Infertility, or the inability to conceive a child at all or with great difficulty, is a growing phenomenon in the United States as women delay having children into their 30s and see their biological clocks running down as they try and fail to conceive easily. More than 9 million infertility patients are being treated in the United States alone (Vital Statistics 1995), not counting the millions who have not sought or cannot afford treatment. "Fertility For Dummies" explains the pros and cons of the most complex fertility strategies in a clear, comprehensive, nonjudgmental manner, and uses experiences from actual fertility patients to prepare others undergoing treatment for the personal and relationship aspects of the treatment. In addition, this book presents the complete fertility story - from idea to successful pregnancy - in a clear and irreverant way that helps women (and men) make decisions regarding how far to go and how much to spend when seeking to bear a child.
