Different MethodS Explained

All NFP methods are similar because understanding the woman’s reproductive system is common to all methods. Here is what they share:

• They all rely on the charting of observable signs of fertility and infertility in the woman and abstinence from all genital contact during the fertile time to postpone a pregnancy.*

• They are all reliable, highly effective, and free from side effects and the abortifacient nature that haunt all chemical forms of contraception and IUDs. We want to assure you that these methods are NOT the old-fashioned rhythm method.*​​​​​

• Each of the national USCCB-approved methods has its own provider organization that promotes the method, publishes materials, does research, and trains teachers. Each NFP method has excellent websites for more information.*

• However, most charting apps for your cell phone do not have those decades-long use and research as the methods we teach. In addition, most apps are based on the “rhythm method” and so can be prone to inaccuracies. Here is an excellent article that assesses the performance of these apps to avoid pregnancy. You might be surprised by their results!*
