Conditions treated by NaProTECHNOLOGY:
NaProTECHNOLOGY(TM) is a new, scientifically-based approach to managing women's reproductive and gynecologic disorders.
First, women are taught to monitor and record the signs of their fertility using a unique, coded system. Then NaProTECHNOLOGY(TM) physicians use this information to diagnose and treat the underlying causes of a woman's symptoms. NaProTECHNOLOGY(TM) treatments work cooperatively with a woman's naturally-occurring cycle to restore health and normal function.
Unlike other treatments, which bypass the problem with an artificial technology or suppress the fertility cycle with hormonal contraceptives, NaProTECHNOLOGY(TM) uniquely respects the dignity of women, the natural ecology of their bodies, and the sanctity of human life.
For more information, visit www.naprotechnology.com
One of the most exciting applications of NaProTECHNOLOGY(TM) is in the area of infertility.
More than 30 years of research into the underlying causes of infertility have made it possible for NaProTECHNOLOGY(TM) physicians to diagnose and treat many of the conditions which cause infertility, with success rates comparable to IVF (in vitro fertilization).*
Other unique benefits of the NaProTECHNOLOGY(TM) approach include:
Correctable factors which contribute to a couple's infertility include:
*Hilgers, TW. The Medical and Surgical Practice of NaProTECHNOLOGY. Pope Paul VI Institute Press. Omaha, NE. 2004.
As a true method of family planning, the CrMS can be used to both achieve and avoid a pregnancy.
Fertility-focused intercourse allows 98.5% of couples of normal fertility to achieve a pregnancy within 6 months.*
When used to avoid pregnancy, the method is 99% effective.*
The CrMS chart also serves as a diagnostic tool, allowing Gianna physicians to diagnose and treat underlying reproductive and gynecologic conditions using NaProTECHNOLOGY(TM).
Education in the CrMS is available at The Gianna Center. Please contact our FertilityCare(TM) Center to schedule an Introductory Session.
The Creighton Model FertilityCare(TM) System (CrMS) is a modern fertility awareness method (FAM) of family planning.
By learning to identify the signs of a woman's fertility, a couple can successfully space their children according to their unique needs.

Our Center utilizes only those medical practices that are consistent with the Directives, which underline the dignity of marriage as the source of all human life. More specific details can be found at:
