Wonderfully Made Girls

This class uses a fertility appreciation program (TeenFEMM) to focus on how wonderfully God has made the human being soul and body, and how a woman’s natural fertility works. The class will form young women in the truths of the Catholic Faith through a deeper understanding of their bodies. Young women will learn the importance of valuing and protecting their God-given gift of fertility. 

teenFEMM is a knowledge-based health program for teens and young women. The women fertility cycle is an indicator of her overall health. teenFEMM classes, can help your daugther make the best choices, for life. teenFEEMM teaches them to understand and monitor hormonal and other indicators of their health.

Understanding how their bodies work, and recognizing signs of normal or abnormal hormonal activity, enables identification of common health problems, such as heavy bleeding, irregular bleeding, pain, and depression. Without knowledge about the hormonal interplay of her cycle, the ability of an adolescent and her family to make informed health decisions is hindered. Unfortunately, evidence shows that most women do not understand how their own bodies work. They lack of health literacy, or an awareness of the behaviors that affect their general and reproductive health over the course of their lives, such as adequate nutrition, exercise, and sleep. Women often experience shame and stigma surrounding menstruation, which also leads to poorer health outcomes. 

This startling reality evidences the need for the education provided by teenFEMM. A young woman equipped with the knowledge to understand her body is empowered to make the best health care decisions for herself.

In the case of health problems such as pain, PMS, acne, or mood swings, we can refer your daughter to FEMM medical professionals who can provide more accurate testing, diagnosis, and treatment by working with biological indicators provided by the patient’s own observations. teenFEMM helps young women to understand the options relevant to their desired long-term health outcomes. The knowledge gained through teenFEMM can allow adolescents, their families, and their doctors to identify underlying health concerns and treat them as soon as possible.
