Hello everyone!
This is my first post, and it does involve a question about trying to get pregnant and using a device to help with that. I am a new Catholic (just confirmed a little over a year ago) so bear with me if the answer to this is obvious.
My husband and I have been trying to get pregnant for 2 years. I have Endometriosis as well as a tilted uterus, and so far we have been unsuccessful. I recently ordered what’s called a “diva cup” (otherwise known as a period cup) to use for my menstral cycles when I found out that women use the diva cup to help them get pregnant. I’m about to describe how the cup is used so if this might offend you please don’t read it All they do is after intercourse, they put the cup inside of them to keep the semen up close to the cervix (rather than coming out).
My question is this ok for a Catholic to do? I thought it might be, because we would still have sex in a way that’s open to life, but the cup would just make the sperm have more time to get to where they need to go. Any advise for this is helpful!
