Sympto-Thermal Method

Couple to Couple League

Type in bigger text and center: Sympto-thermal Method (STM) is based on a woman’s observations of her cervical fluid, basal body temperature (waking temperature), and changes in the cervix on a daily basis. A woman records the characteristics of her cervical fluid secretions and monitors the basal body temperature, which rises after ovulation. Couples cross-check these two primary signs and follow specific guidelines to determine the beginning and end of their fertile and infertile days. Women should attend classes and receive instruction from a trained and certified medical profession to ensure accuracy in using the method to achieve or postpone pregnacy. Training can be specified to be used post-partum and peri-menopausal.
