Article: As you edit copy, you'll find plenty of sentences that, while not technical wrong, are ambiguous or unclear. If these sentences can be easily corrected, do so. If you're unsure of the author's meaning, leave a note asking them to clarify. Correcting ambiguity often includes revising passive voice when it's ineffective or unintentionally obscures the subject who performs an action. For an author writing a large, complex text, it's easy for inconsistencies to intrude during the writing the process. Make sure that these details are handled consistently throughout a text. If you need to, you could even keep a running list of minor details and make sure they're consistent throughout a work. For example: For example, if a character's hair or eye color changes part way through a novel, note this. Note if the units of measurement in a technical paper shift from inches to centimeters part way through, alert the author. Whether you're editing a novel or a scientific journal article, the text should progress in a logical way. Sections and ideas should build on previously demonstrated points. Edit and move portions of the text as necessary until the progression of ideas makes sense to you and will be clear to anyone who reads the copy. For example, if an author of a science paper seems to argue for 2 different conclusions on different pages, flag this as illogical structuring. First of all, you should make sure you understand who the intended audience should be. Based on the publication type, you'll need to edit the author's language to make sure that it captures readers' attention. Most copy should address the audience without appearing to talk over their heads or talking down to readers. When you notice something related to tone and wording, be sure ask yourself whether it makes sense for the author's purpose and audience. For instance, if a medical article lacks medical jargon, think about whether it's meant for doctors and researchers or for the general public before suggesting changes. For example, if an author has written a science text for children, it should not include too many words that kids will need to look up. On the other hand, if a novelist is unintentionally using a juvenile vocabulary, suggested a few more sophisticated wording choices. If the author provides statements that claim to be factual, use resources at your disposal to confirm that these facts are accurate. A great way to begin doing this is by verifying that the source of the facts or statistics is legitimate. Check the Works Cited page and refer to the sources listed there if necessary. You can also follow up with a secondary source if you're unsure about the accuracy of something. When fact-checking online, check scholarly publications or government or educational websites. You could also use Google Scholar, but avoid resorting to sites like Wikipedia. Fact checking is especially important in nonfiction, technical, or scientific writing.

Article: This type of x-ray is called a hysterosalpingography, and most doctors recommend you have one before you are artificially inseminated. The purpose of the test is to make sure you have at least one functioning fallopian tube. Before the test, a technician will use a speculum in your vagina and then will clean out your cervix. He or she will next inject a dye into your cervix with a catheter. An x-ray is then taken with the dye in your uterus and fallopian tubes. If your tubes are open, then dye can be seen spilling out of them on the x-ray. Basically, the procedure will feel much like a pap smear. If you have abnormal results, you may need to get treatment before proceeding with insemination. It's possible you may not be able to go through with insemination at all, but your doctor will discuss your options with you. Some possible complications this test might show include obstructed fallopian tubes, scarring, polyps or tumors, intrauterine adhesion, or a development disorder in your uterus or fallopian tubes. On a positive note, the results might be normal, as well. While not all locations require this step, you may need to have tests done for sexually transmitted diseases before being inseminated. In addition, if your partner is providing sperm, he will need to be tested too. Tests can take up to a week to come back, so you'll need to do this well in advance of your insemination appointment. As you will need to be tested for a wide range of diseases, you will likely need to provide a urine sample, as well as have a swab test done of your genital area. In addition, you'll likely need a blood test. Some people choose to try insemination the first time without the addition of fertility drugs, especially if they're having normal periods. Others choose to go ahead and try fertility drugs. One of the main fertility drugs, clomiphene citrate (Clomid), works to help you release eggs when you ovulate. This drug is mainly for women who are having trouble releasing eggs at all. For example, women with PCOS often have this problem. This drug is usually taken starting at day 3 or 5 of your period, for 5 days in a row. Day 1 of your period is when first bleed. If you don't have regular periods, you may be given a drug to start your period. One consideration is that fertility drugs increase your chances of having more than one baby at once, which makes your pregnancy more dangerous. The risk of multiples with Clomid is 7%, while it is only 1% when trying to conceive without medication. Talk to your doctor about whether this drug is an appropriate choice for you.
