Unexplained Infertility: Pathophysiology, Evaluation and Treatment is an authoritative clinical resource that explores one of the most challenging diagnoses in reproductive medicine. Edited by leading global experts, this comprehensive volume offers a systematic approach to understanding, evaluating, and treating male and female infertility when no clear cause is evident.
The text is divided into thematic sections for clarity and ease of use. It begins with epidemiology and current diagnostic criteria, including critical discussions of the WHO cutoff values for semen analysis. The book then delves into both male and female pathophysiology, exploring biological, genetic, and environmental factors. It outlines evaluative techniques for each partner and presents in-depth analysis of treatment strategies—including expectant management, medical therapy, surgery, and assisted reproductive technologies (ART) like IUI and IVF.
Written for clinicians and researchers in reproductive health, this volume provides a balanced synthesis of scientific evidence, practical treatment pathways, and insights into emerging technologies.
