MEDICAL MANAGEMENT FOR INFERTILITY
FERTILITY EDUCATION & MEDICAL MANAGEMENT (FEMM)
"FEMM is another type of Restorative Reproductive Medicine.
It is a specific way to treat reproductive and endocrine disorders in women’s reproductive abnormalities and includes specific approaches to diagnosis and treatment of the underlying condition.
With FEMM, women are taught how to monitor their hormones throughout their menstrual cycle... Not only can FEMM help couples to avoid or achieve pregnancy, but it is also useful in correcting women’s health problems. Symptoms that are indicative of an underlying diagnosis are able to be treated with the appropriate treatment options." - MyCatholicDoctor.com
