Fertility Experts Present New Research Showing Broad Public Support for IVF Access, Insurance Mandates at ASRM’s Annual Congress & Expo

Findings show majority of survey participants support state-mandated insurance coverage for IVF across party lines

Researchers highlight urgent need for bipartisan advocacy to protect fertility care

San Antonio, TX—At the 2025 ASRM Scientific Congress & Expo, researchers presented new data revealing how Americans’ political affiliations and sociodemographic backgrounds shape their views on access to in vitro fertilization (IVF) and insurance coverage for fertility care. The study, “O-23: A Closer Look at Public Opinion of IVF Access and Insurance Coverage: Variations by Political Affiliation and Sociodemographic Factors,” shows a majority of survey participants support state-mandated IVF insurance coverage across party lines, highlighting the urgent need for bipartisan advocacy to protect fertility care.

“Public support for IVF access and insurance coverage is high overall, but varies significantly by political affiliation, education level, and race/ethnicity. Given that nearly 30 million Americans have experienced infertility, these findings highlight the need for inclusive and bipartisan advocacy efforts to promote equitable access to reproductive technologies,” write the authors.

Fertility Experts Present New Research Showing Impact of Wildfire Smoke on Fertility and Pregnancy at ASRM’s Annual Congress & Expo

Findings show preconception exposure to wildfire smoke linked to sperm quality, higher rates of pregnancy complications

Washington, DC—At the 2025 ASRM Scientific Congress & Expo, researchers presented new data revealing that exposure to wildfire smoke may negatively impact reproductive health. The studies show exposure to wildfire smoke is linked to a decline in sperm count and quality and an increase in pregnancy complications, underscoring the health consequences of worsening air quality and climate change.

The two articles each explore a different aspect of how exposure to wildfire smoke impacts fertility and pregnancy outcomes:

O-57: The Effects of Wildfire Smoke Exposure on Semen Parameters at the Time of Intrauterine Insemination
O-184: Association Between Preconception High-Intensity Wildfire Smoke Exposure and Adverse Pregnancy Outcomes

“Wildfire smoke is a growing environmental and public health threat, and these findings raise substantial concern that its effects extend to reproductive health as well. As climate-driven events intensify, protecting fertility and maternal health must be part of the public health conversation,” said ASRM President-Elect Dr. Robert Brannigan.

Fertility Experts Present New Research Showing Impact of Insurance Coverage on IVF Outcomes at ASRM’s Annual Congress & Expo

Insurance mandates and coverage for IVF associated with increased live birth rates, higher treatment utilization

San Antonio, TX—At the 2025 American Society for Reproductive Medicine (ASRM) Scientific Congress & Expo, researchers presented new data revealing the impact of insurance mandates and coverage for in vitro fertilization (IVF) on treatment utilization and live birth rates. The studies show that when covered by insurance, IVF opens the door for more families to grow, regardless of financial means or medical challenges.

The two articles each explore a different aspect of how insurance policies impact IVF usage and outcomes:

O-215: Assessing the Impact of State-Mandated Medically Indicated Fertility Preservation Policies On Treatment Utilization.
O-224: Insurance Coverage and IVF Outcomes in the United States: A National Claims-Based Study of Privately Insured Patients.

“Everyone who wants to be able to start a family should have access to the life-changing fertility care that makes it possible, regardless of their income. And no one should have to choose between cancer treatment and the chance to start a family. Insurance mandates for IVF are a critical tool in helping cancer patients start their families,” said Joyce Reinecke, Executive Director of the Alliance for Fertility Preservation.

Fertility Experts Present New Research Showing How Health, Diet, Environment Influence IVF and Pregnancy Outcomes at ASRM’s Annual Congress & Expo

Findings show nutrition counseling, green space access, neighborhood conditions significantly influence fertility, pregnancy health

Researchers underscore growing evidence that environmental, lifestyle factors are key to reproductive well-being

San Antonio, TX—At the 2025 American Society for Reproductive Medicine (ASRM) Scientific Congress & Expo, researchers presented new data revealing how factors such as nutrition, environmental exposures, and neighborhood conditions shape fertility, IVF success, and overall pregnancy health.

The three articles each explore a different aspect of how individual and community health factors influence reproductive outcomes:

O-129: The Impact of Nutrition Intervention on Reproductive Outcomes of Women Undergoing In Vitro Fertilization (IVF): A Retrospective Matched Cohort Study of 3,919 IVF Cycles.
O-183: Residential Greenness and Ovarian Reserve: New Insights into Environmental Inequities in Reproductive Health.
O-222: Associations of Neighborhood Deprivation with Gestational Weight Gain and Inflammatory Biomarkers: The Environment and Reproductive Health (EARTH) Study.
