The Billings Ovulation Method® is a cervical mucus-only method of charting. If you are interested in learning a symptothermal approach with me, check out my SymptoPro course.
Billings is a cervical mucus-only method of Fertility Awareness (also known as Natural Family Planning). It is a system of determining a couple's real time fertility and infertility based primarily on sensation at the vulva observed throughout the day. Billings can be used for avoiding or achieving pregnancy and health monitoring. The method originated in the 1950s and 60s under the leadership of Drs. John and Evelyn Billings and evolved to its current form over the next forty years of continued research. Modern Fertility Awareness Based Methods (FABMs) have proven to be up to 99%+ effective with perfect use.

two live, online classes lasting 1-1.5 hours each
follow-up appointments every 2-4 weeks until autonomy at six months (Postpartum clients continue with follow-ups until three regular cycles have been completed.)
Spouses/Partners are encouraged to attend.
Be aware of what you sense at the vulva and what vaginal discharge you happen to see throughout the day.
Record it on your chart at the end of each day.
THAT'S IT! No morning alarms or temperature taking. No detailed wiping protocols during bathroom visits. No urinary hormone tests.
You live in the United States.
You have discontinued use of hormonal birth control and IUDs by the start of our first class.
You are able to abstain from all genital contact for the first 2-4 weeks of the learning process. For those avoiding pregnancy, continued abstinence during method identified times of fertility is a key factor in achieving highest efficacy. Use of barrier methods and/or withdrawal is a departure from correct use of the method, lowers expected efficacy, and may decrease the number of days identified as safe for unprotected intercourse.
You are open to using a paper chart, a spreadsheet chart, or an approved Billings charting app.
After your registration is complete, I will send you a Client Packet with paper charts (digital charting options also available) and review booklet.
