“Participants with higher fecundability (age < 35 and cycle length variation < 5 days with sexual intercourse logged at least 20% of days) had higher probability of pregnancy: 88% at 6 cycles and 96% at 12 cycles with a median time to pregnancy of 2 cycles.”
“This study found 86 pregnancies per 100 women at 24 months of tracking, affirming the utility of cycle tracking in patients attempting to conceive.”
“After the first positive urinary LH test or the end of fertile-type mucus, 3 consecutive days of urinary PDG above 5 µg/mL is 100% specific to confirm ovulation.”
“In two studies of women with minimal or mild endometriosis, there was a statistically significant benefit in undergoing laparoscopic treatment to increase the ongoing pregnancy or live birth rate as compared to expectant management, in patients with and without endometriotic adhesions.”
“The live birth rate of 66% achieved through NaProTechnology offers hope for both couples and medical professionals.”
