i got this from a website about natural family planning method and it's called the standard days method.
here goes: ===================
The Standard Days Method (SDM) is a new method of Natural Family Planning (NFP) developed by the Institute for Reproductive Health at Georgetown University. SDM is 95% effective when used correctly. The 95% means that 5 out of 100 women practicing this method correctly for one year will get pregnant. The effectiveness of any method of NFP varies from couple to couple. All NFP methods are significantly less effective for couples who do not follow the method closely.
SDM works for women with menstrual cycles from 26 to 32 days long. To use the method, couples abstain from sexual intercourse on days 8 through 19 of the woman's menstrual cycle. If a woman has more than one cycle per year that is shorter than 26 days, or longer than 32 days, the method effectiveness decreases significantly and a different method of NFP should be used.
Using the Standard Days Method:
On any ordinary calendar, mark the day when your period first begins as Day 1 and circle it. Then mark the same day of the week, one week later, as Day 8 and circle it. Count forward to Day 19 and circle it. Draw a solid line through days 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, and 19. For these twelve days (days 8 through 19), abstain from all sexual intercourse, if you wish to avoid conception.
Day 8 through day 19 are days of increased fertility and increased chance of conception. Abstain from sexual intercourse on days 8 through 19 in order to avoid conception.
All other days within each cycle present a low risk of conception. You do not need to abstain from sexual intercourse on days 1 through 7, nor on day 20 through the end of each cycle.
When your next period begins, mark that day as Day 1 of the next cycle. Then go back to the previous cycle on the calendar and count the total number of days in the previous cycle.
Put a square around the total number of days for each cycle. So if a cycle was 30 days long, the last day will be marked 30. Keep these calendar pages, so that you have a record of how long each cycle was. Only one cycle per year can be less than 26 days, or more than 32 days.
If more than one cycle per year was shorter than 26 days or longer than 32 days, use a different method of Natural Family Planning.
