iReport —Posted, Wednesday, April 28, 2010

1 out of every 8 couples struggles with infertility. This piece seeks to put a real face and name to the very real disease of infertility, and what it's like for millions of people in the country who cope with infertility every day. This video was made as part of ProjectIF for National Infertility Awareness Week, which runs through this Saturday, May 1. After today's successful congressional briefing on infertility with the CDC, members of Congress, and RESOLVE, the National Infertility Association, this piece is vital to spreading awareness for a healthcare issue that affects over 7 million people in this country.

Infertility exacts an enormous toll on both the affected individuals and on society. Women and men in their most active and productive years are distracted by the physical, financial and emotional hardships of this disease. Infertility is more than a disease, it is a devastating life crisis which can greatly impact the health, relationships, job performance and social interactions. Added to the emotional and physical toll exacted by infertility is the financial burden carried by many seeking treatment.

RESOLVE aims to ease that burden by providing comprehensive information on insurance coverage for infertility and alternative options for making your infertility affordable.
