Fertility Awareness

Women who experience difficulty while trying to get pregnant often turn to fertility charting in order to pinpoint the day or days of their cycle when they have the highest chances of becoming pregnant.  Many couples who fail to get pregnant may often only be trying to conceive on the wrong days.  Their chances of conceiving are increased greatly when they identify the most fertile days of their cycle and then engage in intercourse on those days.

Charting fertility is growing increasingly popular as many women turn away from hormonal forms of contraception as well as hormonal treatments which help bring about pregnancy.  Fertility charting is a natural way to make decisions regarding both conception and contraception based on cyclical charts and observations.

In order to chart your own fertility, you should not be taking any kind of hormonal birth control or any other medication that affects your ovulation cycle or body temperature.  To practice fertility charting accurately, you also must commit to being consistent and thorough in your practice.  Charting fertility for conception and contraception can be an enjoyable activity that is really helpful in understanding your natural cycle, but it does take time and preparation.
