Every pregnancy and every pregnancy-related conflict is a very personal and sensitive situation. With this in mind, our goal is to provide each woman with the best possible advice and support for her unique situation. The vast majority of women are satisfied with Profemina.
Some outsiders criticize that Profemina does not issue counseling certificates in Germany. However, the pregnant women themselves appreciate Profemina’s service as a free, tailored, and accessible help option.
