Rewinding Your Biological Clock Motherhood Late in Life

In 1996, Dr. Richard Paulson assisted a 63-year-old woman to conceive using in vitro fertilization with a donor egg, and she became the oldest woman in the world to give birth. This incredible example of how assisted reproductive technologies, or ART, can change the course of nature raises tough biological, emotional, and ethical issues.
 
Rewinding Your Biological Clock is a unique exploration of each of these issues, especially the “how-to” of peri- and post-menopausal pregnancy. Written by a leading fertility specialist and a health educator, this original and daring book rethinks society’s most fundamental beliefs about motherhood, aging, and life itself.

Richard J. Paulson, MD, is Chief, Division of Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility at USC and Director of University of Southern California Infertility Center. He is perhaps the leading authority on egg donation in the United States.
