Every woman needs to read this!
I had so many ‘ah ha!’ Moments while reading. There were also moments that made me angry - but not at the book, at the fact that I (as a 30 year old woman) didn’t already know.
I have learned so much and will be listening to it again when I need a refresher on the fertility side of things.
