| Summary: | Natural Family Planning (NFP) is not a contraceptive method but fertility awareness.
It empowers women through education, charting and interpretive skills towards self-knowledge, health
reasons and family planning purposes, to be in control of their reproductive health. Substantive literature
supports its comparative effectiveness with contraceptive methods but remains a myth to both clinicians
and health care users. The aim of the study was to understand perception of clinicians regarding offering
NFP to patients as part of reproductive health care. |
