Fertility Awareness is being able to identify when you are fertile. This term refers to a a wide category including several different methods Fertility Awareness Based Methods (FABMs) each with their own efficacy and methods. FAM or FABMs can be used to avoid or achieve pregnancy, as well as monitor reproductive health. Some methods including teaching Body Literacy while others rely on calculations, algorithms, or devices. So if someone tells you that they practice or teach Fertility Awareness, this can mean many different things and it may be a good idea to ask for more information on which method they use and if it promotes body literacy.
Body Literacy is a phrase coined by Laura Wershler. To be body literate means that you are able to understand the language of your body, especially so in regards to observing, charting, and interpreting your ovulatory menstrual cycles. The Justisse Method promotes body literacy by relying on individual observations that can vary from one day to the next as well as inviting in introspection about what those changes mean. We never use calculations or make assumptions about one's future fertility, instead we use direct observations.
I have trained at the Justisse International College for Women and teach the Justisse Method (JM) which is created on the foundation of teaching body literacy. This method is highly effective for avoiding pregnancy and 100% effective for achieving pregnancy within 6 months assuming there are no underlying fertility challenges.
Most of my clients chart using paper charts or the Read Your Body App (clients get 3 months free)
Everyone's body functions differently and even our cycles often vary from one to the other. It is helpful to work with a trained instructor to boost your confidence and to have the opportunity to ask questions. Although I believe all women and people who menstruate are able to learn to correctly identify their fertile times, it can be challenging at first, especially without guidance.
Working with an HRHP like myself offers the additional benefits of being able to analyze charts, consider dietary changes and supplementations, observe the impacts of major life events on your chart, and so much more. I have an in-depth knowledge of the menstrual cycle, the endocrine system, and the factors involved. Additionally, I include my unique yogic and energy work background when appropriate to assist my clients. Together we can work towards boosting your wellbeing and achieving your pregnancy-related goals.
JM is highly effective for avoiding pregnancy! Many studies have found similar methods to be from 95% - 99.7% effective.
Did you know that you're only fertile for 6 days each menstrual cycle? With the skills to know when you're fertile and when you're not you can make informed decisions about your sexual practices to avoid pregnancy.
If you want to get pregnant, it really helps to know when you're fertile. You will learn to monitor your cycles to verify peak fertility so that you feel confident to start trying when you're ready and nourish your body to the max in preparation. This gives you all the necessary information to time intercourse and increase your chances of conceiving when you feel ready.
For many people, it can take many months before they start cycling again. Cycles after hormonal contraceptives can be irregular, anovulatory, painful, just spotting, and much more. Additionally, oral contraceptives can cause some serious havoc in the gut microbiome and together we can work on easing your body back into its optimal state of health.
Do you have painful periods? PMS? Debilitating fatigue? Mesntrual migranes or headaches? Weird spotting?
Yeah... that's not actually how your cycle is supposed to be. But don't worry, because we can work on all that together.
Do you understand the signals that your body is sending you? Our bodies always want to support us but if we don't know how to decode the messages our bodies send, they can feel like punishments more than messages. Isn't it time that we learn to work in harmony with our own beautiful bodies?
In all aspects of animal, plant, and human life fertility is associated with energy and vitality.
The sun shines and the flowers bloom within us too if we are able to nurture them and give our bodies what they need
