A Couple With Infertility, 1 Year Later

A Couple With Infertility, 1 Year Later At the obstetrics and gynecology grand rounds held approximately 1 year ago, Dr John Collins discussed the evaluation and management of a couple with unexplained infertility.1 Dr Collins outlined current assisted reproduction techniques, including intrauterine insemination (IUI), transfer of gametes into the fallopian tube (GIFT), and in vitro fertilization (IVF), with transfer of an embryo into the uterus.

My husband is more upbeat, but http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png JAMA American Medical Association
