Several ladies in the IF thread have read or are reading this book, but it has good information for those not dealing with IF, too. We talked about a discussion thread so I thought I'd get it going.
The book is a fairly quick read (I read it in 1 day of airport travel) and is broken down into sections, so I thought I'd post a few discussion questions from each section so no matter where you are in the book you can contribute. We can copy/paste the question(s) we want to discuss in our posts. Add your own questions, too!
The book can be found here: It Starts With the Egg.
Description via Amazon:
"Whether you are trying to conceive naturally or through IVF, the quality of your eggs will have a powerful impact on how long it takes you to get pregnant and whether you face an increased risk of miscarriage. Poor egg quality is emerging as the single most important cause of age-related infertility, recurrent miscarriage, and failed IVF cycles. It is also a major contributor to infertility in PCOS.
Based on a comprehensive investigation of a vast array of scientific research, It Starts with the Egg reveals a groundbreaking new approach for improving egg quality and fertility. With a concrete strategy that includes minimizing exposure to toxins such as BPA and phthalates, choosing the right vitamins and supplements to safeguard developing eggs, and harnessing nutritional advice shown to boost IVF success rates, this book offers practical solutions that will help you get pregnant faster and deliver a healthy baby."
