4.0 out of 5 stars Comprehensive overview, August 6, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Resolving Infertility (Paperback)

The book offers a comprehensive overview of issues related to infertility, including medical, psychological, and financial. One shortcoming is that the discussion of age and fertility is too brief. A major strength is the medical discussion, which very clearly explains not only the basics, but also the many tests which may be part of an infertility evaluation. The personal stories and comments are also insightful.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic and Educational, August 6, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Resolving Infertility (Paperback)

This book is the best! I have read and reread it so many times I almost know it by heart. I have lent this book to so many people that I need a new copy! As a woman who has gone through the infertility nightmare and has gained hope by conceiving (and is looking to go through it again). I recommend this book to every woman who faces infertility and is looking for answers. This book gives the insights into the numerous tests that you will face as well as honest personal accounts about how they are (like how a HSG really feels - Ouch!)Thank you to the authors for this guide through the maze of infertility!

5.0 out of 5 stars An Excellant Book, February 24, 2007

This review is from: Resolving Infertility (Paperback)

Resolving Infertility is a great book to explain all the medical procedures, the tests (both what tests would be ran and what the results mean) the different types of infertility diagnosis and a great overall reference book. It does discuss the emotional aspects of infertility as well but not as in depth as other books. If you are look for a general reference book of what to expect medically, this is the book for you. And the best part it is written in simple language, no complex medical terms. I find myself frequently referring back to it for reference.
