Infertility | Fertility

Infertility is a heartbreaking condition that can affect every aspect of a woman's life, and 9 million American couples struggle with it each year. In "Conquering Infertility," Harvard psychologist Dr. Alice Domar-whom Vogue named the "Fertility Goddess"-provides infertile women with what they need most: stress relief, support, and hope. Within a year, more than 50 percent of the patients who used her mind/body techniques along with their infertility treatment conceived pregnancies that resulted in a baby, compared with 20 percent who did not use the mind/body tools. Dr. Domar provides wise, strong words on: * sustaining a career during infertility * coping when friends and family members become pregnant * navigating the medical maze * what to do when infertility threatens your belief in God * exploring other options when treatment fails With "Conquering Infertility," women learn how to cope with infertility in a much more positive way and carve a path-however unexpected-toward a rich, full, happy life. ""Conquering Infertility" offers sensitive, practical and scientifically documented support and guidance to help all shoes who are dealing with infertility."
