Approximately five million American couples cannot conceive
children. For those who do conceive, some women experience
difficulty carrying the child to term. As a result, more than
fifteen percent of all American women have received some form of
fertility treatment. Although knowledge and technology in this area
is rapidly advancing, there is still a lack of basic, comprehensive
information about fertility and infertility written for the general
reader. This new addition to the Facts On File Library of Health
and Living series addresses that need with a guided tour through
the reproductive system. The Encyclopedia of Fertility and
Infertility covers key aspects of this growing health concern,
including causes and remedies, treatment options, and the latest
advances in the field and in birth control. Extensive appendixes
list major organizations and resources related to fertility and
infertility; major periodicals, journals and web sites offering
further information on the topic; and tips on selecting a fertility
clinic. Also featured is an extensive bibliography and a glossary
of medical terms to promote further research. More than 600 entries
cover: Amenorrhea; Chemicals and infertility; Donor insemination;
Endometriosis; Fibroids and infertility; Hormone replacement
therapy; Impotence; Miscarriage; Ovarian cancer and fertility
drugs; Pap smear; Sperm bank; Ultrasound.
