This second edition has been extensively revised to bring clinicians fully up to date with the latest technologies and advances in the field of assisted reproductive techniques (ART). Each section is dedicated to a sub specialty, from polycystic ovary syndrome, ART procedures, and laboratory issues, to implantation, cryopreservation, endoscopy, ultrasound and more. A section entitled ‘contemporary thoughts’ examines the improvement of IVF outcome, ART and older women, and HIV and ART, and another discusses third party reproduction. Edited by internationally recognised experts in reproductive medicine, this comprehensive guide is highly illustrated with clinical photographs and diagrams to enhance learning.

We all want to live on a peaceful mountaintop where we can look down on the world below without getting hurt. With her trademark humor and style, Patsy Clairmont uses the story of "dancing bones" in Ezekiel to remind us that life in the valley can be pretty breathtaking, too. It's often in the valley that we learn and love the most. Rather than running from our troubles, Patsy says true "valley girls" find grace, freedom, and a sense of humor in the midst of turmoil.
The ovary plays a very significant role in aging. The regenerative capacity of stem cells is the key factor to promote healthy aging, and the stem cell viability would decline sharply after the reproductive period, especially in women. Except for stem cell aging and neuroendocrine aging, ovarian aging is also a hotspot in the field of aging research. Recent researches have investigated many factors affecting ovarian function or aging, in terms of gene mutation, epigenetic erosion, endocrine dysfunction and environment-dependent extrinsic factors. This Research Topic aims to explore in detail all the factors related to ovarian aging and female reproduction outcomes. We'll discuss various age-...

This book provides updates on the most recent developments in individualized infertility treatment resulting in improved outcomes.
Part of the recognised Infertility Management Series, this handbook is a complete guide to ovarian stimulation. Beginning with an overview of the physiology of gonadotropins, the following chapters discuss ways in which clinicians may better predict ovarian response to stimulation and how to select and tailor appropriate protocols. The book covers both oral and injectable agents for stimulation, and protocols for IVF and IUI, egg donors, oncofertility patients, and for low ovarian response. The final chapter details complications in ovarian stimulation, and their prevention and management. Other titles in the series include: Investigating Infertility, Intrauterine Insemination, Practical Management of Male Infertility, and Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome. Key points Part of Infertility Management Series providing complete guide to ovarian stimulation Helps clinicians better predict ovarian response and select appropriate treatment protocols Covers oral and injectable agents for different patient groups Edited by recognised team of experts in reproductive medicine
A much-needed overview of the available information now accumulating to indicate that assisted reproductive technologies are generally safe for both babies and mothers. However, the literature abounds with reports of a higher risk of obstetric and perinatal complications; regarding the long term outcomes for both women and children, the data are still scarce. The chapters summarized in this book review the current knowledge on long term safety of assisted reproduction and indicate the need for continued research to cover the lack of data in some specific patient groups and for recently developed treatments that only have a short period of follow-up.
Assisted Reproduction is a specialty undergoing rapid change as new technologies are introduced and new research challenges previous treatment options. This text examines a selection of controversial topics for both laboratory and clinical practice and tries to place them in perspective, so readers can understand how and why the current state of the question has come about and how future contributions to the debate should be measured. All physicians involved with the technologies concerned will learn from the expert contributions assembled here. CONTENTS: The use of ovarian markers * Use of molecular markers of endometrial receptivity * Use of GnRHa for triggering final oocyte maturation dur...
