1: Great informative book
I really enjoyed reading this book. I had been questioning staying on birth control pills for a while and this book helped me to comfortably come off the pill. I am still learning how to chart but knowing that I am gaining more knowledge about my body is a great experience in itself. I think too many times we rush to a doctor for pills and don't think of the harmful effects we could be doing to ourselves.
I don't mind Katie's information on the diet we eat. I think everything is up to you to decide what you want to eat or not. She is giving you the tools to make your own judgments.

2: Valuable and Educational
This book teaches the basics of female reproductive anatomy and physiology (valuable in itself), and then explains how certain signs indicate when a woman can and can't get pregnant. Fabulous! I suggest reading it well before you think you might need to use the system for either achieving or preventing pregnancy so you can learn all the signs your body is giving you. It takes a few months to see the patterns and get confident using the system.

3: very informative
This book has a lot of information! I think it will help me get in better touch with my body. I found it to be a little repetative but I think it is a necessary purchase for anyone intersted in learning about their reproductive system and fertility awareness.

4: Less info than other books
I purchased this book after reading taking charge of your fertility, and i felt like it was no where near as informative. There is a lot of non-sensical things like writing down made up stories about your ancestors fertility problems... i thought that was kind of odd. Overall there are much better books out there about fertility and cycles.

5: Using this book successfully for over six months
This book has been my goto reference for the last six months as I learned to chart my cycles. It is clearly written and the method is well explained with a lot of side-explanations and tips that I found helpful.
She covers the rules for preventing or achieving pregnancy, also during breast-feeding, menopause and for women who don't ovulate regularly. She also covers common cycle and menstrual problems and possible ways to correct or deal with these problems.
Whether you agree or not with her nutritional advice, the book offers a lot of information about female fertility. I for one agree with her about the importance of animals fats, partly because of personal experience and now more so because of emerging research.
If only they would make fertility awareness required reading for teenagers!
