Abstract
The most recent data on natural methods of family planning, notably on the Billings, or ovulation, method, show statistically significant data on their effectiveness. A study conducted on 1139 couples followed for 2 years has yielded a failure rate of only 1.14%. Another study conducted in 1980 on 55 couples followed for a 2 year period has yielded a similar failure rate. Many experts sustain that NFP methods are not only completely risk-free, but are a creative contribution to a couple's human experience. The 3 NFP methods are the thermal, the sympto-thermal, and the ovulation method. NFP methods are not as well known as they deserve to be; women have a right to know all that is available to them in the field of contraception.
