Additionally, it underscores challenges that clinicians endure in their own reproductive stories and their impact on therapy. With updates in research and new case examples, this edition has been expanded to offer a more holistic understanding of reproductive trauma, including expanded coverage of LGBTQ+ parents and their unique needs and experiences. It also reviews advances in reproductive technology-including cryopreservation, in vitro fertilization, and genetic testing-and considers how social and cultural factors influence parents' reproductive stories"--
