Infertility Management Made Easy

Book excerpt: This book is a comprehensive guide to the management of infertility for gynaecologists and trainees. Divided into seven sections, the text begins with initial patient presentation and various diagnostic investigation techniques including transvaginal sonography, laparoscopy, hysteroscopy, and semen analysis. The following sections cover different causes of anovulation (lack or absence of ovulation), problems with the uterus and fallopian tubes such as polyps and fibroids, and other conditions including endometriosis, pelvic inflammatory disease, and cervical factors. The next section examines male infertility, followed by detailed discussion on the use of IUI (intrauterine insemination) and IVF (in vitro fertilisation), and when each is the more appropriate treatment method. The third edition of this book has been fully revised to provide clinicians with knowledge of the latest advances and technologies in the field.
