Creighton Method

This method relies on standardized daily observations of cervical mucus and charting. Learning to interpret these biomarkers also empowers women to monitor, evaluate and maintain their gynecological health.

Based on research by Dr. Hilgers at the Pope Paul VI Institute in Omaha, Nebraska, this system is integrated with medical consultants who are trained in NaProTECHNOLOGY. NaProTECHNOLOGY is a new reproductive health science that allows doctors to identify and treat underlying conditions that cause reproductive and gynecological health problems including severe PMS, heavy bleeding, long and irregular cycles, infertility, recurring miscarriages, ovarian cysts and more.

An individual or group introductory session is offered by certified trained practitioners followed by eight one-on-one follow up sessions spaced out over the first year of instruction. The follow ups build on each other with more advanced instruction as the client is more knowledgeable about their cycle. The materials cost $20 and the fee for each session is $30*.

The Diocese of Owensboro Office of Marriage & Family Life partners with the Holy Family Center for Life. Please call Kelli at 812-421-2030 to begin instruction.

* Scholarships are available for couples with financial difficulties to receive instruction in either method for free or at a reduced rate.
