Natural family planning



Natural Family Planning (NFP) is a set of Catholic-sanctioned methods of family planning, which help women to achieve or avoid pregnancy by identifying times of infertility and potential fertility. In accordance with the teachings of this church, NFP excludes the use of artificial birth control methods and orgasmic acts outside of marital intercourse, promoting abstinence during high fertility times for couples trying to avoid pregnancy.
