This is how it works:
The program consists of 4 pre-recorded classes (1 class per month). Each recording will be available for 30 days.
- In session one, you’ll learn to chart cervical mucus.
- In session two you’ll learn test the LH surge.
- In session three, you’ll learn chart your body basal temperature.

You’ll learn to identify different fertility biomarkers in your cycle from the first class, which you’ll chart every day using a paper chart, and the “Read Your Body” app.
I’ll meet privately with you once between sessions to check your chart, give you feedback, answer your questions, and fix mistakes on the go. We’ll also assess if you need help with your reproductive health in these sessions.

Meet your guide
Hi! I’m Carmen, a Menstrual Educator and Fertility Awareness Instructor trained in the FEMM protocol.
Six years ago, looking for a holistic way to treat PCOS, I discovered the world of Menstrual Cycle Awareness. I finally learned that the cycle is an incredible feedback tool that gives us important clues about our physical, mental, and emotional health. This was a life-changing discovery, and I immediately felt called to become a Fertility Awareness Instructor and support others on this path.
I’m here to help you deeply understand your cycle, connect with your body and make empowered decisions about your reproductive health.
My approach is humane and secular, and I offer programs in Spanish and English.
I would love to support you in this process!
What my clients say:
“This program was educational and practical at the same time; it gave me the confidence to follow my fertility signs and avoid pregnancy in the most natural way I can imagine. I feel so much more connected to my body and I truly think that this information should be shared with everyone, especially if you feel that all you know about your cycle is that you bleed. Carmen as trainer was professional, giving a lot of space, letting this experience be your experience and delivering the best value for the investment”.
“I got to know Carmen due to her activities online about menstrual awareness. I was curious at first to learn something new about my body, and I discovered a passionate and empathic professional. My learning journey with Carmen has been interesting and enriching. I’m more aware of my body, and I can read more about what is happening during my cycle. The journey is not finished yet, and I can’t wait to continue exploring with Carmen’s wise guidance”.
“Carmen’s coaching changed how I feel about my body and my menstrual cycle. Going deep in women’s biology, nature, and feminine energy taught me how to listen to and understand my body and soul better in the different phases of the never-ending cycle of ours. Thanks to Carmen, I am perfectly happy with my imperfect body, and I now have the tools to face the challenges of everyday life.”
“The coaching with Carmen helped me in many ways. I learnt many things about my cycle and the way you can observe and interpret it. The sessions were also moments to come closer to myself, to be gentle with myself and make plans for treating myself even better in the future —I finally learnt to embrace my cycle fully. I am very grateful for the process we did together and I would recommend every woman to do the same journey!”
“My 6-month coaching journey with Carmen was transformational. During our sessions, she provided me with so many useful tools, mind opening concepts and healing clarity. I loved her clear communication, sincere compassion and willingness to help. I warmly recommend her services to any woman who is looking for their own personal next level and deeper connection. Carmen will surely guide you there!”
FAQ’s
Chart your cycle is the right program for you if you:
- Are interested in knowing and understanding your cycle, how it works, and how it impacts your overall health.
- Are looking for a natural birth control method, free of synthetic hormones & side effects, or
- Are looking to conceive naturally.
- Are willing to invest time and energy in learning the method, understanding that you cannot rely on it as your birth control method for at least three ovulatory cycles. (This may vary from one person to another, depending on their cycle patterns. I’ll guide you on this process).
- Have irregular cycles due to PCOS, endometriosis, or other conditions.
- Are in a relationship, single, or not sexually active. FAM is a tool to understand your cycle and your body beyond reproduction.
This program is not for you if:
- You are in need of an immediate solution for birth control.
- The current situation of your life makes it difficult for you to observe and chart your biomarkers.
- Using barrier methods or other safe practices while learning to use the FEMM method is not an option for you.
- You’re in the postpartum and have not seen a return in your fertility (you’d need a special guidance for this which is beyond the scope of this program).
- You’re using any form of hormonal birth control.
- Be aware that drinking alcohol or using drugs regularly can alter your biomarkers.
I’m trained in the FEMM protocol. FEMM is a Fertility Awareness-based method that combines cervical mucus observations and urinary test strips to measure the presence or absence of the Luteinizing Hormone. In addition, my program includes a session on basal body temperature, which is an important biomarker that allows you to confirm ovulation in your cycle.
When you take hormonal birth control, you replace your reproductive hormones with synthetic ones; in other words, you are not experiencing a natural menstrual cycle. The information in this program can still be helpful, but it won’t be applicable in the same way, as you are not cycling naturally.
This program is not you if you are postpartum and haven’t seen a return in your fertility, as this requires a particular type of support. If your cycles have returned after childbirth, you can take it.
Absolutely! FAM is a tool to educate yourself and understand your hormonal health. If you have irregular cycles due to PCOS or other disorders, you will benefit significantly from it as it can help you understand the root cause of your imbalance. Keep in mind that it may take you a little longer to learn it and use it as your birth control method.
