Beyond preconception foundations, conception timing, and oocyte and sperm factors are the complicated patients we yearn to support.
Experienced fertility specialist, Leah Hechtman has designed this series to dissect those challenging scenarios that we are often faced with in clinical practice. As research has evolved and as fecundity plummets, our approach to supporting and understanding patients, needs more depth and specificity to truly enable the healthy creation of the next generation.
