Knowledge, dignity and cooperative care
What every woman has the right to know about her body…her health…her future!
NaProTECHNOLOGY is a reproductive science that works cooperatively with the natural procreative cycle.
The Creighton Model FertiltyCare System is scientifically sound, accurate, precise and effective. It can be used, not only to achieve or avoid pregnancy, but also to further the evaluation of issues that plague so many women’s lives and make them feel periodically – or continually – miserable!
Reading biological markers
Creighton Model Chart: abnormalities identified through charting
Using the Creighton Model FertilityCare System as a means of monitoring one’s reproductive and gynaecological health has led to the new reproductive medical and surgical science of NaProTECHNOLOGY ®. This science utilizes the patterns observed in the NaProTRACKING® of the biological markers of the cycle in such a way that it allows for the interpretation of various aspects of a woman’s health.
The CrMS chart, which is unique to each woman, allows also for the proper timing of the blood tests and ultrasound scans. The chart, together with the results from these tests, will also reflect progress in the optimisation of the cycles.

Understanding symptoms
A Note about PMS (Premenstrual Syndrome)
PMS is a grouping of symptoms which can begin several days prior to the onset of menstruation. These symptoms usually include irritability, breast tenderness, bloating, weight gain, carbohydrate craving, tearfulness, anxiety, depression, fatigue, headache and/or insomnia. Some mild symptoms for one or two days prior to menstruation should not be considered PMS.
Treatment and next steps
Personalised care, working with the cycle
TREATMENTS for women’s Health issues – which are personalised and provided cooperatively (“in sync”) with your own cycles – include hormonal and non-hormonal treatments, supplements and diet.
