Infertility affects approximately 10-15% of reproductive-aged couples. This session, with speaker Tamara Tobias, WHNP-BC, ARNP, addresses infertility prevention, basic fertility evaluation, diagnosis of male and female infertility, key counseling priorities for people planning a pregnancy, and tips for effective referrals. After watching, viewers will be able to:

• Describe at least three common causes for infertility in males and females
• Identify the essential components of the male and female medical history, physical examination, and laboratory data needed to diagnose infertility
• Explain at least three pre-pregnancy counseling key points that should be discussed with clients
• Discuss Title X guidance for the provision of equitable and client-centered pre-pregnancy and infertility services

This protocol template is written with several decision points that must be addressed before the protocol is ready for use. Local agencies can use this protocol template to tailor content to their own organization. Decision points are identified as ‘NOTE‘ in the template protocol. Local agencies should only include information that reflects their own organization’s current practices.
