Good reply. It was explained to me like this; Altering your body to prevent conception is tantamount to telling God that he got it wrong and you have to fix it.

Thats what I’ve been telling my wife when explaining why my daughter doesn’t need braces.

Then is it permissable for me to alter my body to help conception, or is that telling God He got that wrong too?

Which parts of my system am I allowed to change from the original operating condition?

With that logic, wearing clothes is also altering your body. So we must be telling God that he got it wrong when he made us naked.

Might a person make the same argument about antibiotics? I realize that this may be apples and oranges here, but I can certainly see where the argument could be made.

I'm just curious (not arguing); but, in your opinion, does this to apply to all forms of body altering or only to prevent conception?
