Vitae Fertility Education

Vitae Fertility Education At Vitae Fertility, we teach the Marquette Method. It's easy to learn, highly effective, and taught by RNs.

The Marquette Method is a type of Natural Family Planning which uses Clearblue Fertility Monitors to precisely track your LH and estrogen levels. Vitae Fertility Education is run by a Registered Nurse trained as an instructor of the Marquette Method of Natural Family Planning. By tracking the hormone levels in a woman's body throughout her menstrual cycle the woman is able to identify the time in

her cycle in which she is fertile. She can use this information to achieve or avoid pregnancy or to track hormone imbalances she may be experiencing. The Marquette Method boasts the highest efficacy rates of the mainstream NFP methods, outranking Billings, Creighton, and Symptothermal! In regular cycles it is 99% effective at avoiding pregnancy when used with an instructor, and when used during the breastfeeding/postpartum phase it is 98% effective. The Marquette Method utilizes urinary hormone levels and can detect the fertile window more accurately than most other methods. A more accurate detection of the fertile window means less days of abstinence per cycle! In-person courses are available at this time, and online courses will be available in the next few months. Individual and group sessions are offered, with discounted rates for group sessions (5 couples or more).

Have you ever gotten pregnant unexpectedly, and blamed yourself thinking you must’ve done something wrong…?
Can I gently push back on that for a moment? 💚

🙋‍♀️ I’ve been there. I love all my children, regardless of whether I saw the pregnancy coming or not.

After a couple of surprise pregnancies while using a mucus method of NFP, my husband and I decided it was time to look into a different method of NFP!

If your method didn’t work out the way you had hoped, that’s not a character flaw. It might just mean the method wasn’t built for the season you were in.

🤗 Every body is different. Every season of life is different. If one method doesn’t seem to be a good fit, that doesn’t mean NFP itself has failed you...
.. and it doesn’t mean that you suck at NFP!

It might just mean it’s time to try a different approach.

Marquette was designed with exactly this in mind: a simple, objective method that adapts to postpartum, breastfeeding, irregular cycles, and more 🤓

If you’re pregnant, healing, or just done questioning yourself, we’d love to help you find a method that works for your life in your current season 💚

And honestly, it might not even be Marquette. We’re here for an honest conversation, not a sales call.

💬 “Cervical mucus checks multiple times a day just felt like too much. Was it 10K? Or 8CK? X1 or X2? When my baby was crying, did I wipe too quickly and miss a critical mucus observation?”
- Ashlee, RN 👩‍⚕️

Our own Marquette Method instructor Ashlee gets real about her NFP journey while postpartum, breastfeeding, and drowning in mucus checks multiple times a day amid diaper changes, and middle-of-the-night feeds.

Then she found Marquette, and everything changed 😊

If this sounds familiar, Marquette is going to be a breath of fresh air for you, too!

✔ One urine test each morning, that’s it.
✔ Only 3 charting categories
✔ No worrying about regular life stuff throwing off your readings
✔ Clear, and objective, results every time: low, high, or peak

We’ve been walking couples through this exact transition for years. If your current method feels like too much, you’re not stuck with it.

🤱 Breastfeeding? 👩‍🍼 Pumping & bottle feeding?
Let’s make NFP a little simpler to do.

🤏 No mucus checks. 🌡 No taking temps. 🚽Just one p*e test a day.

The Marquette Method breastfeeding protocol tracks your hormones directly, so it works whether your baby sleeps through the night or wakes up every two hours to nurse or pump.

🤓 98% effective if you follow the protocol correctly, 92% effective with typical use while you’re breastfeeding and/or pumping!

You can just place your test stick in the monitor and not think about testing the rest of the day! That’s it 😌

🤔 In case you’re wondering if you have to be Catholic to learn the Marquette Method of NFP from Vitae Fertility… short answer: nope! 🤗

NFP isn’t just for Catholics, and while the majority of our instructors are Catholic, not all of them are. What every instructor shares is that we teach in alignment with the Catholic Church.

