Whether you are single or married, Fertility Awareness can help with all elements of a woman’s reproductive health.
Get in touch with a practitioner or teacher to discuss any questions you may have or to begin charting.
The Marquette Method uses a fertility monitor device combined with an algorithm to help women interpret biological signs of fertility. These fertility signs are seen in biomarkers like reproductive hormones found in urine, changes in cervical mucus, and fluctuations in basal body temperatures. Marquette teaches women how to track and interpret these biomarkers to identify their fertile window and treat health issues.
Because Marquette relies on a fertility monitor device to interpret biomarkers, it is often favored by women postpartum as interpreting the results can be clearer than observing biomarkers which can be impacted by changing hormones during and after pregnancy.
Creighton and the women’s health science of NaProTECHNOLOGY allows a woman to know her cycles and use this information for the maintenance of her health. Creighton relies upon the standardized observation and charting of biological markers that are essential to a woman’s health and fertility. These biomarkers tell a woman when she is naturally fertile and infertile and help identify abnormalities in a woman’s health.
Creighton is a mucus-only method; this means a woman charts her cycle by observing daily changes in her cervical mucus and records this information in a standardized method. This makes Creighton a simple yet highly effective method of fertility awareness.
The Symptothermal Method (STM) is an effective, co-operative, scientifically-based and inexpensive method of fertility awareness.
Using the Symptothermal method, a woman observes her cervical mucus, basal body temperature, and cervical position to chart her cycle. Incorporating multiple signs of fertility makes the Symptothermal method one of the most trustworthy fertility awareness methods.
Each method is very effective if you learn from an accredited instructor, receive regular follow-up as you are learning, and follow the guidelines of the method.
