Do Activities #5a and #5b • After reviewing the tissue examination and the sensation observation, turn to pages 10-12 and complete the activities.
Secondary Signs IP BT BT BT IP = Intermenstrual Pain BT = Breast Tenderness

All higher than immediately preceding 6… 2 5 1 6 3 4
To separate the “initial” highs from the “final” lows 2 5 6 1 3 4
Draw a Pre-Rise Baseline through the highest of the final 6 lows PRB 2 5 1 3 6 4
Full Thermal Shift Level is 0.4°F above the PRB FTSL .4°F PRB *FTSL = 0.36° F/0.2° C
CITstarts the evening of the 3rdpost-peak high in a row, if it is on or above the FTSL. PK FTSL .4° F PRB 2 5 1 6 3 4
If the 3rd post-peak high is not on or above the FTSL, wait until the evening of the 4th post-peak high to assume the CIT.
6-5-0 Day Rule Application Shortest Past Cycle Assume Infertile • 26 days or longer 6 days • 23-25 days 5 days • 22 days or less 0 days (for now)
Do Activity #6 • With this activity you will be applying both the 6-5-0 Day Rule and the Sympto-Thermal Rule. Pay attention to the cycle length as well as the charting data. • Indicate the beginning and end of the fertile time with the use of “wavy” lines. • Mark the Peak Day, 6 low temperatures, the PRB, Full Thermal Shift Line (.4oF), and the necessary encircled high temperatures.
Reasons for Using NFP Philosophical/Religious Moral/Ethical Psychology Biological
Definitions • Method Effectiveness • Rules are correctly understood and followed • Use Effectiveness • Actual use including misunderstanding and carelessness
NFP Effectiveness • Method Effectiveness – 97-99+ percent • Use Effectiveness – 90-99+ percent
