What is Fertility Awareness and Fertility Charting?
Fertility awareness is a term used to describe a method of predicting ovulation and fertility. It asks women to record different symptoms from day to day to look for patterns indicative of increased fertility. These symptoms may include oral temperature, cervical mucus observations, cervix status, saliva ferning patterns, etc. These patterns can be charted to facilitate analysis of changes throughout a given menstrual cycle. This is why the term fertility charting is frequently used to describe this technique.
