Natural Fertility and Family Planning
Getting Back to Basics
Harness the Power of Your Fifth Vital Sign
Your menstrual cycle is so much more than a monthly occurrence; it’s a vital sign of your health. Guiding Star supports you in understanding and embracing fertility as a natural biological process. By educating women on their bodies’ functions, we empower them to take control of their health and advocate for their reproductive rights.
Artificial hormones and contraceptives may be the norm in today’s health care, but they are not the only options. Learn about natural fertility tracking methods that work harmoniously with your body, addressing root causes of health issues rather than simply applying a “band-aid” solution.
