Supplies
The Marquette Method is primarily a hormonal monitoring method, using the Clearblue Fertility Monitor to track changes in women’s hormones throughout each menstrual cycle. The Marquette Method has effective instructions for using alternative markers of fertility which don’t require the use of the Clearblue Fertility Monitor, including mucus, temperature, and LH strips. These options will be mentioned in the Intro Session. The Marquette Method can be personalized to your unique budget and stage of fertility.
