We want to provide you with as much information as possible. So, in addition to the information available on our site, we are making these convenient links available to you. The following links will connect you to sites that offer you official, up-to-date and comprehensive information about the latest in infertility and assisted reproductive technologies. See the brief descriptions below and click on the site that will best meet your needs.

American Society for Reproductive Medicine (ASRM)

American Society for Reproductive Medicine (ASRM) is a voluntary, non-profit organization devoted to advancing knowledge and expertise in reproductive medicine and biology. Physicians join ASRM as members and must demonstrate the high ethical principles of the medical profession, have an interest in reproductive medicine and biology, and adhere to the objectives of the Society. This site includes information on ASRM meetings, services for patients, health and media professionals, available literature and the ASRM Office of Government and Media Relations.

Centers for Disease Control (CDC)

The CDC publishes pregnancy success rates for fertility clinics in the United States. Co-authored by CDC, SART/ASRM, and RESOLVE, the 2001 report (the most recent one issued) is based on data collected by SART on the number and outcome of assisted reproductive technology (ART) cycles performed at U.S. clinics in 2001. The goal of the report is to provide some of the information potential ART users need to make informed decisions about their care.

RESOLVE

The National Infertility Association since 1974 has provided help to thousands of people experiencing infertility. RESOLVE's mission is to provide timely, compassionate support and information through advocacy and public education to individuals who are experiencing infertility issues. The site provides information on their much-used helpline, fact sheets and literature, local support chapters, advocacy updates and more.

The American Infertility Association

The American Infertility Association, headquartered in New York City, is a national organization dedicated to assisting women and men facing decisions related to family building and reproductive health--from prevention and treatment to social and psychological concerns. The mission of the AIA is to serve as a lifetime resource for men and women needing reproductive information and support and to forward the causes of adoption and reproductive health through advocacy, education, awareness building and research funding.

Fertile Hope

Fertile Hope is a national nonprofit organization dedicated to providing reproductive information, support and hope to cancer patients whose medical treatments present the risk of infertility. The organization was founded in 2001 by cancer survivor Lindsay Nohr as a result of her own endeavors to preserve her fertility in the face of critical cancer treatments.

Fertile Hope is currently pursuing strategies in the following five areas: research, awareness, education, financial assistance and support. The organization will strive to advance fertility research, help advance the understanding of fertility risks and preservation options, allow and encourage personal educated decisions, make preservation treatments available regardless of economic status and help patients cope with important family planning issues.
