High-tech family planning: reproductive regulation through computerized fertility monitoring.
Issues related to family planning have profound public health significance as they directly impact individuals, couples, and families throughout the world. A new method of family planning is now available using a computerized fertility monitor that accurately measures urinary surges in estrone-3-glucuronide (E3G) and luteinizing hormone (LH) prior to ovulation, thus identifying the short-lived fertile phase of the cycle and providing women with the choice to achieve or avoid conception. As well as ease of use and instruction, hand-held computerized fertility monitors are accurate and effective and can be used indefinitely. An algorithm for computerized monitoring is presented for use in situations of infrequent or irregular ovulation such as with polycystic ovarian syndrome and the post-partum period. Hormone-based fertility monitoring is compared to other computerized fertility monitoring techniques. A case series of seven reports reflecting varied clinical backgrounds and medical histories demonstrates broad-based success and high satisfaction with computerized monitoring for regulation of reproductive potential. Limitations of fertility monitoring are also discussed.
