The dissertation makes a contribution to the history of contraception by showing the interplay of scientific, religious, public administrative, and other groups in the development and dissemination of natural birth control.. The project will examine in particular the process whereby the current notion of the woman's time of evaluation was established and applied to the development of birth control methods, especially rhythm methods. This study will, for the first time, trace the steps of the process that led from work done in European, Japanese, and American laboratories to its social impact. It will take into account the interplay of the various agents involved (researchers, medical practitioners, government, and religious authorities), showing how their different values (professional, moral, religious, and ideological) have interacted. Further, the research takes up religious differences as they are reflected in national differences, between a Roman Catholic dominated state and one where separation of church and state is rhetorically important but does not describe politics as practiced.

本论文通过展示科学，宗教，公共行政和其他团体在自然节育的发展和传播中的相互作用，为避孕史做出了贡献。 该项目将特别审查目前妇女评估时间概念的确立过程，并将其应用于制定计划生育方法，特别是安全期方法。 这项研究将首次追踪从欧洲、日本和美国实验室所做工作到其社会影响的过程步骤。 它将考虑到所涉及的各种代理人（研究人员，医生，政府和宗教当局）的相互作用，显示他们的不同价值观（专业，道德，宗教和意识形态）如何相互作用。 此外，研究采取了宗教差异，因为它们反映在国家差异，在罗马天主教占主导地位的国家和一个政教分离是至关重要的，但不描述政治的实践。
