This is the essential reference book for couples diagnosed with infertility. It covers everything from understanding your reproductive cycle to what your options are if a biological child is not possible. The causes of infertility - both male and female - are examined, treatment options are explained, and a wide range of support services is included. Where appropriate, chapters include focus boxes written by a leading expert in the relevant field. Importantly, 'The Infertility Handbook' is written clearly and simply with the sensitivity and knowledge of a person who has been there. It aims to provide options at a time when people may feel they have none and understanding at a time when people can often feel cut off from their normal support network.
Angela I. Hutchins was like many career-driven, successful women who thought that falling pregnant was something that would just 'happen'. But it didn't. This book is the result of Angela's determination to provide other women with the information that she found was so lacking during her own battle with infertility. It draws on her years of research, her studies into the Billings Ovulation Method and her role as a mentor to other women on infertility-specific chat rooms and internet sites.
