Priceless information, empowering and interesting!

I have been listening to Lisa's podcast, "Fertility Friday", for about a year now, and have learned so much from her and her guests, more than any book I read about fertility awareness.
I'm not even halfway through "The fifth vital sign", and I'm already amazed by the number of times I just couldn't close my mouth, because of how shocked I was from the information in this book, and this is coming from a person who's been obsessing with fertility awareness in the last two years.
I thought I knew a lot about the subject by now, but Lisa is just continuing to surprise me with her unbelievably deep knowledge. This is definitely a must read to all women, and I can't be thankful enough to have found my way to this priceless book.

The Fifth Vital Sign

This book was so informative and educational. I highly recommend for anyone wanting to become more in tune with your body!

Highly recommend

Enjoyed the book. Found myself rewinding chapters to make note of information provided. Recommended to my daughters also they can give their daughters this information and let them know there are alternatives

Wish I had this book years ago!

This book. I cannot say good enough things. Lisa does a simply incredible job and presenting the evidence-based science behind fertility, women’s reproductive health, hormonal contraception, and menstruation. She does so in a way that is captivating and easily digestible. I wish I had this book years ago, and perhaps I would have reconsidered hormonal contraception as a young teen. Incredible work!

Amazing information for ALL women!

I cannot believe we are not taught this information about our bodies. I’ve learned SO much from this book and am already applying it in my life (preconception health, using FAM to prevent pregnancy instead of dangerous pills, and then to conceive baby #2 when we are ready). I used some of these concepts in tracking to conceive our daughter and we conceived on the first try - it’s amazing what knowing your body does for your health.

A Must Read for Every Woman - Period!

Well-documented research, actionable steps for holistic health. Thank you for telling the Truth, Lisa. This is now a staple in my holistic health journey and practice.

Must Read for Women

This book is a must read for women everywhere. I will be gifting it to my doula clients and anyone’s daughter I can. Lisa shares knowledge all women, hell even men should grown up with. I am thankful she wrote it.

My top recommendation to women!

I've been a childbirth educator and birth doula since 10 years and am beyond thrilled to find this resource for my clients. This book is a must-read for anyone who ovulates/menstruates!!! If that's you, please please read this book. Whether you're trying not to conceive, trying to conceive, or just wanting to increase body awareness and wisdom so you can become your own best health detective, this is the BEST book for any and all of that.

A must read for every biological female!

This is such an important book. I wish I had been given it on my 13th birthday. Every woman should be taught this information !

A must read for healthcare professionals!

A wealth of research and knowledge was poured into this book! As a Registered Nurse working in women’s health education, I firmly believe in advocacy… and The Fifth Vital Sign is packed with firm evidence- and clinical-based information. This book gives the power back to women and menstruators to advocate for their health! I recommend it to all of my clients interested in knowing their TRUE options in birth control and health optimization.
