Natural Relief for Painful and Confusing Cycles 
Painful menstrual cycles are dreadful.  And trying to practice Natural Family Planning or the Fertility Awareness Method when your cycles are confusing or irregular can be frustrating and discouraging.  The Fertility MattersTM Method may be the answer for you.

 
The Natural Women's Health Fertility MattersTM Program

The Natural Women's Health Fertility Matters Method Program gives you personalized, confidential counseling in using natural means for improving your health as a means to relief from confusing fertility or painful menstrual cycles.  This program is for you if:
  • you hope to improve painful menstrual cycles
  • you hope to make your cycle lengths more regular
  • postponing pregnancy or achieving pregnancy are not important goals for you (if they are, we recommend that you register for another program)
  • this program is geared for women (single or married)
  • you are under age 40 (if you are 40 years or over, we suggest that you register for the Premenopause program)

     

    You should notice improvements within 3-6 cycles of fertility counseling.  If you do not notice any improvements after 6-9 months of fertility counseling, your instructor will provide referrals to qualified medical professionals who understand Natural Family Planning and can provide further medical assistance.  This course is not intended to diagnose or treat illnesses, but to provide information that you can use to naturally strengthen your fertility.

 

If you are married, we recommend that your husband plan to attend the first, and at least some others of the counseling sessions, as changes usually require a "team effort".

 

"Thank you for being so generous with your time & for your desire to teach NFP... I appreciate your time on the phone this week, Christelle.  I've got a doctor's appointment..& will let you know how it goes.  Thanks & God Bless!"---prior NFP class graduate.  This client's charts showed signs of PCOS during the course and Christelle encouraged the client to see an NFP-knowledgeable doctor.  She was diagnosed with PCOS and was able to receive medical treatment.
