best advocates as they navigate fertility treatments and highs and lows of their infertility journey. Author Heather Huhman guides readers through every stage of the process—from knowing when to seek medical advice to parenting after infertility, and everything in between. There's the medical nitty gritty: getting a diagnosis (or not); selecting a fertility clinic that's right for you; understanding IUI and IVF and genetic testing; a comprehensive list of medications and their side effects, and much more. There are emotional high and lows: staying hopeful while managing grief and depression, maintaining and strengthening your relationship, and navigating religious and ethical concerns. And then there is the practical and often complicated questions around affording treatments, dealing with your workplace (including the military), and everything you need to know about insurance and fertility treatments. Stronger Than Infertility breaks down complicated clinical information and expert medical advice from top specialists in the field. The book includes first-person stories and hard-won advice from women who have been down this long and often painful road (Huhman included) and offers a clear-eyed look at the emotional and psychological landmines that come with the journey. The result is a book that inspires as much as it educates and is a much-needed source of support and inspiration for readers hungry for understanding and hopeMore than meets the eye: what blindness brings to art

laissent en héritage leurs deuils non faits, leurs traumatismes non «digérés», leurs secrets. Or, si les choses ne sont pas dites, le corps, lui, peut parfois les exprimer: c'est la somatisation. Le corps de l'enfant, du petit-enfant, de l'arrière-petit-enfant, quel que soit son âge, devient alors le langage de l'ancêtre blessé, la «parole» de ses traumatismes. Il est donc nécessaire de «sortir le cadavre du placard», de décoder et de soigner les plaies non refermées. Pour se libérer -enfin- du «froid» que l'on portait en soi. » -- 4e de couvCe que les femmes doivent savoir: traitement hormonal substitutif, la fin d'un mythe

milieu médical : d'un côté les épidémiologistes invoquent les risques accrus de cancers du sein et de maladies cardiovasculaires, de l'autre certains gynécologues dénoncent le mauvais procès fait à un traitement qui améliore le confort des femmes et parlent de diabolisation antiféministe. Cette polémique, largement médiatisée, a plongé des millions de femmes dans le désarroi : doivent-elles, oui ou non, suivre le THS ? Parce qu'elle se pose la question, comme toutes les femmes qui ont dépassé la quarantaine, Martine Perez a mené une enquête approfondie. En se voulant le plus objective possible, elle raconte l'histoire de ce traitement, ses bénéfices incontestables sur certains points (les bouffées de chaleur et l'ostéoporose) comme ses fausses promesses (rêves de jeunesse quasi éternelle qui, pendant trente ans, ont fait la fortune de nombreux laboratoires) et ses vrais risques (cancer du sein). -- 4e de couvSeven-tenths: love, piracy, and science at sea (Leapsci)

est une mise à l'épreuve des individus et du couple lui-même. Quant à l'enfant à naître, il effectue un tumultueux voyage vers notre monde. Comment prépare-t-on ce délicat passage du foetus au petit humain ? Quel rôle jouent les professionnels à la maternité ? Pourquoi y rencontre-t-on désormais des psys ? Un obstétricien et un psychanalyste, s'appuyant sur leur expérience de cliniciens, dépassent le clivage du corps et de l'esprit pour explorer, dans un dialogue sans jargon, les temps forts de la grossesse, de la naissance et de l'accueil du nouveau-né. Ils permettent ainsi aux couples d'aborder plus sages et mieux armés ces neuf mois cruciaux, les relations avec les professionnels de santé et les premiers moments de leur vie de famille. Parents virtuels et confirmés, professionnels en formation ou chevronnés trouveront dans cet ouvrage non pas des réponses standardisées mais des éléments de réflexion pour mieux accueillir un enfant.
