Question
Hi there,
I was wondering if you could help me. My doctor is starting me on Gonal-F and I wanna know if its really effective or isthere something better out there. Its my first time starting these drugs and I am very confused. Hope you can help.
Thanks
I don't know anything about individual drugs for infertility treatment. I hope you can trust your doctor and talk to him about your concerns and feelings. This is a stressful situation and your doctor and staff should be most helpful in helping you feel confident in what they are trying to do for you. I wish you the best.

Expertise
Fertility is a gift from God and infertility is a hard cross to bear. I will answer questions about the morality of the various infertility treatments. Just as contraception separates the procreative from the unitive aspects of sexual intercourse, some of the ways to concieve are immoral and thus dangerous to your spiritual and emotional well-being.
Experience
Well-read and connected to various groups that recommend moral approaches to infertility treatments. I can sympathize with the pain of childlessness but also view the bigger picture. An objective discussion of your options is something to have when you are immersed in your loss.
