对 80 名在三级转诊生育中心接受咨询的妇女进行了为期 3 个月的调查，了解她们对生育意识的了解以及她们如何利用这些信息来提高受孕机会。据推测，不到 50% 的受试者对其月经周期中的受孕时间有充分的了解。每个受试者都匿名填写一份调查问卷，并由 2 名独立的自然计划生育教师对生育意识进行 3 个类别的评分。分数范围为0分（表示对生育意识没有概念的女性）到6分（表示女性有生育意识）。结果显示，26%（n=21）的受试者得分为 4 分或更高，被认为具有足够的理解力。该假设被接受，使人们有理由担心各级生育调查中消费者教育的有效性。
Eighty women attending for consultation at a tertiary referral fertility unit over a 3-month period were surveyed for their knowledge of fertility awareness and how they used this information to enhance their chances of conception, It was hypothesized that less than 50% of the subjects had an adequate understanding of when the fertile time occurred in their menstrual cycle. A questionnaire was completed anonymously by each subject and these were scored in 3 categories for fertility awareness by 2 independent Natural Family Planning teachers. Scores ranged from 0 for women who had no concept of fertility awareness, to 6 for women who were highly aware. The results showed that 26% (n=21) of subjects had a score of 4 or greater which was considered as having an adequate understanding. The hypothesis was accepted, giving reason for concern about the effectiveness of consumer education at all levels of fertility investigation.
