For individuals hoping to become parents, difficulty conceiving a baby can be frustrating and unexpected. Infertility has become a growing concern across the United States, affecting millions of couples and individuals on their journey to parenthood.

The largest concern related to fertility treatments is the cost; causing those individuals to either go into debt, delay treatments, or not pursue parenthood at all.

The median cost of a single IVF cycle in the U.S. is $12,400.

42% of Americans have either sought fertility treatments or know someone who has.

The use of assisted reproductive technologies, including in vitro fertilization (IVF) has increased with over 91,000 babies born via IVF in 2022 alone.

What causes infertility in women?

Women need functioning ovaries, fallopian tubes, and a uterus to get pregnant. Conditions affecting any one of these organs can contribute to female infertility.

What causes infertility in men?

Infertility in men can be caused by disruption of testicular or ejaculatory function, as well as by hormonal and genetic disorders. It is typically evaluated by a semen analysis, complete medical history, and physical examination. This assessment helps determine if and how male factors are contributing to infertility.
