Sperm Tales


en Limba Engleză Paperback
Infertility is a medical problem defined as the failure of a couple to conceive a child after one year of unprotected sexual intercourse, or the inability to carry a pregnancy to live birth. According to the American Society of Reproductive Medicine, infertility affects about 6.1 million people. Sperm Tales provides the necessary step-by-step information that enables patients to anticipate and prepare for the various challenges -- medically and otherwise -- that attend the process of infertility treatment. Sperm Tales is written by veteran infertility expert, Lynn Collins, whose up-to-date information and compassionate voice, will put couples at ease and may even make them laugh. Further, the book is intended to help women of childbearing age gain a clear understanding about their fertility and the potential roadblocks they will confront if they wait too long. While great strides have been made in helping women conceive later in life, the book helps women of childbearing age to recognize the complication they will face if they presume too much when it comes to conceiving after the peak years. Sperm Tales is meant for both for men and for women and includes current and prospective patients; their families and support groups; others in medical community.
