase or psychological term for it - it is what it is!

What is the difference between artificial family planning and natural family planning?
I don't know if there is such a thing as "artificial family planning", but natural family planning is a term used commonly to describe a method of fertility management in which a woman can observe bodily symptoms in order to know when she is fertile and either use that time to avoid unprotected sex if she does not wish to conceive or use that time to have sex if she does wish to conceive. Most commonly natural family planning is the sympto thermal method, which is NOT the rhythm method. It can be as effective as the perfect use rate for hormonal contraceptives if used properly.
Can the birth control pill cause nausea?
yes. It will make you feel nauseous. You would even throw up
Any birth control pill can make you feel sick to your stomach, especially when taking it for the first time. Also, if you miss a pill and take two at a time, you can almost guarantee to feel a little queasy. But don't stop taking it! This will pass once your body adjusts. However, if you have been taking any form of birth control for a month or more, and it still makes you feel sick, you may want to ask your doctor because the hormone levels may be causing it..and there could be something else to try.
Nausea is a common side effect in the first three months of birth control use. For some women, it helps to take the pill after having something in their stomach, or by taking the pill at bedtime. If the side effect is bothersome or last longer than the first three months, contact your health care provider to discuss a change to a pill with a different hormonal profile.
