This app exists because of the people who taught us the Creighton Model FertilityCare™ System. Thank you.
Certified FertilityCare Practitioner — Philadelphia, PA
Marie has been our CFCP and the patient teacher who walked us through CrMS observation, charting, and interpretation in the first place. Every yellow stamp, peak day, and post-peak count in this app traces back to the careful instruction she's given over the course of our learning.
Marie is a health educator of 35 years and a Certified FertilityCare Practitioner affiliated with Queen of Hearts Fertility Care & NaPro Technology and the Gianna Center of Philadelphia. She offers in-person CrMS instruction throughout Philadelphia and the surrounding suburbs, including a particular focus on young female athletes and the intersection of the female cycle with sport performance.
If you're in the Philadelphia area and looking for a CrMS practitioner, you can reach her directly using the contact information above.
The Creighton Model FertilityCare™ System and the underlying clinical science were developed by Dr. Thomas W. Hilgers and the Pope Paul VI Institute for the Study of Human Reproduction. To find a certified practitioner anywhere in the world, visit FertilityCare.org.
Almost every clinical detail in this app — the observation codes, the stamping rules, the Peak Day definition, the post-Peak count, the Vaginal Discharge Recording System used by the observation form — comes from this textbook:
Hilgers, Thomas W. The Creighton Model FertilityCare™ System: An Authentic Language of a Woman's Health and Fertility. Pope Paul VI Institute Press, Omaha, Nebraska.
ISBN 978-0-9626485-4-0 / 0-9626485-4-X
If you want to learn the method properly, this is the book. We recommend reading it alongside instruction from a certified FertilityCare Practitioner; the book is the reference and the practitioner is the teacher.
