The Creighton Model FertilityCare System (CrMS) is based on a pivotal discovery — standardized observation of the fertility sign most closely associated with ovulation. This cervical mucus sign is charted by women for gynecologic health maintenance and couples use it to achieve or avoid pregnancy. Natural family planning (NFP) charting is taught to women and couples, and chastity (abstinence) is encouraged for teens and singles. Using the CrMS as a method of NFP, practicing periodic abstinence and SPICE, allows women and couples to gain psychosexual understanding (shaping their attitudes about sexual activity) and marital bonding (strengthening the couple’s bond in their marriage relationship). Tracking various biomarkers allows us to calculate a more accurate due date, which can help prevent labor and birth interventions, and identify possible women’s health conditions. A woman’s CrMS chart can be systematically read by NaProTechnology-trained physicians.
NaProTechnology restorative reproductive healthcare providers can diagnose and treat the root cause of many women’s health issues such as PMS (irritability, breast tenderness, bloating, weight gain, carbohydrate cravings, cry easily, depression, headache, fatigue, insomnia), PMDD, perimenopause symptoms, acne, hot flashes, night sweats, low libido, hormone imbalance, irregular cycles, long cycles, thyroid problems, missed periods, painful periods, menstrual cramps, heavy periods, clots during period, long periods, abnormal bleeding or unusual bleeding (spotting), continuous mucus, chronic discharges, inflammation and infections, PID, STDs, effects of stress, abdominal pain or pelvic pain, painful sex, endometriosis, adenomyosis, pelvic adhesions or scar tissue, ovarian cysts, fibroids, polyps, PCOS, excessive hair growth, miscarriage, recurrent miscarriage, premature birth, infertility, subfertility, limited mucus, dry cycles, PPD, post-birth control syndrome, and post-tubal ligation syndrome. NaProTechnology utilizes targeted hormone evaluation and then can use targeted hormone replacement to balance hormones throughout the woman’s cycle. Special services that they can also provide include natural menopausal therapy, detox programs, and abortion reversal (for RU-486). Unique NaProTechnology surgical techniques are also available to treat conditions such as endometriosis, adenomyosis, PCOS, and blocked tubes. And NaProTechnology may help in the diagnosis and treatment of male infertility and offers patients a moral method of seminal fluid collection for semen analysis.
