赴美護照要求6個月以上的有效期。在美國護照一旦丟失，辦理過程非常麻煩，而且時間非常長久，大概需要3個月到半年的辦理週期，這麼長的時間是無法回國的，所以一定要妥善保存。
芝加哥的娛樂
芝加哥地處美國中西部，屬於伊利諾伊州，美國第三大城市，城市規模僅此於紐約，洛杉磯。是在密歇根湖邊建造起來的國際大都會，也是美國重要的金融，文化中心，是全球最大的金融衍生品交易市場。
千禧公園
這個市中心的公園不大，裡面最有名的是一個110噸重的不銹鋼“雲門”（雲門），因為形狀如一個大豆子，故得一小名“豆豆”（Bean）。雲門遠遠看去就像是一滴大水銀一樣，因為它採用拋光不銹鋼製成，所以城市的全貌全都映入其中。幾年前它一向公眾展示後立刻就成為了芝加哥新的城市地標之一。準備好你的相機，站在雲門前，拍下鏡面中無數個的自己和融合在一起的芝加哥景色吧。千禧公園裡還有一個15米高的噴泉，路邊的行人很可能被拍下，投射到高高的噴泉畫幕上，噴泉就是從畫幕上行人的嘴裡吐出來的哦。公園到了夏天還常常舉行免費音樂會。
吃的地方

- Who acupuncturists work with – Acupuncture can be helpful to support both female and male fertility by increasing blood flow to the reproductive organs, balancing hormones, reducing inflammation, and improving sleep and stress. Patients with unexplained infertility, high stress, or those seeking to improve their outcomes with ART (such as IVF) can also benefit from adding acupuncture to their care plan.

Dr. Beltsos Shares Her Story with Authority Magazine
“Create A Team Of People That Help Get Your Patient To Their Goal” With Dr. Beltsos
Interview with: Bianca L. Rodriguez, Ed.M, LMFT, Authority Magazine, October 1, 2018
Can you tell us a story about what brought you to this specific career path?
One of the things that brought me to this career was when I was a medical student walking the halls of Michigan State University clinical campus in Saginaw Michigan. As I was in the hospital, I walked by a door with the words IVF lab. I thought to myself what a spectacular thing going on in that room! They are helping people create their families and could there be anything more magnificent? At that moment I decided I would apply for my obstetrics and gynecological Residency. Specifically at a place that would give me a good chance of getting the competitive spot in reproductive endocrinology training called a fellowship that would follow. Being involved in this area and space of science and medicine has been an amazing life opportunity.

Can This Test Tell You When You Should Have a Baby? Article by: Sally Holmes, Marie Claire, October 1, 2018
Celmatix’s Fertilome fertility test checks your DNA for gene variants that might affect your reproductive health.
I’ve always thought about my “fertility” in a nebulous, romantic kind of way—I want two kids, maybe three if it’s financially viable; I’d want them to be close-ish in age, a boy and a girl, if I had a choice. I put fertility quotation marks because I’d never call it that, but of course, that’s exactly what it is.
