This is an invaluable tool, both for couples struggling with the frustrations of infertility and for those who seek a natural way to avoid becoming pregnant. Weschler debunks the ineffective Rhythm Method and explains a far more reliable alternative that allows women to exert real control over their fertility: the Fertility Awareness Method. Ample illustrations, charts on which women can track their cycles, and chapters on such topics as gender selection and male fertility make this revised edition an outstanding and classic work on fertility.

Although its primary function is to introduce readers to the FAM and address issues specific to conception and natural birth control, Taking Charge of Your Fertility is also an important resource for any woman who wishes to better understand her general gynecological health. The result is a comprehensive guidebook covering menstrual cycles, menopause, and sexuality, as well as reproductive health.

Since its publication in 1995, Taking Charge of Your Fertility has helped literally hundreds of thousands of women achieve pregnancy, avoid pregnancy, or simply gain better control of their moods, health, and lives. Now it is revised and updated to include a revolutionary fully-intuitive charting system; numerous new master charts, including separate ones for pregnancy achievement, birth control, and menopause; a new celsius chart; a fully-revised chapter on advances in high-tech treatments; a physicians appendix; and a new epilogue that explores the emerging role of fertility awareness in the long and compelling history of the modern womens health movement.
