Information, communication and guidance. These were the three most important factors to us as we began our treatment. Our physician not only answered questions but offered information on issues ranging from treatment options for becoming pregnant to what our treatment options would cost. I hope this book will become one every OB/Gyn gives to a patient he/she is referring to a fertility specialist, for I found it to be an extremely comprehensive, informative and understandable guide to the treatment process. Annette Discerni Wilson
What makes it stand out from other infertility books is its coverage of the emotional as well as medical aspects of infertility... describes in clear, concise terms how it feels to go through the infertility evaluation and treatment... the reader is assured that the authors understand all the facets of the infertility experience... it allows the patient to be an active and informed participant in their treatment process... increases their feelings of control over the treatment process... I will routinely recommend it to the couples I work with. Susan C. Klock, Ph.D. Assistant Professor of Obstetrics, Gynecology and Psychiatry Northwestern University Medical School

This book is an excellent resource for couples facing infertility issues. Dr. Jarrett is an extremely competent and caring Reproductive Endocrinologist who clearly explains the most current medical procedures available. Dr. Rausch provides warmth and understanding when helping patients deal with accompanying emotions. I highly recommend The Fertility Guide. Ann
The joint efforts of Dr. Rausch, who addresses the emotional side of infertility coupled with Dr. Jarrett's chapters on the medical issues and treatments involved make this book a valuable resource for couples. It is written in easy to understand language and at the same time answers all your questions about tests, results and what they mean to you. I recommend this book to our readers.

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
I feel privileged to have accompanied so many couples as they navigate the infertility journey. Through our experiences over the past eleven years I have been able to observe different aspects of the journey and am excited about the opportunity to share some helpful hints for survival. I have been surrounded by supportive people throughout my life journey, and offer special thanks to Dave, Taylor, Meredith, Jake and my parents Tom and Jeanine for their patience and support.

Uncharted Territory
How can I say good-bye, When we've not yet said hello?
My "Imagined Child" will you ever come to be?
From early years the future was guaranteednow I wonder, "Will this dream be realized?"
Carefree and assured, we started our lives together; Tentative and unsure, will we forever fear the future?
The pathway to you is uncertain,The questions unanswerable.
As the journey continues, filled with evaluation of uncharted territory, my vision of you remains constant.
My peace is found in knowing that while I may not hold you in my arms, I will always hold you in my heart.
D. Rausch
