Amazon.com Review
This comprehensive book explains in lucid, assured terms how to practice the fertility awareness method (FAM), a natural, scientifically proven but little-known form of birth control (which is not to be confused with the woefully ineffective "rhythm" method). Author Toni Weschler has been teaching fertility awareness for almost 20 years, and it's only just now gaining in popularity. As the book explains, by using simple fertility signs including peaks in morning body temperature and changes in cervical position and cervical mucus, it's possible to determine when ovulation is taking place. Fertility awareness is therefore useful for not only couples who are trying to conceive, but for those who are aiming to avoid pregnancy without the use of chemical contraceptives. It will be of special interest to those women who have suffered from infertility; many FAM practitioners have told the author that by filling in the detailed charts in the book, they've realized that they were chronically miscarrying, even when their doctors told them they weren't conceiving at all. As the book explains, by charting body temperature, it's simple to tell when pregnancy has occurred--and when there's danger of miscarriage. Taking Charge of Your Fertility also explains how to choose the sex of your baby by timing intercourse according to certain fertility signs. It also features thorough, easy-to-understand explanations of hormones, the menstrual cycle, and menopause, along with fertility tests and treatments and their long- and short-term side effects, plus a topnotch resource section. Recommended for any woman who wants to better understand her body. --Erica Jorgensen

How little I knew before August 27, 2010
J. Boyter (Jacksonville, FL)
I'm so glad this book was recommended to me! It really details how little women are taught about their own bodies. Reading this book was enlightening, and it's sure to have a permanent place on my bookshelf for future reference!
A book every woman should read August 24, 2010

My gynecologist recommended me this book as a contraception method.... but I am amazed how I've been living all this years without knowing all what happend in my own body. Great book!
 I agree with other 3 star reviews August 18, 2010

Great information for figuring out if you are fertile and timing intercourse during these times, not useful if you already know you are infertile or can't carry a pregnancy.
EVERY Woman should read this August 10, 2010

I first read this at the library and liked it so much I bought a copy. Really helps you understand your fertility and cycle. Great for reference. Every woman should read it.
Very Informative August 9, 2010

This book gave me a better understanding of the signs that our body naturally produces to indicate fertility. I feel calmer because I can tell that my body is doing what it needs to do in order to conceive.
