Kathy Reed and Josh Copel. It was written primarily for physicians. It is not an easy, casual read for the lay person. However, it can be a worthwhile read. I have chosen to include the sections on ultrasound scan technique for the health care professionals reading this. If you are an infertility patient, you may find this section and some of the other more technical sections valuable. This information may help you become a more critical consumer of health services. The numbers in parentheses refer to the references which appear at the end. There are no individual hyperlinks to the references. TIP!

Immunology May Be Key To Pregnancy Loss By Carolyn B. Coulam M.D. and Nancy P. Hemenway Until the last decade, there was little a couple could do if they suffered from recurrent pregnancy losses. Miscarriages that couldn't be attributed to chromosomal defects, hormonal problems or abnormalities of the uterus were labeled "unexplained," and couples would continue to get pregnant, only to suffer time and again as they lost their babies. New research, however, indicates that as many as 80 percent of "unexplained" losses may the attributable to immunological factors-and some new therapies are enabling up to 80 percent of those affected to carry a baby to term. About 15 to 20 percent of all pregnancies result in miscarriage, and the risk of pregnancy loss increases with each successive pregnancy loss. For example, in a first pregnancy the risk of miscarriage is 11 to 13 percent. In a pregnancy immediately following that loss, the risk of miscarriage is 13 to 17 percent. But the risk to a third pregnancy after two successive losses nearly triples to 38 percent. Many doctors do not begin testing for the cause of pregnancy loss until after three successive miscarriages. However, because the risk of loss to a third pregnancy after two successive miscarriages is so high, the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecologists (ACOG) now recommends testing after a second loss-especially for women over the age of 35.

The diagnosis of infertility is often very overwhelming for patients http://www.ivf.com/fert.html

Georgia Reproductive Specialists' Infertility 101 The diagnosis of infertility is often very overwhelming for patients. Not only are they faced with the news that conceiving a child is only possible through medical treatment, they are also presented with information that is totally new to them. New medical jargon along with recommendations for treatments and tests that are completely unfamiliar can be very intimidating for the newly diagnosed. Georgia Reproductive Specialists believes in creating a partnership with the patient and we have found that the most successful partnerships occur when the patient is well-informed and can play an active role in their treatment. We value an open and ethical relationship with each patient in an environment that fosters trust and mutual respect, an environment where questions are welcome and encouraged. This section of ivf.com is dedicated to educating the patient about infertility. You will find basic information about diagnoses, testing procedures and pregnancy tools along with a glossary of infertility terms and medical articles related to specific conditions and treatment options. If you have additional questions after reading this information, please review our FAQs or submit a question on our Ask the Expert page .

Male Infertility Overview Assessment, Diagnosis, and Treatment Stephen F. Shaban, M.D. Clinical Assistant Professor Department of Surgery, Division of Urology University of North Carolina School of Medicine Chapel Hill, NC. ASSESSMENT Male Infertility - Overview Approximately 15% of couples attempting their first pregnancy meet with failure. Most authorities define these patients as primarily infertile if they have been unable to achieve a pregnancy after one year of unprotected intercourse. Conception normally is achieved within twelve months in 80-85% of couples who use no contraceptive measures, and persons presenting after this time should therefore be regarded as possibly infertile and should be evaluated. Data available over the past twenty years reveal that in approximately 30% of cases pathology is found in the man alone, and in another 20% both the man and woman are abnormal. Therefore, the male factor is at least partly responsible in about 50% of infertile couples. MALE REPRODUCTIVE PHYSIOLOGY The Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Gonadal Axis The hypothalamus is the integrative center of the reproductive axis and receives messages from both the central nervous system and the testes to regulate the production and secretion of gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) . Neurotransmitters and neuropeptides have both inhibitory and stipulatory influence on the hypothalamus. The hypothalamus releases GnRH in a pulsatile nature which appears to be essential for stimulating the production and release of both

32. Environmental Causes Of Infertility infertility and miscarriage are being shown to result from repeated exposure to many chemicals in our environment. infertility articles http://www.chem-tox.com/infertility/

Information Compiled by Wayne Sinclair, M.D. Richard W. Pressinger, (M.Ed.) Graduate Research Project USF, Tampa, Florida Infertility Research Access Environmental causes of infertility and miscarriage have been summarized for you from major medical journals. Infertility Topics Include: coffee MSG plastics nutrasweet alcohol food additives cosmetic chemicals job occupations cigarettes pesticide use vehicle exhaust geographic locations The information outlined below clearly demonstrates how the primary cause of infertility today is due to the wide range of chemical exposures present in the home, job, diet and environment. Avoiding these circumstances should significantly improve the likelihood of conception by decreasing " wear and tear " on the genes that control the reproductive processes. Evidence also included demonstrates the same chemicals responsible for infertility and miscarriage are being identified as increasing the risk for having a child with mental retardation, learning disabilities or behavior problems (such as A.D.D.). Research Summaries (Information summarized from major medical journals and magazines) Percentage of women with infertility differs with age.
