Resources
The following is a list of recommendations, organizations, and information that I has found to be helpful for women and couples beginning their fertility awareness journey.
1
Digital Charting
For digital charting, I first recommend the Read Your Body App because it is very customizable to your distinct lifestyle and usable with the flexibility of the Boston Cross Check method. As a Friend of Read Your Body, I can offer you a 3 month free trial of the app for all client course packages!

Wearable Thermometer
To track your body temperature for fertility awareness purposes without having to consistently wake up at the same time, I recommend using Tempdrop. The Tempdrop contains multiple sensors that measure your core temperature continuously throughout the night and uses a patented algorithm to give you an accurate reading. As an affliate of Tempdrop, I can offer you an additional 10% off if you click here!

Fertility Monitor
To monitor estrogen and luteinizing hormone (LH) levels and detect fertility status, I only recommend the Clearblue® Fertility Monitor. The Clearblue® Fertility Monitor consists of Test Sticks and a hand-held Monitor. Together these identify changes in 2 key hormones that control your fertility. The Monitor records your personal cycle to build up a complete and accurate picture of your most fertile days.
4
Hormonal Testing and Support
To monitor PdG levels and confirm ovulation, I highly recommend using Proov. Proov Confirm analyzes PdG, a urine marker of progesterone. Progesterone is the hormone that is required for implantation and pregnancy. High PdG levels in the second half of the cycle confirm you ovulated AND studies show elevated PdG levels during the implantation window can increase pregnancy rates up to 75%. As an affiliate of Proov, I can offer you an additional 15% off if you click here!

Fertility Awareness Organizations
To keep up with up to date information and advice about all things fertility awareness, I recommend subscribing to Natural Womanhood's newsletter and podcast. FACTS about Fertility also posts great new research and articles about fertility awareness.
