Infertility Brochure
The government agency Assisted Human Reproduction Canada is working on several information brochures for people navigating infertility and it’s treatments. I am on the editorial committee and one of brochures we are currently working on contains basic infertility information, like it’s definition, incidence and causes.
What strikes me is that people who work in fertility might not actually know everything that the public needs/wants to know. Like an automechanic who assumes everyone can change their own oil so doesn’t explain it well.
What would you like to see in such a brochure? There are many other brochures the committee is working on, like genetic testing, donor egg, donor sperm. I’d like to get a sense of what people actually want to learn, not just what I (and committee members) think people should learn.
Drop me an email at btaylor@genesis-fertility.com if you would like to offer suggestions for the brochure, or have any other thoughts on what the misconceptions are about infertility and it’s treatment.
Thank you!
