The Fertility Matters TM Method for natural women's health during premenopause 
When a girl gets her first period, she is called a woman.  So what is a woman who gets her last period? Super woman!  If you are over 40, and practicing Natural Family Planning, whether to become pregnant or to postpone pregnancy, you likely have questions.  Just as the years after your first period were confusing, fraught with new bodily sensations and strong emotions, the time before menopause can also be confusing, fraught with new bodily sensations, and strong feelings.  Relax!  This program is just for you.
 
The Fertility MattersTM Method Premenopause Program
The Premenopause Program is open to couples who wish to postpone pregnancy.  (If you desire to achieve pregnancy, we recommend that you sign up for the Achieving Pregnancy program.)  It is also open to women who desire natural women's health during premenopause.  This program is for you if:
  • you are a woman who is age 40 or over
  • you want to postpone pregnancy completely naturally with no drugs, devices, risks or side effects
  • you want a highly effective method to prevent pregnancy
  • you want a method that is simple to understand and use
  • you would like to reap the benefits of natural fertility support for the sake of your general health
  • you want to use a Natural Family Planning method that has marital strengthening tools included as part of the course
  • you want to know what to expect from your fertility as you near menopause
  • you desire to ease your passage through premenopause naturally
  • you would like guidance on how to use the gift of fertility during premenopause---a time that is usually more difficult than earlier in your childbearing years

 

"Thank you very much for going over our chart for us and giving such great feedback.  You are both great & we really enjoy the class so far.  Hopefully we will become such experts as you are!"---thank you card from K. & T.V., prior NFP class participants
