It allows for the first time to integrate family planning with women’s health and it accomplishes this in a way that is completely natural and cooperative with a woman’s menstrual and fertility cycles.

It teaches women a standardised way of observing, describing and interpreting the signs of their fertility each day during routine use of the bathroom. It is a scientifically proven system which uses a prospective and standardised evaluation of the cervical mucus. When routinely charted at the end of every day, the standardised recording of a woman’s vaginal secretions gives an accurate account of her days of fertility and infertility and works as a reliable method of natural fertility regulation regardless of cycle length or cycle irregularity. It is easy to learn and easy to interpret.

When a couple decides to use this system of FertilityCare for their family planning, they are working in harmony with the woman’s cycle and not suppressing her hormones. This holistic approach may be used throughout a women’s reproductive milestones e.g. when wishing to achieve or avoid pregnancy, throughout breastfeeding (total and weaning), post-partum if not breastfeeding, post miscarriage or during pre-menopause (40 years or older).
