For many years, it has been known that pituitary gonadotropins are in control of menstrual cycle dynamics and ovulation. Over thirty years ago, the introduction of medications that were capable of inducing ovarian function through indirect or direct gonadotropin stimulation revolutionized the treatment of reproductive disorders in both men and women. This book covers all aspects of ovulation induction that a clinician needs to know including all known current stimulation protocols and induction strategies. It is directed at all gynaecologists, infertility professionals, both medical and paramedical including postgraduate students.

Manual of Ovulation Induction and Ovarian Stimulation Protocols encompasses all aspects of ovulation induction and current stimulation protocols in detail. This detailed text provides the reader with a reliable overview of the principles involved and the management required for ovulation induction in the treatment of infertility. This book is comprised of 68 chapters which cover the tailoring of ovarian stimulation regimens to a patient’s medical history and previous response to treatment. Both the clinical and sonographic findings in evaluating ovulatory function and dysfunction are discussed in detail. Methods for monitoring folliculogenesis, which in turn allows the ART specialist to accurately predict the number, as well as the timing of the high quality of oocyte retrieval, are discussed in detail. The book features discussion on basic and clinical research evidence, which is accumulating to propose the future use of recombinant FSH and LH in order to achieve controlled ovarian stimulation. The inclusion of the most current research in this second edition makes Manual of Ovulation Induction and Ovarian Stimulation Protocols a valuable book for gynaecologists, infertility specialists, and healthcare professionals dealing with IVF. Key Points Includes current research and future implications 60+ full colour images and illustrations New edition. First published 2005

Practical Guide to Ovulation Induction is considered a basis of success for the assisted reproductive technologies. There are several chemicals available for the same but the precise guidelines and understanding about these chemicals, their precise indications and side-effects are not fully understandable in most literature available. The authors have tried to cover each and every aspect of ovulation induction in this book including ovulation induction for intrauterine insemination and in vitro fertilization, in polycystic ovarian syndrome patients and also in poor responders, down regulation options, monitoring of the stimulated cycles, ovulation trigger and luteal support. It is a crisp, precise and a concise book covering the entire subject with clear understanding and a quick reference for busy practitioners too. Book jacket.

Personnel working in assisted reproductive technology often lack the opportunities for dedicated training in the specialized techniques and technologies required for the procedures. As such, success in the form of live birth rates can range from over 50% to less than 10% per treatment cycle. This comprehensive introductory textbook is an essential resource for trainee embryologists, medical students and nurses. The recent revolutions in biotechnology and molecular biology involved in delivering assisted reproductive services are thoroughly discussed. Basic knowledge such as the development and physiology of both male and female reproductive systems is covered, with practical aspects of IVF including gamete and embryo manipulation, cryopreservation and genetic testing explained in detail. A full description of the optimal structure and management of the IVF laboratory is given, helping ensure procedures are safe and effective. Extensive and highly detailed colour illustrations bring the content to life and aids readers in their understanding.

Fertility specialists are constantly looking for ways to improve the chances of pregnancy through IVF or other assisted reproductive techniques (ART). ‘Adjuvant’ or ‘add-on’ therapies are procedures or medications which are added to IVF treatment to try and improve the chances of success. This book is a practical guide to the use of adjuvants in infertility for clinicians and trainees. Divided into ten sections, the text begins with an overview of the rational for additional therapy in IVF. The next section examines different types of adjuvant therapy and their pros and cons. Topics include medical nutrition therapy, neutraceuticals, antioxidants, micronutrients, and reactive oxygen species. Each of the following sections covers adjuvant use for improving a specific fertility issue – PCOS, ovarian reserve, uterine blood flow, endometrial receptivity, embryo implantation, and male subfertility. The final sections discuss the impact of thyroid autoimmunity on the outcome of ART, and the use of surgery as an adjuvant in infertility. Key points Practical guide to the use of adjuvants in infertility Covers various types of adjuvant and their use for different fertility issues Includes discussion on surgery as an adjuvant Highly illustrated with clinical photographs and diagrams
