NATURAL FAMILY PLANNING: QUESTIONS ABOUT IT


Some other questions people ask about Natural Family Planning

Q. I’ve heard there are personal fertility computers which can make the calculations of fertile days easier. Are these available in Australia?

A. You are probably thinking of Persona, which is a little handheld computer that analyses homones in a woman’s urine and gradually builds up a pattern of her fertile and non-fertile times. These are not available in Australia but it may be possible to order one from Britain where they are made and are used by many women using natural family planning.

Q. Can I successfully use natural family planning as I get older and my natural fertility decreases anyway?

A. Anyone can learn to recognise the changes in their body which signal the beginning of a fertile time in the cycle. As you get older, though, the cycles tend to be a bit more irregular and it can become a little more difficult to rely on your previous cycle length.

Q. Can I use this method to help me fall pregnant if I want to?

A. Yes the very same changes can be used to help a woman predict the most fertile time in her cycle and therefore increase her chances of falling pregnant if that is what she wants to do.
