Most couples presenting with a fertility problem do not have absolute infertility (that is, no chance of conception), but rather relative subfertility with a reduced chance of conception because of one or more factors in either or both partners.
This book looks at the management of subfertility beginning at diagnosis, and explains the reasons and treatment options for different types of subfertility in men and women. It then offers advice on all forms of assisted conception, as well as counselling both to help with treatment decisions and for couples with intractable infertility.
