Resources For
Infertile Couples

PRISCILLA LISTER
SPECIAL TO THE JEWISH NEWS

Infertility is usually defined as
the inability to become pregnant
after one year of frequent, un-
protected intercourse. Based on
that definition, from 10 percent
to 15 percent of couples are in-
fertile, according to the Emory .
Center for Reproductive Medi-
cine and Fertility at Emory Uni-
versity in Atlanta.
Of these cases, male infertili-
ty is the cause in about 30
percent, female infertility about
50 percent to 70 percent and a
combination in about 20 percent.
Treatments today include
many options.
Artificial insemination, in
which sperm provided by a part-
ner or donor are "washed" in a
laboratory and manually placed
directly into the woman's uterus
during ovulation. Artificial in-
semination is also referred to as
intrauterine insemination.
