Second Edition.
This is the revised and expanded edition of this comprehensive book on fertility issues, by the internationally renowned and leading Australian practitioner in the field, Professor Robert Jansen.
No one has a 100 per cent chance of conceiving. But when nature fails us in this, one of the most natural of quests, we find ourselves in an alien world of medicine and technology. Professor Robert Jansen has spent his professional life researching and explaining this world and in this updated edition he does so in a straightforward, friendly and kind way.
Reading this book will put you back in control in this foreign environment of modern reproductive medicine and technology. With this book you can be on an equal footing with your doctor and the other new people you meet-nurses, embryologists, counselors and even ethicists.
Completely revised from the first edition, Professor Jansen has included the latest on embryo biopsy and stem cells as well as a greatly expanded section on testing for and treating recurrent miscarriage. 'Getting Pregnant' will provide accurate and reliable information enabling you to make the right decisions in an often emotionally chaotic time.
