Specialized Medical Consultants work to diagnose and treat the underlying causes of infertility using the science of NaProTECHNOLOGY and can achieve up to an 80% success rate, depending on the medical condition. They work in parallel with you and your FertilityCare Practitioner, who will guide you in navigating your charting of the Creighton Model FertilityCare System.

A couple would be classigied as experiencing infertility if they have had no pregnancies after 12 months, or have experienced multiple miscarriages. For couples who have been trying for less than 12 months, St. Marguerite Bourgeoys FertilityCare Toronto will still work with you to identify any fertility concerns through the charting of the Creighton Model FertilityCare System and send a referral to a Medical Consultant if any biomarkers are found.

The one year FertilityCare Program includes:

• A private introductory session on the Creighton Model FertilityCare System
• Charting starter kit including charts, stamps, and user manual
• 8 private follow-up sessions with a FertilityCare Practitioner to ensure accurate observations and charting
• Referral to a NaProTECHNOLOGY Medical Consultant, if required
• Additional sessions with your Pracitioner beyond the first year are provided as needed.
