LISTEN: Treating infertility in Alaska
(Dru Kelly/Creative Commons)
Approximately one in eight couples are affected by infertility in the United States, and this number is increasing each year.
A reproductive endocrinology physician provides advanced infertility procedures. In Alaska, many patients must travel out of state for the treatment.
But Alaska does have some infertility services to bridge the gap — and provide much needed evaluation and treatment options closer to home.
