Infertility in Practice

This text has been written as a practical guide, based on the author’s  experience over the last 40 years of daily clinical practice and aiming  to place the modern approach to the management of infertility in the  context of sound theory and evidence-based therapy. It provides the  reader with a comprehensive classification of the causes of infertility,  their investigation, and their management. This new edition covers many  advances in the understanding and management of infertility and other  updates to practice--for example, a greater understanding of the  pathophysiology of ovarian aging and ovarian reserve testing; the  classification of disorders of ovulation and management of polycystic  ovary syndrome; the refinement of regimens for superovulation, improved  embryo culture systems, and the use of artificial intelligence for the  selection of embryos; assessments for endometrial receptivity and  management of recurrent implantation failure; pre-implantation genetic  testing (PGT) as a therapeutic tool opening up the possibility for  aneuploidy screening; as well as the latest thoughts on nutritional  health, periconception care, and the exciting new world of the  microbiome.
