Product Description
For decades, Dr. Silber's HOW TO GET PREGNANT has been the most popular resource for couples trying to conceive. Now thoroughly revised and updated to include cutting-edge information on all the very latest treatments for infertility, this edition will be the ultimate guide for prospective parents in the 21st century. The comprehensive text explains not only the essential facts of getting pregnant, but also how to solve onceinsurmountable fertility problems. Among the new hightech tests and procedures covered is the revolutionary technique of antral follicle count, which allows women to calculate at any point in their lives how many remaining years of fertility they have and helps them to determine whether to preserve their eggs. For all couples who dream of becoming parents, Dr. Silber's HOW TO GET PREGNANT will be the one and only book they need to address all their concerns about conceiving a healthy child.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very accurate and factual, corrects misinformation., November 4, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: How to Get Pregnant (Paperback)
This book was the most accurate of the 3 I read. The most important information dealt with exact timing of intercourse (or IUIs) in order to conceive. Some of the information I had earlier was wrong, which actually could have prevented conception!

5.0 out of 5 stars excellent, detailed, fills in the gaps kinda book, April 22, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: How to Get Pregnant (Paperback)
This book answered questions I didn't know I had about getting pregnant, differing cycle problems and just all the amazing things that have to work together for a successful pregnancy and birth. I found answers on how avoid repeat miscarriages, and details on different procedures, medications and tests to determine probable causes of infertility. This book truly answers most all questions any couple could have on delivering a beautiful little baby.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book! Helped me determine my problem!, November 8, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: How to Get Pregnant (Paperback)
I have to disagree with some of the poor reviews. After trying to get pregnant for 2 years, I got this book and began following some of Dr. Silber's advice, on my own thought I had figured out what my problem was after charting my temperature and reading the chapter on that, and sure enough went to the Dr who diagnosed the problem I suspected I was having. I was started on Clomid and was pregnant a few months later!
