Your charts will be a concrete record of your body's unique expression of its fertility. Whether you use the Justisse Method chart for health record of menstruation and ovulation, as a means for self awareness, or a means for avoiding or achieving pregnancy careful and accurate charting is important for developing confidence in the method and for your success in a achieving your intentions for the method.
There are two kinds of mucus you may observe, Peak type and Non Peak type mucus. All mucus is fertile. It is important to understand the differences between the two types of mucus for charting and interpretation purposes. For easy reference, the definitions for Peak type and Non Peak type mucus are printed on the inside of your Justisse Method chart.
Peak mucus is cervical mucus. Peak mucus is clear, stretchy, or lubricative.
Non-peak mucus is a combination of cervical mucus and vaginal cell slough. Non Peak mucus is NOT clear, stretchy, or lubricative.
