Reproductive medicine provides medical and technical options for those facing infertility. This includes all treatments and procedures that involve the handling of human eggs, sperm, or embryos with the aim of achieving pregnancy and the birth of a child. This book outlines the types, frequencies, and causes of fertility disorders. The authors describe all current solutions offered by reproductive medicine to facilitate pregnancy and childbirth. They thoroughly discuss the health consequences and risks, as well as the psychological burdens associated with reproductive medical treatments, and to what extent these can be reduced or avoided. For the first time, the effectiveness and success rates of these procedures in clinical practice in Germany are addressed.
