Abstract

NaProTECHNOLOGY (Natural Procreative Technology) is defined as a women's health science that monitors and cooperates with the menstrual and fertility cycles to identify, evaluate, and treat gynecologic and reproductive disorders at their root cause. Unlike suppressive approaches such as hormonal contraception or ART, NaProTECHNOLOGY maintains procreative potential and treats underlying pathology while preserving the human ecology of reproduction.
