Having children is the fruit of marriage in every society. In some communities, delayed pregnancy is a heavy burden for a couple, who may feel criticized or judged by others, leading to stress and depression. Anything that threatens their hopes of a child brings fear, anxiety and distress. Infertility can affect a couple’s sense of purpose, their relationships and their inner peace, and the problem is made worse by remarks from family and friends who are all waiting for the happy news.

Social barriers can also delay help: some husbands refuse or put off joining their wives at the doctor, even though infertility is a problem the couple shares, and it is the time when they need each other most. In some communities, seeking medical help is still seen as shameful. Personal barriers include loss of desire, as intercourse turns into a duty and a treatment. Among the most important barriers is a lack of reliable information about one’s condition and about modern methods of diagnosis and treatment, such as diagnostic ultrasound, ICSI and genetic testing of embryos.

That is why it is worth seeking knowledge: understanding your situation is power, and it helps overcome fear of the problem. Science has made great progress in treating infertility, and assisted reproduction has brought real hope. I wrote this book to explain the causes, diagnosis and treatment of infertility simply, so that you have the information you need to make the right decisions. Someone cares about hearing your concerns; you are not alone, and your doctor is the hand that will help you through this journey.
