Infertility, Impatience and Intuition

Book excerpt: The infertility treatment sector is growing and is undoubtedly an expensive affair. It does not guarantee immediate results and multiple attempts may be required. Medical intervention to conceive through various infertility treatments does not guarantee conception unless it is also backed up by a healthy lifestyle and reduced stress levels. Most young couples are postponing starting a family later in their life. While they strive to strike a balance between their higher studies and financial stability, achieve their personal and professional goals, and strengthen their relationships to become parents, the biological clock keeps ticking. This leads to difficulty in conceiving and an increased infertility rate in young couples. The whole process of conception has become complicated and stressful instead of a joyous one. From a renowned physical therapist and antenatal counsellor with over two decades of experience in handling normal pregnancies, assisted pregnancies and pregnancies involving various risks this book will help couples who are planning a pregnancy or undergoing infertility treatment to increase the possibilities of conception. The tips and advice in this book are practical and effective in today’s hectic life with increased stress levels.
