More than 7.3 million women in the United States are unable to have children because of infertility challenges, according to the American Society for Reproductive Medicine. Women and men diagnosed with infertility often feel overwhelmed and panicked; they are eager for accessible information and medically sound guidance.

Aimed at couples that are planning to start a family, from those who have already experienced problems conceiving to those who have only recently decided to have a baby, Fertility & Conception is loaded with advice and up-to-date information on maximizing fertility. Bridging the gap between conventional and complimentary treatments, the book offers a unique approach to fertility by offering “Plan A”, a 4-week preconception program of diet and complimentary therapies, and “Plan B,” which focuses on combining conventional treatments such as IVF, with complimentary treatments.
