Infertility Risk Assessment Screen

Did you know at least 50 percent of infertile couples overcome their infertility problem to conceive and give birth? This means there is hope for anyone on the emotional roller coaster ride of trying to get pregnant. Many couples with undiagnosed infertility try for months or even years to get pregnant to no avail. If you are a female trying to conceive, this informal quiz is designed to help you decide whether you should seek help from a fertility specialist now.

Although many people find it difficult to admit they are infertile, it helps to remind yourself that a diagnosis of infertility does not mean you will never give birth.
