The Top Reasons You Are Probably Not Using Natural Family Planning
Many women are searching for a non-hormonal method of preventing pregnancy and struggle to find an effective method. It can be frustrating to not find clear answers to your questions about Natural Family Planning. This can leave you unsure of what to do.
You don’t want to deal with side effects of medications but have been given no other viable options. It seems like you are looking for a unicorn by wanting a safe, natural, effective way to prevent pregnancy.
Reasons You Are Not Using Natural Family Planning.
Your Doctor has not told you about it.
The majority of medical schools do not teach natural family planning so most doctors do not feel comfortable talking with their patients about it.
There are only commercials for Birth Control
The pharmaceutical industry is a billion dollar industry that spends millions on marketing on TV, print and social media. Most natural family planning instructors are highly educated but do not have the same resources to advertise.
The CDC chart that hangs in my doctor’s office says it is ineffective.
This chart lumps all methods of fertility awareness and natural family planning together. It lump the old school Rhythm Method with a high failure rate together with the Marquette Method with a low failure rate.
The CDC has changed their website to include modern methods of NFP but not the chart.
My family and friends do not know about it.
Generational word of mouth is a powerful tool. Your mother and grandmother were probably only told about the old school Rhythm Method, so they most likely do not know about the effective modern methods. If you were not told, there is a good chance your sister or friend was not told either.
It is time to stop relying on expensive ways of family planning that come with side effects and multiple risk factors. You do not have to live in the past when you have the knowledge of your cycle and can confidently decide when to have or not have a baby.
I understand the struggle many women have with finding a natural way to achieve or avoid pregnancy. I teach them a highly effective and safe method so they can confidently decide when and if they want to become pregnant. Supported by Scientific Research, the Marquette Method of NFP is 98% effective in preventing pregnancy. Natural Family Planning can be used to avoid or achieve pregnancy.
