Ovulation Stimulation with Gonadotropins 2015 (Hardcover): Jean-Claude Emperaire Ovulation Stimulation with Gonadotropins 2015 (Hardcover)
Jean-Claude Emperaire
R2,891 Discovery Miles 28 910 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

How does one learn to stimulate ovulation? Often by oneself, when there is no opportunity to benefit from a mentor's experience. But options abound regarding the evaluation strategy, protocol design, gonadotropin preparations, posology, treatment duration, and when and how to trigger ovulation. Proper, safe stimulation requires critical anticipation of ovarian reactions. There seems to be little evidence-based consensus in the field of ovarian stimulation. Though they all face the same situation, there seem to be nearly as many procedures as there are clinicians in the field; as a result, approaches may vary within a given fertility center or even in the same team. Even though efforts have been made to arrive at a general consensus, the basic guidelines are often reinterpreted according to individual inclinations; hence the need to turn to experience-based decisions. This book is based on the author's experience gathered over forty years and more than 30,000 cycles of classical and IVF ovulation stimulations, particularly the thousand most recent cycles that resulted in a clinical pregnancy. It is not intended as a "perfect solution", as other approaches certainly remain valid. Rather, the book presents the author's own analysis and insights gained from managing thousands of stimulation cycles.

The Infertility Trap - Why Life Choices Impact your Fertility and Why We Must Act Now (Paperback): R. John Aitken The Infertility Trap - Why Life Choices Impact your Fertility and Why We Must Act Now (Paperback)
R. John Aitken
R380 Discovery Miles 3 800 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

A potential crisis in human fertility is brewing. As societies become more affluent, they experience changes that have a dramatic impact on reproduction. As average family sizes fall, the selection pressure for high-fertility genes decreases; exacerbated by the IVF industry which allows infertility-linked genes to pass into the next generation. Male fertility rates are low, for many reasons including genetics and exposure to environmental toxins. So, a perfect storm of factors is contriving to drive fertility rates down at unprecedented rates. If we do not recognize the reality of our situation and react accordingly, an uncontrollable decline in population numbers is likely, which we'll be unable to reverse. This book will address, in a unique and multi-faceted way, how the consequences of modern life affects fertility, so that we can consider behavioural, social, medical and environmental changes which could reduce the severity of what is about to come.

R1,851 Discovery Miles 18 510 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

The Diploma of the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists (DRCOG) is a well-regarded post-graduate qualification in women's health. The DRCOG is particularly respected among primary care and community sexual and reproductive health clinicians. Studying towards this qualification is rewarding and fun, and as such the exam has become extremely popular over recent years. In addition, holding the DRCOG has proved to be a useful indicator by which employers can differentiate excellent clinicians from the average ones. It certainly is the cherry on the cake of General Practice training, and complements the RCGP curriculum. Mastering the DRCOG is organised to directly reflect and fulfil the DRCOG syllabus set by the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists in April 2007, and chapters are laid out precisely following the DRCOG syllabus format. Starting with an overall introduction to the exam, the book then covers the seven core modules of the syllabus: Basic Clinical Skills, Basic Surgical Skills, Antenatal Care, Management of Labour and Delivery, Postpartum and Neonatal Problems, Gynaecological Problems and Subfertility & Contraception. This is followed by a section of 'hot topics' not specifically mentioned in the syllabus but of real interest for all those working in the area of women's health.

Breastfeeding in Hospital - Mothers, Midwives and the Production Line (Hardcover): Fiona Dykes Breastfeeding in Hospital - Mothers, Midwives and the Production Line (Hardcover)
Fiona Dykes
R3,909 Discovery Miles 39 090 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

'Breast is best' is today's prevailing mantra. However, women - particularly first-time mothers - frequently feel unsupported when they come to feed their baby. This new experience often takes place in the impersonal and medicalized surroundings of a hospital maternity ward where women are 'seen to' by overworked midwives. Using a UK-based ethnographic study and interview material, this book provides a new, radical and critical perspective on the ways in which women experience breastfeeding in hospitals. It highlights that, in spite of heavy promotion of breastfeeding, there is often a lack of support for women who begin to breastfeed in hospitals, thus challenging the current system of postnatal care within a culture in which neither service-user nor provider feel satisfied. Incorporating recommendations for policy and practice on infant feeding, Breastfeeding in Hospital is highly relevant to health professionals and breastfeeding supporters as well as to students in health and social care, medical anthropology and medical sociology, as it explores practice issues while contextualising them within a broad social, political and economic context.

The changes that are happening within midwifery are of concern to those within the health care system, the academic world and those whose lives are touched by midwifery care. Failure to Progress reflects on the current situation and questions whether it is the most appropriate way of providing care for the childbearing woman. The book discusses what is happening both within midwifery as well as to midwifery as a profession in the context of social change. Topics covered include:
* the evolution of the midwifes role
* women's issues
* the functioning of the midwife within the health care system
* the effects of organisational change
* the relationships of the midwife with the woman she cares for and with medical practitioners.

All of the contributors to Failure to Progress are actively involved with the provision of care to the childbearing woman, and most are practising midwives. Together they build up a comprehensive picture of midwifery today which will be relevant to all midwifery students, practitioners and policy makers and not least to the consumers of midwifery care.
