Natural Procreativ Technology – A mulitifunctional approach to the chronic problem of infertility

Description: Infertility is usually a consequence of multiple chronic conditions rather than a single acute condition. We propose that it is erroneous to apply acute medical interventions to a condition that is chronic in nature. Method: Retrospective analysis of 3 case studies which demonstrate the multifactorial and chronic nature of infertility that were previously managed unsuccessfully with acute intervention using IVF (in Vitro Fertilisation) or ART (Assisted Reproductive Technology). Results: Demonstration of the multifactorial approach and 3 successful singleton live births using NPT (Natural Procreative Technology or NaProTechnology). Conclusion: Infertility can be treated successfully with a multifactorial approach which takes into account the chronic nature of infertility and targets treatment to manage multiple factors responsible for the condition. Discussion: Infertility is not a diagnosis but is often the expression of several underlying ill health conditions which if diagnosed and treated correctly will result in restoration of normal reproductive function. Physicians ought to consider broader diagnostic possibilities in their evaluation of infertile couples. A multifactorial treatment strategy for the chronic condition of infertility may be more effective than the widespread acute strategy employed by ART. Further study is required to investigate this possibility in more detail. Future studies looking at NPT and ART outcomes must be cohort studies comparing populations with similar patient characteristics.
