Biographie de l'auteur

Dr. Karen Trewinnard, BM, FFSRH, has worked in contraception and women's health for the last 27 years, during which time she has developed a special interest in pre-pregnancy counselling. In 1995-8 she worked on the Advisory Group for the Health Education Authority's Preconception Folic Acid Campaign as the Faculty of Family Planning representative.

Présentation de l'éditeur

The sections on nutrition, contraception, screening tests, environmental hazards, food borne infections, and alcohol and caffeine consumption have been thoroughly revised and the text as a whole has been revisited to ensure it conforms with the latest guidelines. The design is being up-dated as well, to make it more appealing to contemporary couples. What hasn't changed, however, is the comprehensiveness of the material, which helps readers to maximise their chances of becoming pregnant using natural means, wherever possible, and the wide range of illustrative material.
