More About the Author
Product Description
Product Description
The best, most comprehensive guide to infertility, and the only user guide to IVF treatment available.
This is an outstanding book. Originally published in 1997, and now updated to cover all the latest developments and changes, it really is the best and most comprehensive guide to IVF treatment available.
Easy to read, Your Essential IVF Companion is a mine of information:
How the reproductive system works.
• The different causes of fertility problems.
• The drug and treatment options available.
• How will the treatments make me feel?
• The medical technology – how does it work?
• Self-help and complementary medicine to help with fertility – and during IVF.
• IVF, infertility and your relationship as a couple.
• The alternatives – adoption and fostering.
This is also the ONLY book which provides a guide to every UK clinic and hospital offering IVF. The clinics do differ – both in their criteria for selecting IVF couples and in the sorts of experience couples can expect to have once they begin treatment.

An Essentional Read,
By A Customer
This review is from: Your Essential Infertility Companion: New edition of the bestselling, authoritative guide: A User's Guide to Tests Technology and Therapies (Paperback)
What a good read, it explains all the infertility tests you can expect to go through in a clear and none medical way, this is because she has been through all the investigations herself and was part of the BBC1 programme on IVF 'Making Babies' and as a result had a little girl at 42 with only a 3% chance of success - miracles do happen!! It also has a UK IVF Clinic list showing all the clinics in the UK and the facilities they offer, cost of treatment and success rates. The book is so easy to read and hard to put down I even found hubby reading it last night and as a result has been spouting IVF facts all night - what bigger recommendation do you need
