This week, Syd and Jess are here to talk all about IVF, fertility treatments, IUI, and all of the other topics that fall under the umbrella of Assisted Reproductive Technology. According to the CDC, about 1 out of every 5 people trying to conceive a child are unable to do so within a year, and that’s what they call infertility. 10-30% of infertility cases are considered unexplained, but science is now playing a huge role in helping people conceive!
