Working with Infertility and Grief: A Practical Guide for Helping Professionals explores issues of grief, including disenfranchised grief and chronic sorrow, related to infertility and reproductive loss. Out of the small handful of books related to this topic, this is the first of its kind geared toward equipping helping professionals who assist those grieving unrecognized losses. Written through the lens of the literary framework of The Hero’s Journey, this comprehensive practitioner guide directly targets mental health professionals working with clients, supervisees, or students who have experienced infertility, miscarriage, or death of an infant. This book is also for those who experienced it themselves. Readers will learn more about the crisis of infertility and reproductive loss, gain insight into the experience of those suffering, and acquire practical tools and strategies for helping and healing. This text is broad enough to be integrated into a course for a graduate program and specific enough to serve as a shelf reference for those in practice.

Despite the fact that about half of infertility problems stem from male factors, gynecologists are often the first health care providers to perform the initial assessment of the infertile couple. For this reason, it is critical that gynecologists and reproductive medicine specialists remain up to date on the primary conditions that cause male infertility, as well as current diagnostic tools and treatment options of both natural and assisted conception. From diagnosis through treatment, Male Infertility: Management of Infertile Men in Reproductive Medicine offers expert, straightforward guidance on the pathophysiology and management of male infertility for clinicians who assist couples early in the process of trying to conceive.
