What Actually is FAM?

If you've ever wondered what FAM is all about, you've come to the right place.

FAM, short for fertility awareness method, is a powerful technique that allows individuals to track their fertility. It can either be used as a form of contraception or as a method to achieve pregnancy.

At its core, FAM is all about learning to identify your fertile days throughout the cycle. FAM is a group of contraceptive methods, including methods such as cervical mucus tracking, cervical hight and Basal Body Temperature (BBT).

One of the key advantages of FAM is its versatility. It can be used as a highly effective form of contraception for individuals who prefer a natural and hormone-free approach. By abstaining from intercourse or using barrier methods during fertile days, you can greatly reduce the risk of unplanned pregnancy.

Conversely, FAM can also be used as a tool to aid in conception. By actively tracking your fertile days, you can increase your chances of getting pregnant by timing intercourse during your fertile window.

It's important to note that FAM requires dedication and consistency. You need to be committed to monitoring and recording the various signs and symptoms of your fertility. This may include observing changes in cervical mucus daily, taking your BBT every morning, and paying attention to other fertility signs.

By adopting FAM, you gain a deeper understanding of your body and its natural cycles. This knowledge empowers you to make informed decisions about your reproductive health.
