Human Reproduction (2019 IF: 5.733) features full-length, peer-reviewed papers reporting original research, concise clinical case reports, as well as opinions and debates on topical issues.
Papers published cover the clinical science and medical aspects of reproductive physiology, pathology and endocrinology; including andrology, gonad function, gametogenesis, fertilization, embryo development, implantation, early pregnancy, genetics, genetic diagnosis, oncology, infectious disease, surgery, contraception, infertility treatment, psychology, ethics and social issues.
The highest scientific and editorial standards are maintained, along with a rapid rate of peer review and publication.
