0:00.0 | Welcome back to the Fertility Friday podcast. I have some exciting news to share with you today. Your opportunity to learn fertility awareness with me is here. Registration for Fertility Awareness Mastery Live is open and we're starting in just a few weeks actually on October 31st. This is my group coaching program for women who want to balance hormones, boost progesterone, banish PMS, eliminate |
0:21.1 | period pain, optimize fertility, all the things, through the power of cycle charting. |
0:26.1 | Fan Live teaches you to use the menstrual cycle as a vital sign. You'll leave this program not only |
0:30.9 | with a solid understanding of the symptom thermal method for birth control and conception, but with a |
0:35.2 | completely new relationship with your body and your cycles. We keep the group small so we can better support each of you, so spaces are limited. |

0:49.5 | This is the fertility Friday podcast, episode number 491. |
1:00.0 | Thank you. The Fertility Friday podcast episode number 491. Today's episode is all about using fertility awareness for birth control. |
1:05.1 | It's the real talk about how it really works. |
1:09.8 | These are things that I don't always hear people talking about |

1:53.1 | understanding of the method and your ability to follow the rules correctly and to understand the |
1:56.9 | rules before you can even follow them correctly. And so in today's episode, we really go into |
2:01.6 | that in detail. So without further ado, let's go ahead and jump in. |
2:10.8 | I'm excited to share today's episode with you. And I know I always say that, but I always am. So I |
2:16.5 | feel like it's appropriate to say it nearly every single time I record an episode for you. |
2:20.8 | But in today's episode, I wanted to talk, do some real talk, really, about using fertility awareness for birth control. |
