The Expert Guide to Fertility
Boost Your Chances for Pregnancy
The essential guide to understanding fertility and improving your pregnancy chances.
The journey to fertility can be daunting and filled with obstacles. In The Expert Guide to Fertility, OB-GYNs Joseph S. Sanfilippo, MD, MBA, and Aarti Kumar, MD, offer the information you need in your journey to achieve pregnancy. They provide an overview of the human reproductive system, describe issues that may impede conception, and explain various medical, surgical, and lifestyle interventions shown to improve one's chances of becoming pregnant. Sanfilippo and Kumar offer important information on:
• A broad variety of assisted reproductive technologies, including in vitro fertilization
• Diagnostic tests and what to expect throughout your fertility journey
• Fertility-preserving options for people diagnosed with cancer and people with recurrent miscarriages, polycystic ovaries, a low egg supply, or endometriosis
• Fertility options for LGBTQ+ readers, single parents, and military personnel
• Adoption, egg and sperm donation, and egg freezing procedures
• Financing options, including tips for working with health care insurers

"This guide serves as a companion for those seeking information on preconception preparation, infertility testing and treatment, fertility preservation, the unique issues faced by the LGBTQIA+ community, and even the financial and emotional detours individuals may deal with along the way. As an infertility specialist, I give this book my highest recommendation to a wide spectrum of people looking for a comprehensive guide to enhance their fertility journey."
"This inclusive, comprehensive, fact-based book covers all social, medical, emotional, and financial aspects of infertility and family building."

This collection of patients' reproductive journeys is accompanied by Dr. Sanfilippo's and Dr. Kumar's descriptions of the conditions and treatments that played a role in each. These intertwined stories are ones that patients and clinicians will appreciate."
