2006 Assisted Reproduction Resource Directory & Handbook
The 2006 ART Resource Directory!
INCIID ART Resource Directory — 2006 Edition
Published by the InterNational Council on Infertility Information Dissemination (INCIID), this 136-page directory represents one of the most comprehensive patient-focused resources on Assisted Reproductive Technology ever compiled by a nonprofit patient advocacy organization. Written by leading reproductive endocrinologists, embryologists, mental health professionals, and legal experts, it covers the full spectrum of the infertility journey — from diagnosis and treatment through pregnancy loss, third-party reproduction, adoption, and emotional coping.
While published in 2006, much of the clinical and educational content remains highly relevant today. Articles on embryo selection, endometrial receptivity, FSH testing, PGD, ovarian cryopreservation, IUI, and surgical techniques provide foundational knowledge that continues to inform patient decision-making. The directory also includes timeless guidance on the emotional and relational dimensions of infertility, complementary therapies, and navigating the legal landscape of donor eggs and embryo donation.
Topics covered include: Nutrition and fertility, environmental factors, Day 3 vs. Day 5 embryo transfer, ovarian cryopreservation, FSH testing, immunological implantation failure, embryo selection, endometrial receptivity, PGD and pregnancy loss, multiple pregnancy risks, adoption, embryo donation, donor eggs, reproductive ethics, human cloning, acupuncture and herbal medicine, mind-body approaches, relationship and sexual health during infertility, robotic and minimally invasive surgical techniques, and a state-by-state directory of reproductive professionals.
Contributing authors include Drs. Geoffrey Sher, Serena Chen, Kutluk Oktay, Harvey Kliman, Angie Beltsos, Randine Lewis, and many others from INCIID’s distinguished Medical and Professional Advisory Board. Download the 2006 ART Directory or browse online. The PDF is 12.7MB)
