Millions of American women seek fertility treatments every year. These treatments are difficult to endure and can have adverse effects on health. David, a reproductive endocrinologist, and Blakeway, a licensed acupuncturist and certified herbalist, present a program of integrating lifestyle changes with traditional and alternative therapies to achieve pregnancy with minimal use of assisted-reproductive technology (ART). They explain the mechanics of conception and its impediments, outlining five fertility types, common fertility problems and solutions, and a three-month program that they posit will lead to pregnancy. In a final section, the authors discuss when and how to use ART if necessary. An appendix includes a resource list and instructions for using a basal temperature chart. Verdict This is a helpful, supportive book that provides viable options for couples who are trying to conceive.-Barbara M. Bibel, Oakland P.L. Copyright 2009 Media Source Inc.
