Creighton is completely natural, inexpensive, and has zero side-effects. It takes the simple, scientific fact that a woman’s cervical mucus changes in response to her fertility, then teaches women how to observe those changes and to chart them. Women, by understanding their own bodies, are far more effective at preventing unplanned pregnancy than the Pill manages to be. And it’s not a “one size fits all” approach. The method looks at a woman’s unique cycle and works with it.

But Creighton isn’t just a method of family planning. Creighton is a comprehensive understanding of women’s health, a method that takes the mystery out of a woman’s cycle and allows her to operate in sync with her body. Having this self-knowledge allows women to take care of all sorts of hormonal issues, from pregnancy to PMS, ovarian cysts to infertility. Thus Creighton boasts that:

 

  • It is 2 to 3 times more effective than in vitro fertilization at helping infertile couples have children — at a fraction of the cost.
  • It is 79% effective at helping women have a successful pregnancy after they have suffered repetitive miscarriages.
  • It can help women learn they are at risk for a miscarriage even before one has occurred.
  • It is is 95% effective at treating PMS, a condition that plagues millions of American women each month.
  • It is also 95% effective at treating Post-Partum Depression, which afflicts as many as one in five new mothers, often getting results within hours.
  • It cuts the rate of premature birth nearly in half — thus helping reduce the incidence of birth defects.
  • It allows for the accurate dating of the beginning of pregnancy, thus helping avoid end-of pregnancy complications.
  • It can more than halve the recurrence of chronic pelvic pain, and it reduces the hysterectomy rate by 75%.

…and much more. In the midst of all this, it’s important to realize that Creighton is not easy. It’s easy to learn, but — if a couple wishes to avoid pregnancy — it requires approximately 8-11 days of abstinence from sexual intercourse each month, a number that can increase if a couple is working to resolve a health issue. This requires real communication between couples, discipline, and a love willing to look beyond the present need and to the good of the other. Living a natural sex life demands something of a lifestyle change, a thing we humans fear.
