Infertility affects an estimated 6.1 million women in the United States. Although more than 1.2 million women seek medical care for infertility each year, the majority drop out of the treatment process before achieving a successful pregnancy. An expert panel of five reproductive endocrinologists developed the Individualized Infertility Care Plan model to aid obstetrician-gynecologists and primary care physicians in streamlining the critical period encompassing diagnosis and initial treatment of the patient with uncomplicated infertility. The model emphasizes the importance of the physician's establishing a strong, lasting relationship with the infertile patient.
在美国,估计有610万女性受不孕症影响。尽管每年有超过120万女性因不孕症寻求医疗护理,但大多数人在成功怀孕前就退出了治疗过程。一个由五位生殖内分泌学家组成的专家小组制定了个性化不孕症护理计划模型,以帮助妇产科医生和初级保健医生简化包括诊断和初步治疗单纯性不孕症患者在内的关键时期。该模型强调医生与不孕患者建立牢固、持久关系的重要性。
