"1 in 5 couples suffer from infertility - if it were a reclassified as a disease, this is an epidemic! And childless working couples pay the most tax - it is as if they are being penalised for being childless, whether it is because they are unable to have "

"I have no intention of blasting MS. Snyderman, other than to say her ignorance certainly has disabused my intention of referring to her as "doctor." I would like to hear her comment in the same way if she were found to be experiencing infertility, or if h"

"Obviously DrSnyderman does not know what its like to be infertile!!!! I know first hand and wouldn't wish it on anyone. If she was unable to make a child, she wouldn't have said this."

"The very least standard should be equality in health care. If one is provided assistance to keep from becoming pregnant, then another should be provided assistance to get pregnant. The cost for either option is probably close to equal when looking at heal"

"Not every woman is supposed to be fertile? Who in the heck does this woman think she is? Infertility is a medical condition and should be paid for by the insurance companies!! Both the doctor and Good Morning America should be ashamed of themselves! We de"

"Infertility is a DISABILITY the last I heard. If insurance companies elected not to pay for other disabilites, you could sure bet there would be plenty of outraged consumers. Also, isn't it true that if insurance companies did cover infertility, premiums "
