Amazon.com Review:
This comprehensive book explains in lucid, assured terms howto practice the fertility awareness method (FAM), a natural,scientifically proven but little-known form of birth control (which isnot to be confused with the woefully ineffective'rhythm' method). Author Toni Weschler has been teachingfertility awareness for almost 20 years, and it's only just nowgaining in popularity. As the book explains, by using simple fertilitysigns including peaks in morning body temperature and changes incervical position and cervical mucus, it's possible to determine whenovulation is taking place. Fertility awareness is therefore useful fornot only couples who are trying to conceive, but for those who areaiming to avoid pregnancy without the use of chemicalcontraceptives. It will be of special interest to those women who havesuffered from infertility; many FAM practitioners have told the authorthat by filling in the detailed charts in the book, they've realizedthat they were chronically miscarrying, even when their doctors toldthem they weren't conceiving at all. As the book explains, by chartingbody temperature, it's simple to tell when pregnancy has occurred--andwhen there's danger of miscarriage. Taking Charge of YourFertility also explains how to choose the sex of your baby bytiming intercourse according to certain fertility signs. It alsofeatures thorough, easy-to-understand explanations of hormones, themenstrual cycle, and menopause, along with fertility tests andtreatments and their long- and short-term side effects, plus atopnotch resource section. Recommended for any woman who wants tobetter understand her body. --Erica Jorgensen

Rating: - Awesome!
This book changed my life, making me a happier and more empowered womyn.And my sex life was much better when I stopped fearing my fertility as much.
Rating: - Empowers women to better understand themselves
Easy to understand, very informative and much more detailed than any other book on the subject that I've come across. We used this method as our form of birth control for 2 years effectively. When we were ready to conceive, the information in this book as well as in Choosing the Sex of Your Baby helped us conceive in a matter of a few months and we now have a 10 month old son, thanks in part to this book :).
Rating: - Great reference
This book is a great educational tool.Even if you do not want to practice FAM, it educates a woman on her body beyond what you will get in any biology class.Definitely a must have.
Rating: - The Bible of Fertility Awareness
Considered the "Bible" of Fertility Awareness (FAM), this book is a real eye-opener for women and girls of all ages. The information about our bodies that is contained in this book is invaluable, and should really be taught to every girl approaching puberty (or sooner!). You will wonder why you weren't taught/didn't know the secrets that your body shares with you every month or so during different steps in your fertility cycles. Do you realize that the "due dates" doctors project for their pregnant ... Read More
Rating:  - Didn't know that I didn't know.
This is a great comprehensive book!I learned a lot of information about my body that I was unaware that I didn't know.Why isn't this anatomy information taught in high school health?
