I am a registered nurse, and I was very skeptical about this book when a friend handed it to me. However, when I read it cover to cover, including all of the research data, I was thoroughly impressed and felt that it all made perfect sense. I left the other methods of birth control that we had been using (and disliking!) behind, and gave Love and Fertility a try. It was simply presented and yet thorough, and it WORKS. We avoided pregnancy for two and a half years, as intended, and then achieved pregnancy with ONE TRY! It had taken four years with our first child, and almost a year for our second. With the third, we followed the Ovulation Method, and it worked immediately! I have shared this book with many friends who wanted "out" of other methods of birth control, and the book has given every one of them the confidence to do so. I cannot say enough about it!

Those who love to use natural methods for their family planning this is a good book for them. First get a background knowledge and follow teaching guide through the charts available. As some NFP organizations recomend this book for their teaching you will find it is very easy to follow this. If you are already a member of such an organization, you will gain a better training by refering this book. The charts will help you to keep recods and finally make a decision by talking to your huby/wife.
