General Clarifications<\/b><\/h3>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Learning FAM is a personal choice and its use and implementation stem from the personal desire and decision to take control and responsibility for one\u2019s sexual health and fertility management.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">FAM is a tool and method for identifying the fertile and infertile days of the menstrual cycle. It is most often used as contraception but also for achieving pregnancy and for overall body awareness. FAM reduces dependence on other contraceptive methods; it does not eliminate or exclude the use of additional methods if and when a couple wants to have sex during the fertile and pre-fertile days of the cycle.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While FAM has the potential to reach a nearly 100% effectiveness rate, actual user effectiveness is not a guaranteed statistic; it is determined by the user\u2019s understanding of how the method works, the quality of her fertility charts, and the degree to which the client implements the method rules correctly and consistently (see <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/poriutivit.com\/staging2\/en\/fam\/contraceptive-effectiveness-sympto-thermal-methods-stm-2021\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">article<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">No method of contraception is 100% (except for abstinence) and FAM is not a \u201cstand-alone\u201d method. This means that couples who want to maximize the days of \u201csexual freedom\u201d during the cycle, understand that the use of <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/poriutivit.com\/staging2\/en\/contraception\/non-hormonal-contraceptives-to-use-with-fam\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">two, simultaneous back-up methods<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> are necessary during the fertile days (e.g. diaphragm and gel, condom and spermicide). They also understand that during the learning period (4-6 months or cycle), the use of one back-up method is necessary during the pre-fertile days of the cycle. Couples who choose to rely solely on a condom during the fertile time are at risk for an unplanned pregnancy. If a condom breaks or \u201cmalfunctions,\u201d that risk approaches 100%!\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If a client is planning to use FAM as a method of contraception, she and her partner will want to reach an agreement about the use of other methods during the fertile and pre-fertile days, <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">before the workshop begins<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> or before the client actually stops using hormonal or IUD methods.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">During the learning period (typically 3+ months or cycles), some clients will be able to rely on FAM sooner than later, though not all. This will depend on the person\u2019s hormonal status. If a client is in \u201ctransition\u201d\u00a0 e.g. just came off or about to come off hormonal birth control, post-miscarriage, post-abortion, or first postpartum cycle, more time may be needed for the body\u2019s hormonal \u201cre-set\u201d to occur and until the method rules can be safely implemented.\u00a0 FAM is a partial rather than a complete method of contraception and can be very \u201cunforgiving\u201d when used incorrectly.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">FAM does not protect against sexually-transmitted infections or diseases.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If reproductive or other health problems become known during the workshop period, the facilitator will provide all relevant guidance, referrals for diagnostic testing, feedback, and support to the client. This guidance is not a substitute for proper medical consultation, evaluation, or care.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nursing mothers are always welcome to bring their babies to the group. If there is noise or disruption, the client can mute her microphone.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li>Missed sessions: If, for whatever reason, you cannot attend one of the sessions, there are three options: make up the session missed with another group;\u00a0 request in advance that the session be recorded with the permission from other members in the group; schedule a private make-up session at an additional cost.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3><b>B. Facilitator commitment and responsibility<\/b><\/h3>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The facilitator is responsible for teaching FAM according to the highest professional standards.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">During the learning period and for a full-year following, the facilitator is responsible for providing individual follow-up (via phone, WhatsApp, text message, email, etc). Clients can expect feedback\/answers to their inquiries usually within 1-2 days and they are entitled to personal consultation and guidance.\u00a0 <\/span>This includes referrals for diagnostic tests, referrals to practitioners, counselling concerns related to fertility, sexual health, and mastering fertility charts. When the year of follow-up ends,\u00a0 the fee for any future follow up is $40 per hour.<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The facilitator is not held responsible if or when FAM is used incorrectly, which can result in an unplanned pregnancy.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The facilitator commits to working with and supporting each client.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3><b>C. Client commitment and responsibility<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The client understands that:<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Committing to the workshop means taking responsibility- to the group and to the facilitator.\u00a0 I, Michal, can only commit to follow-through when each participant does the following: a) makes a decision to attend on the dates she chooses, b) fills out the health form at least one week in advance, c) promptly confirms that she will attend after receiving the email invitation, and d) transfers the registration fee\/deposit at least one week in advance.