I do not believe using NBE makes you more fertile. But if you are really concerned, I would combine the diaphragm or cap with the condom and not the female and male condoms. Male and female condoms might rub against each other.
The failure rates given for the condom and the pill are based on the Pearl index, which is instances of pregnancy per year per 10,000 couples afaik. 0.5% means 0.5 of couples will get pregnant that year, using an average frequency of 1 time per week for average people.
If you go the pill route, I don't think saw palmetto can be part of your routine. But there are other options, such as the contraceptive gel which can be used with condoms.
