ABSTRACT
In Spain the use of natural family planning (NFP) is limited. In Barcelona, CODIPLAN, an NFP planning center, has offered natural methods to potential users for a number of years. In Granada and Jaén, information provided by health professionals on fertility awareness is now gaining importance. In 1989, a seminar introduced NFP in Granada; the program has been very active since. Two courses were run for teachers and for health personnel, and we took part in the practical training of providers of alternative medical care through two programs organized by the University of Granada. We also gave talks on local radio and television programs, presented updating sessions at daycare centers, and gave health education classes at primary and secondary schools. The international seminar on NFP in March, 1992 was organized jointly by the University and the City Council. The proceedings will be published by the University of Granada. In 1990, under the scientific auspices of the Natural Family Planning Department at the Zaidin Medical Center, we started a program of training and follow-up for NFP users via an on-going seminar on NFP. In Granada and Jaén, NFP methods are now available to the general population and to health personnel.
