The prompt recognition and management of medical problems occurring in the first trimester can significantly improve the health and outcomes of mother and baby. Early Pregnancy was the first book to embrace a multidisciplinary approach to this rapidly growing field. It combines the expertise of a wide range of internationally renowned authors to produce an authoritative reference on the subject. This new and updated edition reflects the latest changes in the field in response to changing clinician needs, such as COVID 19 infections and novel 3D imaging techniques. Features key recommendations, providing clinicians with the tools to improve the patient's experience of the management of first-trimester complications. By combining essential elements of scientific research and clinical care, Early Pregnancy continues to set a benchmark for evidence-based management and will be essential reading for obstetricians, gynaecologists, neonatologists, ultrasonographers, and nurses seeking an understanding of the reproductive science of early pregnancy.
This new edition of Early Pregnancy brings together all topics relevant to the care of first-trimester patients at a time that Early Pregnancy Units cope with high increases in demand. This book is a benchmark for evidence-based management, providing key recommendations which give clinicians the tools to improve the patient's experience.

Dr Roy G Farquharson was born and educated in Aberdeen, Scotland, UK (MB. ChB. 1975). He is Past Chair of the European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology (ESHRE, 2017-19). He worked at Liverpool Women's Hospital from 1986 2015. Dr. Stephenson has promoted evidence-based management of recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) for over three decades. She published extensively on the genetics of miscarriage and collaborated on the pioneering work of discovering 'miscarriage genes'. Dr. Stephenson was awarded Fellow Ad Eundem by the RCOG for advancing the field of RPL. Prof dr Mariëtte Goddijn is reproductive gynaecologist at Amsterdam UMC. She supervised several recurrent pregnancy loss trials and was coordinator of the Board of the Special Interest Group 'Early Pregnancy' (ESHRE 2012-2014) and Coordinator of the european guideline 'Recurrent Pregnancy Loss' (ESHRE 2017-2022).
