This book gives specific instruction on the use of two methods of family planning: Natural Family Planning and Fertility Awareness Method.
These methods give couples natural choices: • To avoid pregnancy, you can determine when you are infertile and have sexual intercourse without conceiving. • To become pregnant, you can track the days of the month when you are most fertile and have intercourse when you are most likely to conceive. • These safe non-invasive techniques can be used by themselves or combined with other contraception methods. • The techniques are noninvasive, have no side effects and carry no danger of toxic infection or cancer.
The authors, experts in fertility awareness, have completely revised and updated this newly titled edition of the book. The new material includes several new examples of natural birth control and the fertility awareness method, with illustrations. The book contains 40 charts for readers to use. The book is written in an accessible style and contains edifying case studies.
There is so much we do not learn about our bodies from our families or schools. This book was so informative about the female reproductive cycle and ways one can use this knowledge for a natural birth control. Because this can also be a “controversial” topic, they did it in an unbiased, scientific manner. I am very grateful to have read this book.
A great book to read as a woman to better understand your natural cycle. Even if you plan on using hormonal birth control it still has a lot of great information every woman should know about herself!
Just when I thought I understood my cycle...this book offered a lot of great information to me as I don't do great on man-made hormones. Informative, educational and sparked a lot of conversation with my girlfriends.
Guessing my ovulation date of course isn't that easy. There are ways to guess the window and that of course is the point of the book. I needed to remind myself of some facts. I really wanted a method that used the ovulation stick.
