is to concentrate talent and efforts on the next obvious step - achieving a high rate of successful full-term pregnancies by concentrating on implantation and early pregnancy. Investigating and surmounting the disorders associated with this critical period are the major hurdles, which, through research and clinical efforts, must be overcome in order to achieve this goal. This book is a review of many of the aspects of implantation and early pregnancy in humans. A balanced view of advances and their clinical implications is presented in five different sections - embryonal diagnosis; luteal phase; implantation and its support; early pregnancy, physiology; and, finally, early pregnancy, pathology and treatment.
