In looking at the whole concept of NaProTECHNOLOGY, the role of the Creighton Model FertilityCare™ System as a true method of family planning cannot be overlooked. This is not a system which has been developed only for the purposes of assisting in the further understanding of various medical conditions or problems. In fact, it is a true family planning system that allows the couple, through the use of selective intercourse, to either achieve or avoid pregnancy at those times in their lives when those decisions are appropriate to their situation.
Thus, it is a system – that truly networks family planning with women’s health. Thus, it is truly a permanent system for a woman so that she can better understand the phases of her fertility so that she and her husband can plan their family appropriately. From her ongoing charting, the woman also receives the benefit of having a system that allows her to monitor and maintain her own health.
Keep in mind that the value of this information can only be obtained through its prospective data collection. That is one of the main important features of the CrMS. That is, it is a prospective not a retrospective data collection system. If one does not monitor her fertility by monitoring the various biological markers of the CrMS, one cannot reconstruct those aspects of her fertility or health from memory. As a result, it is extremely important for those women who enter the CrMS as a means of family planning to recognize the important health benefits of their continued charting. At the same time, for those women who enter because of a primarily medical reason, it is equally important for them to understand the great value that it presents as a means of naturally regulating human fertility.