For us, Vitae Fertility isn’t just a business; it’s a ministry 🙏

As instructors, we all walk in faith.

We pray together, we fast together, and we let God guide the work we do. All of us at Vitae know that we could not do this work without Jesus ✝

But you don’t have to share our faith to be our client.

We welcome couples of every faith background, and couples who aren’t religious at all. Wherever you’re starting from, we’d be honored to walk with you 💚

🔊 We want to say this so loudly, and so clearly: having irregular cycles doesn’t mean NFP is off the table for you!

The Marquette Method is actually especially useful (and effective) for women navigating short, long, or irregular-length cycles, coming off hormonal birth control, and health conditions that affect fertility like hormone imbalances, thyroid conditions, and PMOS (formerly PCOS) 🙋‍♀️

Vitae instructors have walked alongside women managing conditions & transitions like:

☑️ PMOS (PCOS)

☑️ Hypothyroid & Hyperthyroid

☑️ Hashimoto’s

☑️ Endometriosis

☑️ PMDD

☑️ Perimenopause

☑️ Breastfeeding

…and more.

Here’s the part that makes Marquette different: because it’s only taught by doctors and Registered Nurses, your chart can reveal more than just fertility. It can point to underlying health issues, and your instructor will refer you to a specialist if something looks off 👩‍⚕️

If you’ve been told your cycles are “too irregular” for NFP, we’d love to show you how we could help!

🤰Being a mom is hard… your NFP journey doesn’t have to be 💚

Nursing a baby while a toddler tugs at your sleeve?

Running on four hours of sleep and wondering how you’re supposed to track anything right now?

🫠 You’re feeling overwhelmed by your everyday demands.

It’s okay to not be ready for another baby just yet, and still want to feel close to your husband 👩‍❤️‍👨

The Marquette Method is designed for exactly this season.

It’s effective even while breastfeeding, and gives you clarity when everything else feels unpredictable 💚

I know sometimes you may be wondering if whatever situation you’re experiencing is worth contacting your instructor…

In case you’re feeling like you’re overthinking it, here are some typical times when our clients reach out to us:

📈 You have your first peak reading (your instructor will want to see your chart and your peak stick!)
🗓 You notice any bleeding outside of when you'd expect your period
🩸 There’s a significant change in your bleeding pattern (like a period that’s much lighter than usual, etc)

You’re entering a new season of life:
👶 A new baby has arrived
🍼 You’re weaning from breastfeeding/pumping
💊 A new medical diagnosis or medication change
👟 Shifts in diet, exercise, or new supplements
❓Cycle changes you can’t explain

Honestly, just let us know if things get weird! 😅

If you’re confused, fell off the testing wagon, or things just aren’t progressing how you expected, that counts, too!

Your instructor is there for your questions – don’t sit on them, we want to know what’s going on so we can help! 👩‍⚕️

If you don’t already have an instructor, we'd love to help. Whether you’re learning the Marquette Method of NFP for the first time, or it’s been a while, we can meet you where you’re at.

I sat down with the NFP Podcast this summer for such a good conversation! 🎙

We covered a lot of ground together, including Vitae Fertility’s origin story, how I went from being a neurotrauma nurse to a Marquette Method instructor, and how God took my experiences (even the tragic ones) and turned them into something beautiful 🙏💚

Whether you’re new to NFP, preparing for marriage, or just curious how faith and science work together in this space, I hope this podcast offers you some insight and the knowledge you’re not alone in this journey!

💬 “This might be TMI, but…”

We hear this. All. The. Time.
And every single time, we want to say: bring it 💚

After walking with over 6,000 women through their fertility journeys, we can promise you there is very little that is actually TMI for us!

✔ Unusual bleeding? Heard it.
✔ Confusing mucus? Seen it.
✔ Something that happened that you’re not sure how to even describe? We’ve got you.

You don’t need to censor yourself with your instructor, or figure out the right way to ask. Just ask 📲

We’re the safe space for every “wait…is this normal?” moment, and we’d rather you ask us than spend another week down a chatbot rabbit hole! 🤖👀

Here for you 😊
