Accelerated Fertility Treatment Leads To Shortened Time To Pregnancy And Cost Savings
A major new trial recently published in the journal Fertility and
Sterility shows that for couples beginning infertility treatments,
an accelerated path to in-vitro fertilization (IVF) can offer a

lowered risk of multiple births. For the first time, these results
demonstrate that the long held treatment combining fertility
injections with insemination (IUI) does not have a place in
infertility treatments today.
