To tell you the truth it is the first time i hear it...
However, concerning medecine, Hippocrate from the isalnd of Kos discovered the cancer, the first ancient hospital is Asklipionin Kos, and he saved people from plague by ordering to burn everything regarding the personal stuff of patients

If you mean lemon juice, it is rather weird unless one has a very specialized fetish.
However, if you mean whole lemons or slices of lemon, there might be some truth to it. Here is a recipe for contraception that might work:
Cut off a nice round slice of lemon. Place it on the inside of the left knee. Hold it tightly in place with the inside of the right knee during (or slightly before as well as during) sex. The tighter you hold, the greater the chances of success.
How's that for an entirely natural contraception method?

I can asure you that it is not right only for ancient but also for... modern greek women.A friend of mine uses this method to avoid getting pregnant. I don't have a personal experience about that (for me it would be very difficult to get pregnant, and I knew it right from the start, hopefully I have a daughter)...

Lemon changes the Ph environment to acidic but is not a certain method of birth control and no one should follow it.
(esp Greek women with those hot blooded Greek men around them) ;)

Honestly, I've never heard something like that before. I really doubt though.

I have never heard of that but I don't think it's true and it certainly doesn't work...

If by lemmom you mean lemon I seriously doubt that, because it doesn't work and they would have figured it out soon enough.

Ask yourself a simple question. Would I use it on myself?
I wouldn't ....ouch it stings.
