Natural Family Planning (NFP)
taught by Liz MusichThere are many methods of Natural Family Planning. All methods have same objective—to determine times of fertility and infertility in a woman’s cycle but different methods track different biomarkers to do so. I teach the Creighton Model FertilityCare System or Creighton for short. NFP is not just for couples though, any woman anywhere in her reproductive life can track her cycle and learn the language of her body.One of the advantages of Creighton is that it has a medical component called NaProTechnology. Anything that comes up in charting that could indicate hormonal imbalances, ovulatory dysfunction, luteal phase defects and many others can be treated in a wholistic and restorative way through doctors trained in NaProTechnology.I teach Creighton at Holy Family Catholic Clinic in West Linn.Front desk 503-994-4353
