It is to date one of my most popular episodes, and in our previous episode, we spoke at length about the role that cervical mucus plays in a woman’s fertility, and why mucus is essential.   In today’s show, we talk about Kerry’s most recent publication. A study that delves into how few women are able to correctly identify their fertile window, even though the majority of women in the study wanted to learn more about fertility awareness, also the implications that these findings have for women trying to get pregnant.   Topics discussed in today's episode The disconnect between what women think they know about their fertility and what they actually know Why women think they understand their fertility, but often can’t correctly identify their fertile window Are physicians and nurses capable of helping women to correctly identify when they’re fertile Do women know that fertility tracking apps are a version of the rhythm method? What factors make it more complicated for women to use predictive charting apps and devices? How can fertility awareness charting help women conceive when they have PCOS? How can diet and lifestyle changes improve menstrual cycle health and fertility? Dispelling the 28-day cycle myth and the day 14 ovulation myth Understanding that variability is normal within the menstrual cycle, and also during different times in a woman’s life How do life events impact ovulation and the menstrual cycle?
