Hello Anonymous,
Your response is very passionate and I appreciate that you care so deeply. However, I must clarify, I was not suggesting anything. I was stating as a FACT that infertility IS a disease. It is a disease of the reproductive organs and the U. S. Supreme Court held in 1998 that infertility is a disability under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).
I am concerned that you say you are aware of studies proving cost savings of infertility treatment, yet you are not clear on what infertility is. At this time infertility treatment is not apart of the Essential Benefits package offered by Healthcare Reform. We encourage everyone to contact their legislators and ask it be included.
I would like to offer you an excellent resource to help bring you up to speed, American Society of Reproductive Medicine, www.asrm.org. You may find it extremely helpful so you could include factual information within your strong responses.
I am glad your condition is better. I am shocked, but glad, to hear you "had" endometriosis. I hope it never returns.
I hope this information was helpful to your understanding.
