Curious about a completely natural form a birth control, free of drugs, devices and worry? Want to know how to determine when ovulation has occurred so that you can safely have intercourse without concern of pregnancy – or to know when is the best time to conceive? Wondering about the effects of different hormones, and how women’s cycles are intimately related to the cycles and rhythms of our lives?
The Fertility Awareness Method (FAM) is a natural and precise sympto-thermal method that helps offer a new perspective on a woman’s cyclical changes, which can be helpful for determining the best time to conceive – or to avoid pregnancy – and also offer insight into how these changes are part of our deeper sexual and creative expression. This introductory course will outline the basic notions of FAM, clarify misconceptions about the practice, and explain when it is and isn’t an ideal method. It is open to anyone interested in learning more about FAM.
