Background: Fertility awareness-based methods (FABM) of family planning have increased in popularity in recent years. The effectiveness of various methods can vary substantially and can be user dependent. For various reasons, there is a bias in OBGYN physicians against the use of FABMs for family planning. However, once educated about the methods of FABMs, this bias improves. There is limited regarding the education dedicated to FABM use in residency. We hypothesized that the residency education obtained regarding FABMs would be insufficient in preparing resident OBGYNs in effectively counseling patients regarding FABMs.  Methods: a 16-question survey was created via SurveyMonkey and was sent to all ACGME accredited OBGYN residency programs for distribution to current residents. The survey was administered from October 2023 to December 2023.  Results: 125 responses were collected. Less than 40% of residents received formal training in regards to FABMs. Respondents indicated they felt most comfortable describing the calendar method to patients (68% respondents agree or strongly agree when queried if they could describe the method). 79.5% of respondents could not describe mucus-only, hormone monitoring, or sympto-thermal methods of family planning. When questioned if they were prepared to counsel postpartum patients who refused contraception regarding FABM, 58% of respondents indicated they could not assist their patients.  Conclusions: Despite increased use in recent years and multiple options for FABM use, resident education in the application and use of FABMs is lacking. Additionally, residents indicated they are most familiar with the least effective methods (calendar method) which would likely be a significant detriment to their patients.
