At MyCatholicDoctor, we are committed to providing compassionate, faith-filled care for couples struggling with infertility. Guided by the teachings of the Catholic Church, we embrace Restorative Reproductive Medicine (RRM) as a way to address the root causes of infertility while respecting the sanctity of life and the dignity of marriage.

Our clinicians take the time to meet with you to understand your background, fears, and hopes for your family. The average length of an appointment with a clinician and patient is 60 minutes, but if there is more to be discussed, they are happy to work with you to answer your questions and provide hope for your future.

RRM encompasses a variety of methods, with some of the most well-known being medical approaches rooted in fertility awareness models, such as the Billings Ovulation Method, Naprotechnology (based on the Creighton Model), and FEMM (Fertility Education and Medical Management). These methods go beyond basic fertility tracking — they use scientifically validated protocols to collect detailed data about a woman’s cycle, providing medical professionals with critical insights into hormonal patterns, ovulation quality, and potential reproductive disorders.

By combining advanced charting techniques with targeted medical testing and treatments, RRM enables clinicians to identify and address the root causes of infertility — such as hormonal imbalances, structural abnormalities, or infections — ultimately supporting natural conception and healthy pregnancy.

Our clinicians, trained in Restorative Reproductive Medicine, use evidence-based methods to diagnose and treat a variety of issues that may be affecting fertility, including:

Diagnoses that can be helped with Restorative Reproductive Medicine include:

◻️  Irregular Cycles

◻️  Premenstrual Syndrome

◻️  Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS)

◻️  Endometriosis 

◻️  Ovarian Cysts

◻️  Hormonal Abnormalities 

◻️  Infertility (male and female)

◻️  Miscarriage

◻️  Premature Birth

◻️  Postpartum Depression

Through careful observation of a woman’s cycle and targeted medical interventions, we strive to bring the body back into balance, fostering an environment where natural conception can occur.

Studies show that RRM is not only ethically sound but also effective. Research indicates that couples using RRM to treat infertility have experienced live birth rates as high as 40.4% per treatment cycle — higher than many artificial reproductive technologies (Preprints.org). Moreover, these pregnancies tend to have lower rates of complications, such as preterm births and multiple gestations, reflecting the health benefits of aligning medical care with the body’s natural rhythms (MedRxiv.org).

One study even found that 61.5% of couples who had not previously used IVF achieved successful pregnancies through RRM, demonstrating the power of a restorative approach (IIRRM.org).

We understand that comprehensive fertility care involves both medical and logistical support. If lab work or imaging is necessary, we will work with you to find a lab closest to your location. Our team will send you the required lab orders, which you can bring to your chosen facility. Once completed, the results will be sent directly to your provider for analysis, followed by a scheduled appointment to discuss the findings.

If your care plan includes prescriptions or supplements based on lab results and lifestyle factors, our doctors can send prescriptions to the pharmacy of your choice. They will also provide trusted recommendations for high-quality supplement brands.

For patients requiring in-person care, some of our providers offer appointments at their physical offices. If you are outside their practice area, we will make every effort to refer you to a local physician we trust. Additionally, if surgical intervention is indicated as part of your Restorative Reproductive Medicine care, we have a skilled RRM surgeon available or can refer you to a qualified local surgeon, ensuring you receive the care you need.
