Audiobook

Infertility affects 15 percent of couples trying for their first baby. It is a huge and complicated topic with lots of ongoing research into it, and can be daunting to the non-medical person.

Topics covered include:

  • Conception and the process of implantation

  • Infertility - definition and causes, both male and female

  • Related problems - PCOS, recurrent miscarriage

  • When to ask for help

  • Tests and treatments

  • Assisted reproductive technology

  • Complementary therapies
