Have you recently found out you'll need fertility treatment to get pregnant? Are you currently preparing to do an IVF (in-vitro fertilisation) cycle? Or maybe you've already had unsuccessful fertility treatment and you're about to start another round. I'm so sorry that you're having to look to science to help you to have, or increase, your family. It's a shock and also very scary. I know, I've been there too. It's natural to be excited and, at the same time, anxious and scared. But you are not alone. Wouldn't it be helpful and supportive to read honest, real-life stories from those who have already gone through fertility treatments, such as IUI (intra uterine insemination), IVF and ICSI (intracytoplasmic sperm injection)? All our stories maybe different, but one thing's for sure, we all have the same goal; to get pregnant and to bring our baby home. This is IVF and other Fertility Treatments is a must-have read, especially if this is your first cycle. But it will still help you if you are on cycle number two, three or four. When going through fertility treatments, there are physical things you'll do, such as: ¿ Inject hormones - tough if you don't like needles ¿ Pop pessaries somewhere you'd rather not think about! ¿ Have numerous scans (hello Wanda, again!), and blood tests/draws ¿ Plus, remember stats, facts, dates and so much new information. However, there's also a part that you can't see, and you won't yet know how it's going to affect you; your emotions and mental health, because: ¿ Your first cycle is exciting; you're doing something productive and everything is unknown ¿ You worry every minute, every day about this cycle working ¿ The extra hormones wreak havoc with your mood - think PMT on speed - and can physically be uncomfortable ¿ One minute you're Positive Polly, the next minute Negative Nancy appears. In This is IVF and other Fertility Treatments you'll read: ¿ That grieving when doing fertility treatment is normal ¿ The experience of a single mother by choice ¿ Coping with secondary infertility ¿ What three different families decided to do with their frozen embryos and ¿ Lots of advice on taking care of your mental health. If you know of someone who is going through fertility treatment and you would love to be able to support them but aren't sure what is the best way, this is the perfect book for you. Trust me, they will thank you. This book has also been written for: ¿ Patient facing staff who have never had fertility treatment ¿ Practitioners who are supporting infertile men and women, and ¿ Health care professionals who are caring for men and women who are pregnant after fertility treatment, because the emotions don't just go away when they are finally pregnant.
