Rating: - well written and every word true!
i read several other books on infertility and this one was my favorite. i read it front to back and totally understood it.In fact i liked it so much i decided to see him and i did and he's a wonderful doctor and he is why i'm 5 months pregnant with twins. A must have for anyone going through infertility and is considering invitro. lets you know what to expect.
Rating: - Excellent.
This is a comprehensive reference book on the entire topic of infertility, written in an understandable and optimistic tone. The best of the doctor books available. Fern Reiss, author of "The Infertility Diet: Get Pregnant and Prevent Miscarriage"
