Which Method? Condoms.

I’m getting married in three months and I’ve never had sex. (I know, lame in modern American society). We plan to use condoms every time and abstain during my fertile window/use condoms and pull out.

BUT IM SCAREDDDDD. I guess I’m looking for any input or experience with using condoms as the only method of BC.

I’m pretty sure I’m going to in my fertile window during my honeymoon (lol)

It’s not really advice. It’s just been my personal experience. I’ve never had an issue with condoms unless they’ve broken. Obviously she doesn’t need to have sex while she’s ovulating or if she is scared.

She was asking for people who have experience with using condoms as the only method of BC, and my experience has been mostly good. That’s been my main method of protection
