Natural Family Planning

 Source Page

 

Natural Family Planning (NFP) is in full accordance with the Church's teaching on birth control. Statistics show that couples practicing NFP have stronger and better marriages. You too can have a better marriage and practice an all natural method of family planning.

NFP is a highly effective, low cost method based on a woman's natural fertility cycle. Couples are taught how to recognize and interpret the normal signs of fertility and how to apply this knowledge to responsible parenthood. NFP is not the old calendar rhythm method, but rather a scientifically based method of fertility awareness. Whereas NFP can be just as effective as the pill (but much safer) in postponing pregnancy, in contrast to the pill, NFP can be used by couples with fertility problems to help them achieve pregnancy. NFP is just as effective for women with irregular cycles and those approaching menopause.

To learn the symptothermal method of NFP you can take a three part class offered by our local certified teaching couple of The Couple to Couple League. Please contact Bob and Sharon Colvin for additional information and to learn when the next class begins. Classes are offered throughout the year.
