About Debbi Craig Expertise I am available to answer questions about both primary and secondary infertility diagnosis, testing, many procedures such as HSG, artificial insemination, IUI, IVF, GIFT, medications such as clomid, pergonal, lupron, herbal and natural approaches to increase fertility, and can also offer assistance with how to cope with the diagnosis of infertility.
Experience I have dealt with secondary infertility, done extensive research, and written about infertility for over five years now. I am currently writing about infertility on two different websites, and instruct a course "Introduction to Infertility" online as well.
Publications TTC Dreams - A website created for women and couples that are looking for information about trying to conceive and infertility.

Just some additional info:
- Basal body temperature has proven to be highly highly inaccurate, so don't bother with it.
- The average couple requires approximately 6 ovulatory cycles to conceive, and many require up to one year (1 in 10) or even longer, so don't stress too much.
- While upsetting to say the least, a miscarriage is still a pregnancy. This means that you and your partner have working anatomy and a very good chance of successful conception in the future.
- Best of luck, and remember to enjoy life with you partner outside of attempting conception.
