When we were engaged, my future husband suggested we check out Serena method of Natural Family Planning. I was impressed with both my future husband and the method. It was in “tune” with our faith, it was natural and didn’t rely on pills or chemicals, and it wasn’t just the female’s “problem”. It also promoted a courtship honeymoon relationship that coincided with every month’s cycle.
I found that it was great to know my body and the relationship between the cycle and my emotions. Our teacher couple was very supportive while we were learning about the method and was able to answer many questions from us. After we were married, and had used the method for about a year, we were asked to consider becoming a teacher couple. We were open to do so, and took the training and the exam to become a certified teacher couple. We were grateful for the extra knowledge and also the fellowship with, and the support from, other teacher couples.
We’re also grateful to Serena for the organizational support they provide at both the provincial and national levels. As well, Serena also has a tremendous amount of medical knowledge that serves as the foundation for the method.
Natural family planning through Serena has been very beneficial to our marriage as a way of life and by helping us avoid as well as achieve pregnancies, assisting us through breastfeeding periods, and through pre-menopause. We highly recommend it to anyone seeking a natural way to plan their family.

I had a very difficult experience of perimenopause that spanned about a decade, and the pill caused multiple symptoms, including extreme mood swings and breast pain. When I finally sought the help of Serena, they connected me to a husband and wife team who were incredibly patient, thorough, and caring.
