Fertility, Pregnancy, and Wellness is designed to bridge science and a more holistic approach to health and wellness, in particular, dealing with female-male fertility and the gestational process. Couples seeking to solve fertility issues for different reasons, whether failed assisted reproductive techniques or the emotional impact they entail, economic or moral reasons, are demanding more natural ways of improving fertility. This book explores the shift in paradigm from just using medications which, in the reproductive field, can be very expensive and not accessible to the entire population, to using lifestyle modifications and emotional support as adjunctive medicine therapies. This must-have reference brings together the current knowledge – highlighting the gaps – and delivers an important resource for various specialists and practitioners.
"...designed to ‘bridge the gap’ between science and a holistic approach when it comes to fertility and pregnancy… [and] aims to provide insight into lifestyle modifications, wellness, etc. as they relate to pregnancy and fertility. This holistic focus is a unique and valuable objective [which] enables readers to learn more about these aspects of fertility and pregnancy as useful considerations for practitioners in addition to the already established guidelines…. There is a specific emphasis on alternative Chinese medicine and Indian Ayurvedic practices…. Overall, the book’s goal of enlightening the audience to the emotional, behavioral, and psychological aspects of fertility and pregnancy has been achieved…. [and] this would serve as a good adjunct to the wellness perspective of fertility and pregnancy." --©Doody’s Review Service, 2023, Kinjal Mehta, MD (University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center)
