Subfertility is common. Its management is almost invariably stressful. With the aid of an Upjohn Travelling Fellowship, it was hoped that a more structured role for the general practitioner could be developed, which would be adaptable for use in different areas and which would improve the management of subfertile couples. By personal visits to many hospitals and reviewing recent literature on subfertility, constructive criticism has been made of the service that is provided.The treatment of subfertility in many cases is still largely empirical. Comparative trials of the management of the subfertile are rarely available.Recommendations have been made which, it is hoped, will be studied by all those involved in the management of the subfertile. Poor communication is often the root problem, and attention has been paid to devising a remedy for this.
生育力低下很常见。其治疗几乎总是让人倍感压力。借助Upjohn旅行奖学金，希望能为全科医生制定一个更有条理的角色，使其适用于不同地区，并改善对生育力低下夫妇的治疗。通过亲自走访多家医院并查阅近期有关生育力低下的文献，对所提供的服务提出了建设性的批评。在许多情况下，生育力低下的治疗在很大程度上仍基于经验。很少有关于生育力低下治疗的对照试验。已提出了一些建议，希望所有参与生育力低下治疗的人员都能对此进行研究。沟通不畅往往是根本问题，已着手设计解决这一问题的办法。
