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.
This guide provides multiple options for readers, rather than one-size-fits-all recommendations. 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 and tips for working with health care insurers
The Expert Guide to Fertility is your one-stop shop for everything you need to know about getting pregnant.

Endorsements
"In this book, Dr. Joseph Sanfilippo shares his extensive knowledge on the subject of fertility and reproduction. Through patient vignettes, he delivers his lessons in a compassionate, positive, concise, and easy to understand manner full of clinical pearls. 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 face 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."
