NFP - A freeware program for tracking fertility, known as the Sympto-thermal Method, Fertility Awareness Method, Natural Family Planning, or Ovulation Method.
NFP is a program designed for Palm OS that allows a woman or a couple to track her fertility using a set of simple daily measurements.
NFP can be used either to avoid or achieve pregnancy.
It can be an effective chemical-free method of contraception, or it can be an inexpensive method of conception.
