Sharna Burgess' life update caused quite a stir on Instagram after fans' misread her line of thoughts for a pregnancy announcement. The lengthy post included a photo of her sitting up in bed, with her tousled hair held up in a messy bun.

The dance pro also had her face turned from the camera to look at the thermometer in her hands. She went on to write about her cycle and birth control measures:
"I havent had to be on hormonal birth control for years... I tried the pill, but I experienced mood swings, weight gain…"
The star noted that the side-effect of taking birth control pills also included pain and fatigue, and she switched to Natural Cycles' FDA birth control app. And for her, that was a great decision.
The star added that she got better by learning about her body system and cycle, checking her body temperature, and adding it to the app's algorithm that measures fertility.
Before her relationship with Brian, Burgess was romantically linked with fellow dancer, Paul Kirkland.
Burgess, 35, concluded by recommending the birth control app to fans, letting them know it was suitable for those seeking birth control and those trying to get pregnant.
