FEMM Medical Management

The clinical treatment arm of the FEMM (Fertility Education and Medical Management) program, in which trained medical providers use cycle charting data (cervical mucus observations and urinary LH testing) alongside cycle-timed lab work to diagnose and treat reproductive and hormonal disorders. FEMM Medical Providers follow protocols developed by the Reproductive Health Research Institute (RHRI) under Dr. Pilar Vigil. Treatment categories include PCOS, thyroid dysfunction, luteal phase deficiency, recurrent pregnancy loss, anovulation, and menopausal disorders. FEMM is distinct from NaProTechnology in its charting method (sympto-hormonal rather than Creighton-only), institutional affiliation (RHRI rather than Saint Paul VI Institute), and protocol framework.1
