Thank you!!!

I chose this book for the vast and researched information following listening to Lisa’s Fertility Fridays podcast. It did not disappoint. It filled in the gaps I needed to understand my body and reduced the fear about being older trying to conceive. Between the podcast and the book it’s been 2.5 months eating healthy (even liver 😉) and today I got my first positive pregnancy test. I know it’s early but now I believe it’s possible for me to become pregnant where before I doubted it. This book is for people who are willing to listen to the research, track signs and symptoms, and change their eating habits. Again, thank you!

If you have a uterus, you must read this book!

I cannot recommend this book highly enough to literally anyone with a uterus. Whether you are looking to get pregnant, avoid pregnancy, or simply optimize your health, Lisa walks you through everything you need to know in evidence-based, science back, terms but explained so you don’t need a medical degree to understand. Her advice is thorough and actionable. Highly highly highly recommend!

Game Changer

Wonderful and very informative! Will definitely be getting a physical copy! Thank you for going through all that work to bring this book to fruition!

A Must read for ladies !!

I learned so much about my feminine health and cycle and how to advocate for myself about it. They should teach this everywhere.

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.