<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">She is responsible to chart her cycles for at least two-three months before she can begin to implement the method effectively. It takes time to acquire knowledge, experience, skills, and trust. It takes at least a few months to collect personal data (through charting) and identify personal patterns based on one\u2019s fertility signs.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Motivation, commitment, and perseverance during the learning period are key factors in reaching success, in terms of both effectiveness and self-confidence.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">She is expected to take an active part in the workshop, read all learning materials, complete assignments and demonstrate her understanding of chart interpretation.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3><b>D. Client responsibility regarding workshop ethics and group process<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The client agrees to:<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Respect the rights, dignity, and privacy of each participant. Any personal history or information (including even the names of other participants) shared by someone in the group is strictly confidential.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Respect the opinions, beliefs, and choices of others. This means behaving in a civil, mature, tolerant, and polite way, even if differences arise.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Accept and recognize that each participant comes to the workshop with different experiences, needs and expectations.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Participants are:\u00a0 religious and secular; single, coupled, married, or in a same-sex relationship; they are on the spectrum of fully supporting conventional medicine together with those supporting complementary, natural medicine;\u00a0 people with and without children (by choice or by circumstance). Acceptance and respect of others helps foster group trust, openness, and safety.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Decision-making about self-disclosure: There is no requirement to share intimate, personal information in the workshop. Each participant is free to share what is comfortable and relevant for her.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Discuss with the facilitator (one-on-one) any issue or conflict which could interfere with the group dynamic.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Protect and safeguard all materials received during the workshop. All written and visual materials (including handouts, charts, presentations, etc.) used in the workshop are for personal, private use only and are not to be modified in any way, copied, photographed, published, or shared with others.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Respect professional boundaries: While the client has learned FAM for personal use and is welcome and encouraged to share her experiences about the workshop with others, she is not educated or trained to teach what she has learned to others. Teaching FAM to others, particularly in the framework of\u00a0 contraception, is a serious responsibility. If someone wants to teach others, they can consider pursuing <a href=\"https:\/\/poriutivit.com\/staging2\/en\/shop\/fam-teacher-training-course\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">professional training and certification<\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Be mindful of the time factor. If someone needs more time and attention around a specific issue, then it is best to schedule that time during individual follow-up with the facilitator so that the workshop schedule is not compromised.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Refresher workshop: Anyone who has completed the ten-hour workshop is welcome to repeat it, or parts of it, in the future, at no additional cost.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3><b style=\"font-size: 22px;\">E. Payment and cancellation policy\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>A workshop requires a minimum of 4-5 participants. It is unfortunate to have to cancel\/postpone a workshop when people drop out and change their mind at the last minute. Cancellations hurt my reputation and practice and hurt those who were looking forward to begin, as scheduled. To prevent situations like this, please be sure you are ready to commit before you register.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A 25% deposit\/registration fee is required to secure a space. It can be paid via PayPal, bank transfer, or a money transfer app. This sum will be subtracted from the total.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The full workshop fee can be paid in up to 4 installments. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li>If someone cancels at least a week in advance, their deposit will be fully refunded.<\/li>\n<li>If someone cancels <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">less than a week<\/span> before the workshop begins, the registration fee will not be refunded, but can be applied to a future workshop within the following 3 months.<\/li>\n<li>If someone pays in full and cancels anytime after the first session, she will receive a 60% refund. If canceling after the second session, the two sides will negotiate the refund amount.<\/li>\n<li>If for any reason I, Michal, cancel the workshop, the registration fee will be refunded in full or be applied to the next available workshop.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>I declare that I have read and understood the agreement and I agree to the conditions and terms stated herein.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">____________________________\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 __________________\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Signature <\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Date<\/span><\/p>\n<\/body>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This agreement clarifies the terms of the FAM workshops, together with the commitments and responsibilities of Michal Schonbrun (\u201cthe facilitator\u201d) and the participant (\u201cthe client\u201d).\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 A.
