In this 4 class series, Holly Leever, LAc & FAMM will guide practitioners in learning to track and chart the menstrual cycle using the Fertility Awareness Method (FAM).
Having studied with Sharon Weizenbaum, I do not align with the practice of drawing Chinese medical diagnostic conclusions from the menstrual cycle chart.
The chart is a tool to assess what is happening and when, but not to definitively diagnose. We use waking temperature (BBT), cervical mucus production and symptoms to gain greater clarity.
Instead of the same old BBT information that I’m sure you have already learned about, this class will include detailed methods for tracking basal body temperature (BBT), cervical mucus and cervical position.
Practitioners can also offer this series to their patients at a reduced rate.
This class will not enable you to teach the full Fertility Awareness Method to your patients, but will provide you will a solid foundation that you can bring into your clinical practice.
When we learn to assess the chart in a detailed way, BBT can give us so much more information than simply when ovulation is occurs. We can uncover metabolic and thyroid function issues, nutrient depletion or other issues we may otherwise not have been aware of.
Tracking cervical mucus using a specific and detailed method can help us to understand cervical health, nutrient deficiencies, gut issues, suboptimal hormone levels and more!
Learning FAM can empower women to take their fertility into their own hands (literally). FAM can help to uncover better body literacy, be used as a safe and effective form of natural pregnancy prevention or to prepare for pregnancy!
