Health Books about infertility


What is infertility?

The International Council on Infertility Information Dissemination (INCIID) considers a couple to be infertile if: they have not conceived after a year of unprotected intercourse, or after six months in women over 35; there is incapability to carry a pregnancy to term. Healthy couples in their mid-20s having regular sex have a one-in-four chance of getting pregnant in any given month. This is called "fecundity".

this book is incredibly helpful
As a therapist, I have recommended this book to several of my clients, both men and women. All have come back and thanked me for the referral, agreeing with me that this highly readable and very sensitive book is immensely helpful. Above all, it gives people confidence. I am so grateful to have come across it on Amazon.
Everything prospective parents need to know about using modern technology to create children through donated eggs
Clinical social worker specializing in adoption, parenting, and fertility-related issues Ellen Glazer and certified health education specialist Evelina Sterling present Having Your Baby Through Egg Donation, a thoroughly practical and informative guide that provides, in lay terms, everything prospective parents need to know about using modern technology to create children through donated eggs. Chapters address the circumstances in which egg donation is an option; the laws, rules, and ethics for recruited-donor programs; common emotional issues and problems associated specifically with a pregnancy from egg donation; issues to deal with during parenthood of a child conceived through egg donation; and much more. A list of organizations and on-line resources rounds out this valuable, absolute "must-read" for anyone considering participation in an egg donor program or becoming parents through such a practice.
This is a terrific, highly readable book.
The authors are a wealth of knowledge, answering many questions while raising others. For anyone considering egg donation, this book is sensitive, hopeful and empowering. It will be a continuous reference and guide through every step of the process.
Wonderful & Informative for Those Suffering from Infertility
I highly recommend Having Your Baby Through Egg Donation to anyone who is going through the pain of infertility. The book is incredibly helpful and informative. I am planning on passing it on to my friends who are suffering from infertility with the hopes that this compassionate book will offer them guidance and inspire them to continue their journey to have a child.-- WENDY S.
