The prevalence of infertility in Nigeria is high. Infertility inflicts devastating effects on affected couples or individuals. The effects include psychological stress, anxiety and depression. Treatments using assisted reproductive techniques are expensive and are not always successful. Unfortunately, prevention of infertility receives little or no attention. Dr Jude Adeghe, founder and director of St Jude Hospital and Clinics believes that prevention is an important part in the management of infertility. He makes the valid point that the goal of public health is to reduce disease and disability through prevention and health promotion. In this concise and highly informative book Dr Adeghe outlines key strategies for prevention of infertility and reducing the burden associated with it. The book is a 'must read' for young men and women in colleges and universities so they are sensitized to the importance of taking responsibility to preserve their fertility and avoiding those habits and lifestyles that are harmful to fertility. Dr Jude Adeghe specialises in obstetrics, gynaecology, and reproductive medicine. He has hospitals and clinics in the United Kingdom and Nigeria.
