Advantages of Natural Family Planning
Natural family planning strengthens marriages by developing communication skills and shared responsibility between spouses. NFP is completely natural and organic. No chemicals or devices enter the body. There are NO medical side effects.

Natural Family Planning is a means of either achieving or avoiding pregnancy based upon the couple’s knowledge of their cyclic fertility and infertility. NFP is morally acceptable to all faiths. It is 99% effective when used to prevent or postpone pregnancy by an instructed and motivated couple.
