good book October 11, 2008
good book for general information woman's personal health and cycle related issues and must reading for any woman. recommended.
 Very helpful after 4 years of trying October 5, 2008
This book has so much info in it, it borders on overwhelming. But I learned so much about my own situation after only 1 month of using the methods described. I am now armed with evidence and questions for my OB/GYN, and am confident that a pregnancy may happen within the next 6 months, now that my doctor and I can be pointed in the right direction. I recommend this book to any woman questioning whether her cycles are "normal" and has had problems getting pregnant.
Conceived after fertility problems using this book!!! September 19, 2008

The reason I have a beautiful baby girl is because of this book! I got pregnant the first time I ovulated in 4 months because I knew what to look for!
This is a must read for every woman, not just ones trying to get pregnant. Knowledge is power, take power over your body!! Most of us have no clue about the intricacies of how our bodies work. Health class taught us the bare basics. This book explains the beautiful symphony of our bodies, and how everything works together. It was truly amazing how little I knew. This should be a text book for health class!
After a cyst on my left ovary, I started having very long cycles - 45 days. This book explained what was happening to my body. I was able to chart my temperatures, see I wasn't ovulating, and advocate for my self with a fertility specialist. I only ovulated 4 months out of 10! I didn't have to argue how I knew, I had proof. He accepted it immediately and was willing to start running tests even though we had been trying to get pregnant for less than a year.
Most doctors require that you try for a year, no matter what. That is because most women can't prove that they know that something is wrong. I was able to show that I was experiencing a real problem.
Amazingly, a week later, I ovulated for the first time in 4 months, and we got pregnant! We didn't even need the tests or medical help. Because of this book I was able to recognize that I was ovulating, and take advantage of it at the right time.
Thank you, Toni, for the new respect I have for my self and my body, the knowledge and ability to advocate for myself, and for my beautiful baby. This book changed my life!
Must read September 16, 2008
A friend recommended this book to me. I owe her one. This book simply tells you everything you need to know about your fertility cycle. Whether your interest is in becoming pregnant, or avoiding it, this book will answer all of your questions. It is very clearly and concisely written, while using all of the necessary medical terminology. It is very easy to understand because it uses real-life examples throughout. I think that the information in this book is necessary if you are trying to become pregnant and I will recommend to all of my friends.
Amazing book!! September 15, 2008
If you are into natural/holistic things, or just want to know more about the female body, this book is definitely a Must Have! I purchased the book at the recommendation from a few friends that are into holistic things and I am very very happy that I bought it. If I ever have a girl, I want my daughter to know everything in the book because it teaches you things that should be second nature about your body (I might even teach my son a few things that are good for him to know about the female body). Some people rely on doctor's to tell them what is wrong, but doctors should be used as an expansion of your knowledge and they should not know your body better than you do. So whether you are trying to get pregnant, trying to avoid pregnancy, or just want to know what goes on in your body from cycle-to-cycle, this book is definitely something to look into.
