Very informative!

I honestly didn't quite know how the reproductive system worked. It was very easy to read and gave great illustrations. I recommend this book highly because taking pills for birth control is very toxic to your body!
Easy to understand and informative . . . a must for any woman!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
This book clearly and accurately describes the natural changes that a woman's body goes through during her fertility cycle. In language that is easy to understand, the author (who is a nurse) describes each phase and its corresponding symptoms in clear, plain English. While there is a lot of information, it is a thin book that is easily read in one sitting. I refer to it often and find more things explained to me each time I read it. I have no doubt that after reading this book, I can confidently and accurately track my fertility, and I'm sure anyone else can, too. I bought this when I went off the pill, and no other book compares. It is a must-have for any woman of child-bearing years. I wish I would have known about this book before I messed up my body by being on the pill . . . it took MONTHS to get back on track. But this book was a Godsend in helping me to understand my body, which is the most important thing.
Informational Page-Turner!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
This book was a fantastic read! Not only did it describe and show you how to chart your signs of fertility it also went into great detail on how both the female and male reproduction system works, therefore making your own fertility signs make sense to you, rather than just charting and guessing on signs. This book addressed the Natural Family Planning method as well as the Fertility Awareness Method. It was written from a strictly informational point of view and doesn't try to shove any religious motive on you for trying the NFP method. Also, they include many examples to help you learn how to use the charting system and also include a blank chart for you to copy and use. I would highly recommend this book to anyone either considering using NFP or FAM or even to just become more aware of the way their body works! Excellent, excellent book.
Simple, clear book
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
This was the first book I got when I began learning about natural fertility methods. I'm glad I picked it up because it explained the method in a way that didn't seem daunting. It was good at explaining something so complicated as fertility in a clear, concise manner. I would recommend this as a book to get you started on learning about the natural fertility methods but I recommend even more highly, "Taking Charge of Your Fertility."
Easy way to say goodbye to "The Pill"
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
Using mucus readings, your basal body temperature and simply following your period, you can lay aside "the Pill" and embrace the intelligence of your fertile body. My favorite discovery from the book is knowlege about reading your vaginal discharge. Before, I had no idea that this discharge was linked to fertility and infertility. I let my partner read it as well to help him get involved in our natural birth control method. This book is for naturally planning and avoiding a pregnancy. The details are clear, concise and easy to follow.You'll want a copy of this on your bookshelf for furture reference. I would recommend a copy for teenagers as well since birth control is usually thrown upon sexually active minors. This book will encourage a young lady, whether on the pill or not, to understand and appreciate the fertility signals coming from her body.
