Historical February 1976 event notice and quoted pamphlet description; not current medical advice.
The Aware Center from Clayton is giving a free lecture on Tuesday, February 10th at 8:00 p.m. in the large parlor at Grace Methodist, Waterman and Skinker.
The Aware Center is exclusively devoted to providing information about and consultation in the use of the Ovulation Method of family planning. This method of determining when the event of ovulation is about to take place is not the same as the rhythm method of birth control, according to the Aware Center pamphlet, “What Every Woman Should Know About Herself.” “The rhythm method was based upon the generalized experience of the event of ovulation in many women’s cycles; in other words, the ‘law of averages.’ But no woman is really an ‘average’ woman; every woman is an unique individual and her body follows its own unique pattern. The Ovulation Method allows for this individuality.”
In addition to the Tuesday evening lecture at Grace, the Aware Center gives free lectures every Wednesday evening at 8:00 p.m. at 118 N. Meramec St. In Clayton.
There is no charge for any of the lectures. There is a $2.00 charge for the booklet and chart for personal record and this fee includes any number of consultations with the doctors on the Aware staff.
