So that book that I bought?
Completely eye-opening.
Why did I never know some of this stuff before? It actually kind of irritates me.
It certainly wasn't covered in the books that my "marital counseling classes" had me read. In fact, we pretty much skipped the whole sex thing as a whole (which is another story for another day).
But as I am reading it, I feel like I am learning all this stuff for the first time. And I am a freaking 32-year old. Grr.
But anyways.
I really feel more empowered. Learning specifically about how my cycle works. How you can track your ovulation by your body's natural signs, and know exactly when you ovulate (without having to spend $40/month on ovulation predictor tests).
Of course, with this knowledge also comes some responsibility.
For example, my chart isn't showing things that "normal" charts should be showing.
Which means I need to find a new doctor here, fast.
Now, some of what I am seeing could be a result of travel. But not all of it.
But now that I am aware of what I should be seeing, it makes it much easier for me to go to the doctor and show HER (NO MORE men gynos) exactly what is going on. I feel much more empowered about my own body, and what is going on.
Why didn't I read this before???
