Opis

Infertility is defined by the World Health Organization as the absence of conception after at least 12 months of unprotected intercourse. This condition affects approximately 10-15% of reproductive-aged couples. Isolated conditions of the female are responsible for infertility in 35% of cases, isolated conditions of the male in 30%, conditions of both the male and female in 20%, and unexplained causes in 15%. Female factor infertility can be divided into several categories: ovarian, tubal and peritoneal, uterine, cervical and other. A basic evaluation for female infertility includes an assessment for ovulation, tubal patency, and normality of the uterine cavity. Management of female factors affecting fertility may include medical treatment, surgical intervention, or assisted reproductive techniques. I hope this book will enhance your knowledge of female infertility, and you will be able to apply this information to your practice.
