NaPro Medical
NaPro Medical is the non-surgical treatment arm of NaProTECHNOLOGY, guided by cycle charting. Its Creighton Model charts guide hormone testing and corrective medical care. NaPro Medical reads the cycle rather than shutting it down.
Trained NaPro clinicians use the chart to time lab tests to specific phases of the cycle. They look for patterns of hormone dysfunction. They then build a treatment plan aimed at the underlying condition.12
Cycle-timed testing lets a NaPro clinician read hormone levels in context. The phase of the cycle matters, and blood drawn at the wrong time gives misleading results. This attention to cycle phase sets NaPro Medical apart from standard hormone workups. It also makes the Creighton Model chart central to care, rather than an add-on.3
NaPro Medical treats many conditions. They include luteal phase deficiency, low progesterone and thyroid disorders. Others are high prolactin, insulin resistance, ovulation disorders and cycle-related immune conditions. Each treatment matches the diagnosed finding. It is timed to the relevant peak day or cycle phase. No single protocol fits every patient. The chart shapes the clinical picture for each couple.3
NaPro Medical follows a restorative model: treat the condition behind the hormone problem, not its symptoms. For couples facing infertility or pregnancy loss, this model means identifying and correcting the root cause instead of working around it.
The medical arm works alongside NaPro Surgery when a disease requires surgery. Both work within NaProTECHNOLOGY as a whole.4
