“An authentic language of a woman’s health and fertility"

The Creighton Model FertilityCare™ System is a scientifically based method that networks fertility regulation with women’s healthcare. It can be used effectively to avoid pregnancy, achieve pregnancy, or to monitor, maintain and evaluate women’s gynecological health. This unique system of fertility regulation is supported by over 40 years of research that led the way to the new woman’s reproductive health science NaProTECHNOLOGY (natural procreative technology). 

The system relies upon the standardized observation and charting of biological markers. These biomarkers help the client identify the time of fertility, time of infertility in woman’s cycle and abnormalities in a woman’s health.
It is truly the only family planning system which has networked family planning with gynecologic and procreative healthcare and health maintenance.  It works cooperatively with the natural cycle and doesn’t suppress one’s fertility

Basic Facts about the Creighton Model FertilityCare™ System

• The Creighton Model FertilityCare™ System is based on day-to-day observations of the naturally occurring signs and symptoms of the fertile and infertile phases of the menstrual cycle.
• The Creighton Model System takes advantage of the changes associated with ovulation, treating each cycle as unique. It is NOT the Rhythm Method.
• Regular cycles are not necessary to use the Creighton Model FertilityCare™ System​​
• ​​Women ovulate during one 24-hour period in each cycle and the egg lives for only 12 to 24 hours if there is no conception. 
• Women will experience a very definite symptom when they ovulate and for several days before, this is the time when the couple is fertile and pregnancy can occur. A woman is taught how to observe and interpret this biomarker and together the couple is taught how to use the system.
• By observing and tracking this biomarker the couple can determine the beginning and the end of fertility regardless of cycle regularity. 

• A woman, who is breastfeeding, coming off oral contraceptives, in long cycles, or in pre-menopause can use the method with a very high degree of effectiveness.  It was often thought impossible to use a natural method in these reproductive categories.

The Creighton Model FertilityCare System for young girls

If you are wondering if the Creighton Model FertilityCare System can be helpful for your teenager, the answer is YES, it absolutely can help more than you can imagine. Too often the birth control pill is prescribed to treat irregular cycles, painful periods, premenstrual syndrome and ovarian cysts in teens. Yet the pill offers a band-aid approach by temporarily relieving symptoms without treating the underlying condition and reason for the problem. It has also many side effects and can cause additional serious health problems. 

The Creighton Model System is very easy for teens to learn and use; it requires that a girl tracks certain biomarkers whenever she uses the restroom. The signs of fertility and infertility that are observed provide extremely useful information for a teen client, allowing her to know the day of her next menstrual period within a range of a few days! This knowledge of the start of her next period begin can give a teen a sense of empowerment and considerable peace of mind, especially when planning school events, sport activities, or social outings. In addition, the charting allows the FertilityCare™ Practitioner to assess the biomarkers for signs that your daughter may need a referral to a NaProTECHNOLOServing Adolescent GirlsGY® medical consultant. NaPro treatment is very effective for clients with painful periods or heavy bleeding .
It is time to say goodbye to mood swings, irritability, and other symptoms during the phase of the cycle preceding the period.

We encourage the mothers to attend Follow-up sessions with their daughters.
