Many men and women today are increasingly interested in the workings of their fertility, particularly as infertility is on the rise and couples are settling down at a later stage in life.

  

In recent years, most couples have come to understand and manage their fertility only by artificial means as there have been few other effective alternatives.  Couples are increasingly seeking a more natural, successful, ethical, medical alternative to currently available artificial infertility treatments.

 

 

This rapidly growing demand for a contemporary co-operative method of infertility evaluation and treatment has led to the development of FertilityCare™ and NaproTechnology by which couples can rediscover and demystify the natural functioning of their fertility – with incredible results. In today’s climate where one couple out of every six will experience difficulty conceiving, this is a tremendous advantage. There are many treatment options available today to couples experiencing infertility, and this new approach offers a successful, minimally invasive approach to the assessment and treatment of infertility.

The FertilityCare™ approach sees it as critical to be able to identify the underlying cause of a couple’s infertility, and to directly treat this cause. Many couples enter our programme with a diagnosis of ‘unexplained infertility’, which can add frustration to their experience. This programme offers an opportunity for a closer evaluation of one’s reproductive health, and can lead to the detection of problems which may previously have been overlooked.

What is the Creighton Model and NaproTechnology?

 

The foundation of NaproTechnology is the Creighton Model System, which teaches women to observe certain biomarkers and thereby monitor fertility and keep good records of their own gynaecological health.  These biomarkers are easily observed and analysed in all types of menstrual cycles.

In this way, couples become their own ‘fertility experts’ and are empowered to take control of their fertility, understand the natural sequences of fertility and infertility, and be several steps ahead in the evaluation and treatment of gynaecological and reproductive abnormalities.

NaproTechnology NaproTechnology (Natural Procreative Reproductive Technology) is a recently developed reproductive science which works hand in hand with FertilityCare™. NaproTechnology uses an in depth knowledge of the woman’s cycle obtained from the FertilityCare™ Chart to help diagnose the underlying cause of infertility. In listening to the woman’s cycle, NaproTechnology often detects problems that standard infertility evaluation may miss.

 

Examples of abnormalities that can be detected from FertilityCare™ charting are:

The abnormal FertilityCare™ chart immediately alerts the trained FertilityCare™ Practitioner and NaproTechnology Medical Consultant to the possibility that this couple may have an underlying pathological process preventing successful pregnancy.

 

NaproTechnology works co-operatively with the body’s natural procreative cycle. It does not suppress or manipulate the body’s reproductive system, but enhances and optimises its function by thoroughly evaluating and treating underlying problems. NaproTechnology tunes into the body’s natural fertility and treats problems with specific, minimally invasive medical treatments.

 

Together, NaproTechnology and FertilityCare™ offer a holistic approach to procreative healthcare, renewing your sense of dignity and giving you a lifelong appreciation of your fertility.

 

NaproTechnology and FertilityCare™ combine to form a contemporary approach to infertility treatment and gynaecological problems based on more than twenty-five years of research and innovative treatment by Consultant Obstetrician and Gynaecologist Dr T. W. Hilgers, Director of the PPVI Institute for the Study of Human Reproduction in the USA. Dr Hilgers is also clinical professor of obstetrics and gynaecology at Creighton University School of Medicine, USA. 

 

International interest in NaproTechnology and FertilityCare™ has culminated in the recent opening of three new centres in the past five years (Ireland, Canada and Australia).  In each case, the demand for services has been overwhelming, particularly in the areas of infertility treatment and women’s healthcare.

...Rediscover and demystify the natural functioning of your fertility  with incredible results!

This involves the orderly and systematic evaluation of a woman’s menstrual cycle using the Creighton Model System together with accurately timed blood tests to check for subtle hormonal deficiencies, some of which are usually missed with the present day 21 blood tests, ultrasound examination, timed ultrasound follicular tracking and various diagnostic procedures such as hysteroscopy and laparoscopy where necessary to thoroughly evaluate any abnormalities. Seminal fluid assessment is obtained through intercourse.

These are individually designed and may involve the use of natural hormones and various medications to correct any hormonal, ovulatory or cervical mucus dysfunctions, surgery to correct any physical problems (e.g. tubal reconstruction surgery for blocked fallopian tubes, diathermy for endometriosis, ovarian drilling for Polycystic Ovaries, removal of pelvic adhesions) and treatment to improve male fertility.
                                                                                                      

NaproTechnology Treatment is offered only if some abnormality is detected. Establishing a diagnosis is central to our treatment approach. It is uncommon to have a diagnosis of ‘Unexplained Infertility’ using FertilityCare™ and NaproTechnology.

 

NaproTechnology can treat nearly every cause of infertility including:

In line with FertilityCare’s™ approach to respecting the entire person, careful attention is paid to the emotional, spiritual and psychological aspects of health.  Attention is also given to lifestyle influences (e.g. stress) and various other factors that impact on fertility.
