I have just bought this book after reading it in detail in the bookshop! I have been looking for specific practical advice on diet and other lifestyle factors that have some kind of scientific link to improved fertility. I really liked this book as it listed specific vitamins and minerals with a recommended dosage, as well as herbs and foods that contain the right nutrients to support fertility.
I found the tone and detail of the information an improvement on a lot of the other fertility books I've read, and it steered away from the more 'extreme' advice about exclusion of food groups etc. which some other 'experts' encourage.
The book is based on a step-by-step programme to improve your fertility so I'm looking forward to receiving the book and reading the other steps.
My no.1 recommendation for understanding fertility is still Toni Weschler's Take Control of Your Fertility, but a book like Get Pregnant Faster is a great supplement if it's taking a little longer than expected.

I'm Theresa Cheung the co-author with Colette Harris for the book 'PCOS and your Fertility' mentioned in the one star review. I also used to be a health researcher and helped Dr Glenville research some of the sections for her Getting Pregnant Faster book. I supplied Dr Glenville with the passages mentioned as I felt this was such important information to share with readers and reach a wider audience. (You can find my name in her acknowledgements.) As I wrote the passages she, of course, has full permission to use them.
I sincerely hope that anyone reading Getting Pregnant Faster will benefit from this great and potentially life changing book.

My wife bought this book a year or so ago and started to make changes in both our diets and lifestyles. The hardest thing for me was quitting smoking and it took me ages to get my head around that. I really didn't think some of the recommendations would make a difference but we had been trying for a baby for two years with nothing happening so I made the decision to try the recommendations as I really didn't want to go to my doctor and start all the testingg. I don't know if it was luck or if it was due to me and my wife changing our lifestyle and habits but six months ago my wife got pregnant and so far the pregnancy has been 100 per cent healthy. My wife is convinced it is because we changed our diet and lifestyle and I'm almost convinced it is. Whatever the truth is I think that what the book recommends is solid and reliable and you will certainly feel healthier and happier following the guidelines it gives. We have been incredibly fortunate so far and are counting our blessings, one of which may - and I stress may - have been this book. Certainly worth a try if you want to become a parent but things arent going your way.

Shockingly enough, large passages of this book are copied verbatim from 'PCOS and your Fertility' by Colette Harris and Theresa Cheung; I bought both at the same time. Read more
