At Connect Medical Clinic, you can gain knowledge and skills to take charge of your health and manage your fertility through Individual Education on Fertility Management. We can assist you in gaining insight into your own unique cycle, and learn more about the hormones that drive the changes you experience each month. At Connect, we offer an exciting, comprehensive women’s health and wellness program for optimal reproductive health. Our natural, breakthrough, science-based program helps women learn more about their bodies so women, from puberty to menopause, can be informed partners with their healthcare providers.
Take Charge of Your Health
There are many key health indicators tied to the ebb and flow of the hormones that regulate our monthly cycle – blood sugar, thyroid levels, skin issues, and even our mood! At Connect Medical Clinic, we’ll teach you to track the biomarkers tied to your fertility using a free app. With this powerful knowledge, you’ll be able to read and interpret what is going on with your body.
If you have health issues or problems with your cycle, learning your own body’s unique signs can help identify if underlying hormonal imbalances may be behind your problems. Learning to understand your own signs can provide you with the knowledge you need to achieve your health goals.
Manage Your Fertility: Planning or Delaying Pregnancy
According to a large body of medical research, a woman is fertile 5-7 days out of each cycle. By learning to read your body’s signs, you can effectively identify your days of possible fertility. Fertility Awareness is NOT the rhythm method. Rather than using past cycles to predict future fertility, Fertility Awareness focuses on reading a woman’s signs each day to determine where she is at in her cycle. The CDC confirms that Fertility Awareness Methods can be over 99% effective when applied correctly and is a non-hormone, non-IUD, all-natural way to approach avoiding pregnancy.
Connect Medical Clinic partners with FEMM (Fertility Education & Medical Management), a multi-national women’s health organization. Connect Medical Clinic RN, Colleen, and Executive Director, Tara, are certified FEMM instructors who are equipped to provide comprehensive evidenced-based education on fertility.
If your cycle is not within normal limits for your age or circumstances, Connect Medical Clinic’s Medical Director, Dr. Thomas Arnold, is a certified FEMM Medical Management provider.
Our Fertility Education Services are offered free of charge. Email Connect Medical Clinic (info@connectmedicalclinic.com) for more information.
