Beschreibung
If you've struggled to sustain a viable pregnancy - The Working Womb is for you. Understand why miscarriages happen - and what you can do to prevent this.
Dr. Kofinas, one of America's leading high-risk pregnancy experts, explains how to ANTICIPATE pregnancy obstacles with foreknowledge; MINIMIZE the chances of their worsening and CORRECT them in good time BEFORE they get big enough to threaten your pregnancy with disaster.
In plain language that can be understood by readers with no scientific education, he explains how fetal deaths, recurrent miscarriage and women's cardiovascular disease all relate to the placenta, an organ that grows in the uterus during pregnancy.
Drawing on thousands of patient files amassed at his New York clinic, he shares true stories of women who were close to believing a successful pregnancy was beyond them. These inspiring, readable, intimate case summaries tell how, with diagnostic and treatment methods based on placenta science, healthy babies were born despite severe pregnancy complications. ("Today my office walls and files are full of photos of their thriving children.")

The Working Womb is a powerfully human statement, by a physician who has devoted the bulk of his working life to saving fetal lives, that challenges us to re-evaluate our conventional thinking about how pregnancy works and should be managed.
The Working Womb explains what the placenta is, how it's formed, and its profound effects, what it needs to work successfully, how its problems relate to various types of pregnancy failure, and how the timely, responsive monitoring of placenta development can prevent disaster and address womb crises in time to save the pregnancy. The book is aimed primarily at women experiencing or anticipating pregnancy complications, but it will also be invaluable for their families, as well as for physicians, including obstetricians.
Dr. Kofinas believes that the US has failed pregnant women for years, resulting in the needless deaths of thousands of babies. He holds the medical establishment to account for "shrugging off" America's high rate of miscarriage, which he attributes to "placenta science illiteracy" among health insurers and doctors.
The Working Womb was also written to expose the woeful quality of medical care being provided to women who experience pregnancy complications. "Because of my long frustration and exhaustion with trying to change the stubborn habits of the medical profession, in the face of the pressure of powerful health insurance companies whose interests are served by resisting change, I decided to write a book that speaks directly to patients. It's time women who struggle to sustain a pregnancy know the truth about the healthcare system. The only way this unacceptable position will be changed is if women educate themselves about proper placenta care and speak out to demand it."
