C# filtering a collection of objects

I'm writing a method which returns a collection of ProductPeriod objects based on the following filters:

DateTime? from
DateTime? to
bool? includeActive
bool? includeInactive

The ProductPeriod object looks like this:

public class ProductPeriod
{
    public int Id { get; set; }
    public string Name
    public DateTime StartDate { get; set; }
    public DateTime EndDate { get; set; }
    public bool IsActive { get; set; }
}

So the idea is, that the client can select a to date and/or a from date and/or include active periods and/or include inactive periods. This gives quite a lot of scenarios for the filtering which makes for quite a large method, which I started writing (and didn't finish yet):

public IEnumerable<ProductPeriod> GetFilteredProductPeriods(DateTime? from,     DateTime? to, bool? includeActive, bool? includeInactive)
{            
    // 1. from date only
    if(from.HasValue && to == null && includeActive == null && includeInactive == null)
        return _entities.ProductPeriods.Where(x => x.StartDate >= from.Value).ToList();

    // 2. from and to date
    if(from.HasValue && to.HasValue && includeActive == null && includeInactive == null)
        return _entities.ProductPeriods.Where(x => x.StartDate >= from.Value && x.EndDate <= to.Value).ToList();

    // 3. to date only
    if (to.HasValue && from == null && includeActive == null && includeInactive == null)
        return _entities.ProductPeriods.Where(x => x.EndDate <= to.Value).ToList();

    // 4. from date and show active
    if (from.HasValue && (includeActive != null && includeActive.Value) && to == null && includeInactive == null)
        return _entities.ProductPeriods.Where(x => x.StartDate >= from.Value && x.IsActive).ToList();

    // 5. from, to and show active
    if (from != null && to != null && (includeActive != null && includeActive.Value) && includeInactive == null)
        return _entities.ProductPeriods.Where(x => x.StartDate >= from.Value && x.EndDate <= to.Value && x.IsActive).ToList();

    // 6. to date and show active
    if (to.HasValue && (includeActive != null && includeActive.Value) && from == null && includeInactive == null)
        return _entities.ProductPeriods.Where(x => x.EndDate <= to.Value && x.IsActive).ToList();

    // 7. .... and so on, so forth..
}

I'm wondering if there's a better/smarter way to do this, that I'm not aware of? I.e. some kind of generic way? :-)

Thanks in advance.
