2.0 out of 5 starsAuthor eliminates information about how Rx drugs affect cycle; critical!
By Carrot Garden on March 16, 2016
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
I own and have read both the 10th anniversary edition and this one. I am very disappointed in the author of this edition because, rather than expanding the information on how prescription drugs affect a woman's cycle, fertility, and period, she completely left it out and ignored it like it doesn't even exist. As a woman who used to take a medication that wrecked my charts and caused vertical zig-zag patterns not even mentioned in the book, I have to say that it seems like Toni is trying to avoid getting in trouble with Pharma. So many women these days seem to use one form or another of medication, and almost all of them interfere with your cycle in some way, so this is pretty big info that she left out. I would have liked to see her expand on it.

Sorry Toni, but if you are truly interested in helping a woman take charge of her cycle, you should have left in your drug table that correlates which drug causes which cycle problem. In fact, you should have expanded the table and devoted a whole chapter to it. I would have liked to have seen some example charts of woman who take various common Rx drugs and what their temps did. This would have saved me 6 months of despair, worry, and anger from not knowing what was going on.

Ladies who are on a Rx drug, order the older book, at least the author briefly addresses how the Rx will affect your cycle.

5.0 out of 5 starsA must read for all women!
By Amazon Customer on July 14, 2015
Format: Paperback
I learned so much from reading this book! The previous edition was referred to in my circles as "the magic book" because it helped so many people conceive. The new edition covers significantly more material than the previous one, and I believe the title of this book is too limiting for all the info inside. THIS BOOK IS ABOUT SO MUCH MORE THAN FERTILITY! It's an important, practical reference about women's bodies that should be required reading for all women. This book helps readers understand women's cycle and changes that happen to women throughout each month, and over the years. It has helped me feel 'normal' and understand that 'normal' is a range of body types and timeframes. There are also sections about sex and even the elusive g-spot. I can not recommend this book enough, whether you are seeking fertility help or not.

Every woman should read this book at some point in their life. Why they don't teach this in high school or why more doctors don't advocate this is beyond me. Worth every penny.

By Riss on August 21, 2015
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
Such an informative book and a great read!! The first day I got this, I read through the first 100 (1/5 of the book) with no issue. Very helpful for the Fertility Awareness Method. The author is clearly very dedicated to the subject.

Great book that explains everything you need to know about anything relating to the NFP method. I own this in digital and print and I will say that it is much worse in digital though. I can not use that version.

By K. Cleary on August 15, 2015
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
What a wealth of information! I'm barely one month into charting and I feel as if a whole world of understanding and self-awareness has opened up to me. For decades I have noticed vague patterns with mood, appetite, energy, libido, fatigue, mental fog, and now I can definitively link them all to my fertility cycle. Not to mention, I can confidently know when I am fertile and infertile. This book clearly outlines how to use you own body's clues to understand your fertility. No more stress over whether I migh be at risk for an unwanted pregnancy!

5.0 out of 5 starsUsing this meathod as a double protection.
By Nellytorba on December 29, 2015
Format: Kindle Edition Verified Purchase
This book changed my Life!!! When I came to the realization that, even though I have an IUD (paragaurd), I still have a slight chance of getting pregnant, just like any other type of birth control, I started looking around for how I can prevent it and came across this FAM meathod so looked up the book and bought it that same day. I still have my Paragaurd but we use this method as a backup or "double the protection" on my most fertile days. Highly recommend this book to every woman!!!

By Stephanie L. on June 23, 2016
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
This book is great for an overall in depth view of the female cycle. Great for if you're trying to conceive, having cycle or hormonal problems, or using that birth control method where you track your cycle and don't have sex when fertile (not sure what it's really called). It's a bit more than I bargained for and after skimming through it I am returning it, but that's because it's more book than I need. In my case of TTC, I haven't really started yet. If I was having problems TTC I would definitely read this religiously, but all the charting stuff seems like a bit much for me just starting out. It is all about charting and I won't take away stars simply because it's more than what I need. It really is a great book from the pieces I've read and I will recommend it to friends with cycle problems or those struggling to conceive.
