Avoid pregnancy with ease

Take a Billings Ovulation Method class from the comfort of your own home.

Did you know?

You can’t get pregnant on every day of your cycle. There is a window of potential fertility in every cycle that you can learn to identify using the Billings Ovulation Method.

The Billings Method is a fertility awareness based method that identifies patterns of fertility and infertility throughout the menstrual cycle, primarily through recognizing sensations experienced at the vulva.

This information can be used to avoid or achieve pregnancy, depending on the couple’s intentions, and help them to identify the days in the cycle that are available for worry-free intercourse.

Are you looking for an effective, low maintenance way to avoid pregnancy?

“Working with Brittany was a total game changer for me. I had a very basic understanding of fertility, but not necessarily how it related to me and my cycle. She made me feel completely comfortable asking questions and through working together, I now feel so competent understanding and tracking my cycle. I feel in tune with my body’s natural rhythms, and I share so much appreciation for Brittany in helping me get there!”— Carrie

You’re currently avoiding pregnancy

While the Billings Method can be used to help optimize your chances of conceiving a pregnancy, I work with women and couples who are looking for an effective way to avoid pregnancy, either temporarily or permanently. Brief instructions for achieving pregnancy are included in the course so you have that information if or when your fertility goals change.

You aren’t on birth control

Your observations will be obscured by the use of hormonal contraception or IUDs, and you simply won't get your money's worth out of working with me! I can begin teaching you the day you discontinue your birth control.

You are OK with abstaining initially

In order to establish your basic infertile pattern, it's necessary for you to abstain from all genital contact for the first 2-4 weeks of charting, depending on your cycle pattern. Following this guidance allows you to more quickly identify your fertile vs infertile patterns.

FAQs

  • If you’d like to take the Billings Introduction class only, the investment is $40. This is a live, 1:1 class that takes place on Google Meet. I periodically offer pay-what-you-can group classes as well.

    To work with me on a longer term basis, there is a one time investment of $300. This includes three live class sessions where you will learn and review the Billings Ovulation Method; unlimited follow-up meetings until you become autonomous in your charting; unlimited text/email support until you reach autonomy, or until 6 months have passed (whichever is later); educational materials delivered to you via email. Postpartum clients will participate in periodic follow-ups until fertility has returned + 3 cycles.

    Note: If you take an intro class with me and then move on to the full course, you will receive a discount code covering the cost of your intro class to apply toward the $300 investment.

    Interest-free, 3 month payment plans are also available on request. Please email brittany@learnyourcycle.com for more information.

  • Are you interested in learning the Billings Ovulation Method, but not ready to commit to a full course right now?

    Or perhaps you're already an experienced charter in another method and are looking to expand your knowledge of cervical mucus charting.

    If either of these situations apply, the Billings Introductory Session will be perfect for you! The course includes the following:

    • Brief history of the Billings Ovulation Method⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

    • Introduction to the female and male reproductive systems⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

    This course will teach you the entire set of instructions to use the Billings Ovulation Method. However, the 98-99% efficacy rate of this method depends on adequate follow ups with an Accredited Teacher.

    If you participate in this intro course, you will receive a credit toward the full 1:1 course, should you decide to pursue follow-up with me.

  • The use of barrier methods such as condoms is considered a departure from the authentic Billings Ovulation Method. As your Billings instructor, I am obligated to recommend that you avoid using barriers because they may disrupt your pattern of discharge and confuse your observations.  That said, I have worked with many clients who make the informed choice to use barriers. I have no moral objection to barriers and am happy to meet people where they're at. I believe it’s possible to have a successful charting experience even if you aren’t a “perfect” charter - you just need to understand how certain decisions may affect your observation and your overall effectiveness at avoiding pregnancy.

    You and your partner are in the driver's seat when it comes to your decisions around managing fertility!

  • Spermicides will completely disrupt your observations, often for several days. For this reason, I will say that Billings (or any method that involves charting discharge observations) is not for you, if you plan to use spermicides as part of your pregnancy prevention strategy. These include N-9, Caya Gel, Contragel, Phexxi, and other similar products.
