 | | The so-called Lactational Amenorrhoea Method (LAM) is said to be a "natural introductory method of natural family planning" but unless the woman is taught to recognize her positive signs of infertility and signs of impending fertility she may be directed towards using an artificial method when she suddenly fails to fit the LAM criteria. | | | During breast feeding and in other circumstances when ovulation is delayed, the Billings Ovulation Method is the only natural method which can effectively provide for the postponement of pregnancy. | | | This recognition of infertility in the pre-ovulatory phase depends upon understanding the scientific and practical concept of the Basic Infertile Pattern, which is an essential element of the authentic Billings Ovulation Method. |
