Share the FACTS
FACTS maintains a network of physicians, medical students, and other healthcare professionals from across the country who are trained to deliver up-to-date presentations on natural or fertility awareness-based methods (FABMs). Speakers travel to your university, office, or other location to present to both medical professionals and general audiences. Live, online speaker presentations are also available.
Additionally, each presentation is available for purchase as an on-demand webinar.
The goal of these presentations is to educate health professionals about FABMs and their applications for addressing women’s health.
The FABMs for Family Planning presentation educates medical and other health professionals about the science supporting FABMs and how these methods can be used for family planning. We offer two versions of the presentation, each running 60 minutes in length.
Each of the two presentations are approved for 1.00 CME credit by the American Academy of Family Physicians (AAFP) per presentation.
This presentation describes each of the evidence-based methods
and their effectiveness rates for avoiding pregnancy. Applications
for achieving pregnancy are also briefly discussed.
This presentation focuses on how FABMs can be used to help couples
achieve pregnancy, even if they may be dealing with infertility.
The Female Cycle as the 5th Vital Sign highlights the health of the female cycle and how the female chart can potentially aid in the diagnosis and management of common women’s health concerns. Speakers discuss the basic science behind fertility charting and review a variety of fertility charts, including potential indications of a woman’s health status based on what the chart reveals.
This presentation is 90 minutes in length and approved for 1.50 CME credit by the American Academy of Family Physicians (AAFP).
FACTS offers non-medical audiences two presentations that explain the basics about the signs of fertility and their applications for family planning and women’s health. There is no CME credit awarded for these general audience presentations.
The Facts About Fertility Explained provides the perfect overview for a general audience that may have not heard about these methods and highlights how they provide a healthy alternative for family planning. The presentation covers the science of charting a women’s cycle and the applications, benefits, and effectiveness of FABMs for family planning. The presentation also compares the benefits of FAMBs to those of artificial methods of birth control. This presentation is 50 minutes in length.
Two versions of the presentation are available, each with a slightly different emphasis. A Healthier Choice highlights how FABMs offer a healthier alternative to conventional methods of birth control for family planning. Choosing a Method focuses more on factors women or couples may want to consider when choosing a method that is best for them.
Know Your Body brings the science underlying the female cycle to an age-appropriate level for adolescents. We encourage teenage girls to watch it together with their moms or guardians!
The webinar will review the signs of the female cycle that girls can learn to chart using a fertility awareness-based method (FABM). Our trained speakers will also discuss the connection between cycle awareness and their health.
