About the class
 
Sympto-Thermal Method classes are taught in a series of four sessions usually scheduled a month apart, with individual chart reviews at the client's convenience, during or after the class sessions. Individual chart reviews are needed for effective use of any NFP method. Reviews can be arranged by contacting an NFP teacher or the archdiocesan coordinator.
Learn:
  • how to recognize and chart the mucus
  • how to recognize other fertility signs
  • how to deal with unusual circumstances
  • infertility concerns

About the method
 
The Sympto Thermal Method (STM) identifies a woman's time of fertility by correlating three signs: mucus, temperature, and cervical changes. It also asks couples to chart disturbances such as stress, prescription and Over the Counter (OTC) drugs, etc.
 
Daily observations of the cervical mucus sign indentifies the beginning of the fertile time. The STM teaches the fertile time ends after after day three of a sustained temperature shift or after the evening of the fourth day after the cervical mucus stops, whichever is latest.
