What Is Infertility, Anyway?
"Infertility is a disease that affects the reproductive organs of both men and women, impairing one of the body’s most basic functions: the ability to have children. However, just like lung cancer and HIV/AIDS, infertility can often be prevented. Decisions and choices that you make in your teens and twenties can affect your fertility for years to come."
