Developed by Drs. John and Evelyn Billings, the Billings Ovulation Method has been found to be a simple yet effective method of Natural Family Planning (NFP). This method was originally started in Australia and has grown to more than 120 countries.
The Billings Ovulation Method is based on the science of the woman’s body and can work effectively for women is all circumstances; breastfeeding/weaning, coming off of contraceptives, approaching menopause, temporarily postponing pregnancy, etc. Women become familiar with their bodies and begin to understand the signs of fertility and infertility. NFP has shown to increase communication, trust, and prayer life of couples. It is important for both man and woman to actively participate in the course.
This method focuses on the daily observation of a woman’s cervical mucus through sensation and appearance.
