Yikes!! Well, congratulations! We''re talking some pretty individual issues here with regard to birth control methods. Check with your personal physician and get his/her take on this issue. Ziplock bags can help you out here with whatever choice seems right for you both physically and spiritually.

With regards to your montly visit, ziplock bags (loose the boxes)and planning ahead for ample supplies of whatever type you personally prefer. The smaller the better of course, as space is a at premium on sailboats. They can''t be flushed either, so plan for disposal bags you can store till your next port of call.

Best wishes!
