Human saliva displaying ferning. During the fertile phase of a woman's menstrual cycle an oestrogen surge causes salt crystals to appear in the saliva. When viewed under the microscope the crystalline salt structure resembles fern leaves and can be used as an indication of a woman's increased chances of conceiving at this time.

Basil Valentine contemplates a chemical jar containing homunculi of a man and woman holding hands, and a child emanating from them (alchemical symbol of conception); he is suddenly visited by Sabine Stuart de Chevalier, who reveals that she has the key to his works and crowns him as the king of alchemists.

<p>"Like many women today I reached a point in my life when I decided it was a good time to start a family of my own. I assumed that pregnancy would just happen when I was ready. But it didn't. I chose the IVF pathway, and here I tell my story of the emotional and psychological challenges I faced from the IVF journey itself, and of how these challenges impacted on my way of thinking and self-belief system. My confidence spiralled and alongside my eroded sense of self-worth, past experiences bubbled to the surface - experiences I had never truly accepted and moved on from. I have developed my own strategies and cognitive processes to deal with IVF issues and other emotional 'baggage'. From recognising and understanding "hormone logic", to asking myself the "5 Questions", I have survived IVF and emerged emotionally cleansed."-- Provided by publisher.</p>
