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 an accurate reflection of her life stage?
- Is her chart reflecting some underlying medical problems?
