Fertility Consultant. The Billings Ovulation Method®

As a fertility educator

I teach women and adolescent girls to identify the biomarkers of fertility according to the science of the Billings Ovulation Method.

I collaborate with health care professionals interpreting menstrual cycle charts. This approach is essential for the diagnosis and medical management, or treatment of menstrual cycle irregularities and infertility issues.

My personal journey

Ever since I was a girl, I had a deep respect for nature and marveled with the beauty and essence of womanhood. When it was time to plan a family, my inner self just could not come to terms with the two choices presented to me: to take the pill or have a device inserted in my body! It was just so unreal to disrupt a healthy system by having an apparatus in my body or, by ingesting synthetic hormones. I could not risk the side effects!

My experience with Natural Fertility Regulation

Learning a natural method that was based on science and that allowed my body to remain as intended by nature was wonderful! It was as effective as the pill on postponing pregnancy and simple to learn. Throughout the different stages of fertility, I was able to space the birth of my babies without doubts or regrets. And, it was essential in the diagnosis and treatment of reproductive health issues.

I wanted to share it with the world!

After using this method for over ten years, I became certified as a natural family planning teacher by the The Billings Ovulation Method® Association -USA.

Woman, it is your body!

Soon after my journey as a fertility educator began, I was aware of the lack of knowledge that most women have about their menstrual cycles. I also witnessed the disparity, that not only women but teenage girls were experiencing, when receiving “medical care” to address menstrual irregularities. I just could not be still and decided to continue my training. I resourced to organizations that are leading in implementing effective medical protocols. The tools I acquired, allow me to collaborate with women and medical professionals side to side. The benefit? women can obtain a diagnosis and a medical treatment based on evidence.

Be informed about your options,
decades of scientific research by the leaders in fertility education are at your service!
