This course meets the continuing education requirement for recertification (required every 3 years).

Objectives:

Teachers will learn:

  • Never to make assumptions
  • To ask the right questions during chart reviews
  • To identify the likely hormone levels and cervical response when reviewing charts
  • To identify a Basic Infertile Pattern (BIP) in charts, especially when ovulation is delayed and when there is no cervical response to rising hormone levels
  • To identify a Peak only when the necessary criteria is present
  • To understand the Continuum of ovarian activity
  • To identify the need for referral for medical investigation when abnormalities in the Billings Ovulation Method® chart are observed

This program is divided into four specific areas.
It begins with a review of the science and methodology to ensure that there is a clear understanding of the basics of the Billings Ovulation Method®. Experienced teachers have all faced charts that present challenges. This program aims to identify the reasons this may be so:

  • Is her chart reflecting what is actually happening with her fertility and infertility?
  • Is her chart an accurate reflection of her life stage?
  • Is her chart reflecting some underlying medical problems?

The basis of this course is the Continuum of Ovarian Activity from Menarche to Menopause the life-work of Emeritus Professor James B Brown
