Check out all of the upcoming walks of hope at resolve.org!

April is #adenomyosis awareness month, and it’s so important to advocate for yourself and seek out the medical care you deserve, and people who will listen to you and believe you.

Thank you for sharing this, @healthyivf:

“And it actually feels pretty good.

I’ve struggled a lot with my post surgery report. It seems like it was a mile long. I always felt like something more was wrong. Like we weren’t digging deep enough. Like we were missing something. And I was right.

Hearing the long list of issues my surgeon found during my surgery was validating. It validated my feelings. My intuitions. My fears. My pain. My frustrations. My journey. My questions about our losses and our failed transfers.

It wasn’t all in my head. My body wasn’t “perfect”. It was struggling and I just had no proof. Because from the outside, it looked fine. But I knew something was wrong.

Always ask questions. Always push for answers. Always follow your gut and get a second opinion if you need to. Find a doctor who will advocate for you. Validate your feelings and fears. If something doesn’t feel right, it probably isn’t.

I’ve been sitting on this news for a while. Popping birth control pills every morning so I don’t have to make a decision about next steps. I’m truthfully still in shock that I have endo and adeno. That I’m now tubeless and sterile.

All we can do is keep pushing forward and continue to advocate for ourselves and this community. Thanks for pushing me, ladies. The lap was the best decision I’ve made so far during our three year journey. To have your support and the support of my care team means the world.”

STATEMENT🚨
RESOLVE: The National Infertility Association on CDC Cuts Impacting Assisted Reproductive Technologies (Including IVF)

April 1, 2025 — Barbara Collura, President and CEO of RESOLVE: The National Infertility Association, issued the following statement in response to the CDC layoffs impacting #IVF:

“It is vital that the CDC, our nation’s public health agency, employs doctors and scientists who understand infertility, a disease that impacts one in six people worldwide. Following today’s layoffs at the CDC, there will be no experts on infertility who will be able to inform public policy, brief members of Congress, publish articles and reports, and advance public awareness on the causes and treatments for infertility. RESOLVE is deeply concerned by this development and what it means for those who struggle to build their family.”

We’re so close to having all 50 states represented in this year’s Virtual Federal Advocacy Day— but if you live in Arkansas, Oklahoma, or Wyoming, we still need YOU!

When YOU speak up, Congress listens. Whether or not your state already has advocates, your district might still need representation—and that can make all the difference in shaping federal policy. We have 241 districts covered, but we want to make sure every voice in every district is heard.

🔎 Check out our map to see if your state or district is represented. If not, now’s your chance to make your voice part of the conversation!

OREGON RESIDENTS: ACT NOW! 📣 UPDATE: We have a new bill to advocate for, SB 535.

What changed?

Unfortunately, the Chair of the House Health Care Committee did not advance HB 2959 before the deadline – we’re up against powerful insurance companies who are opposing our effort to expand this vital family building care, but we will keep fighting to get this done.

There's some good news though...

We were ready for the insurance companies' opposition and thankfully have a strong champion in the Oregon State Senate who is ready to fight for IVF access in Oregon. Sen. Deb Patterson chairs the Senate Health Care Committee, and she has scheduled SB 535 (the same language as 2959) for a hearing and vote on April 3rd.

Here's how you can help ⬇️

1️⃣OREGON WE NEED YOUR TESTIMONIES! Right now we need to get as much testimony on the public record in support of SB 535 as we can. You can submit testimony right now until April 5th at 3:00 PM. See the 🔗 in our Linktree.

2️⃣Send a personalized email to the Senate Health Committee, asking them to support SB 535, which will help expand family building care. We've made it easier for you in the 🔗 in our Linktree.

3️⃣Consider registering for the in-person Oregon Family Building Act Advocacy Day on March 31st! Advocates will be gathering in Salem to meet with lawmakers and share their stories to make sure they know the kind of impact this vital legislation would have on Oregonians. The day includes a legislative advocacy training to equip you with everything you need to meet with legislators and advocate for SB 535. Register via the 🔗 in our Linktree.

4️⃣ RESHARE THIS POST. Share with anyone else in Oregon who may be willing to support these efforts.

PSA: Don’t do it.

April 1st is a few days away, so this is our yearly reminder that fake pregnancy announcements are never funny, and definitely aren’t funny on April Fools’ Day. These “jokes” can be incredibly hurtful to the millions of Americans who are struggling to build a family or who have endured pregnancy loss.

It’s time to stop with the pranks and start with the support. 🧡

To learn how you can support those around you who may struggle with building their family, visit us at resolve.org.

It’s time to play your hand.

Together, we can highlight the courage it takes to navigate the twists and turns of infertility. And with the right support and resources, no one has to face this journey alone. Let’s make #NIAW 2025 a week to remember. Are you all in?

National Infertility Awareness Week® is April 20-26. 👀 the Linktree 🔗in our bio for how to get involved.

Visit resolve.org for more resources about endometriosis.

“March is Endometriosis Awareness Month🎗️It takes an average of 7-10 years to get a diagnosis, it took me 13. Endometriosis affects about 1 in 10 women and doesn’t get the proper funding or education it deserves. I endured 13 years of chronic pain before having a doctor believe me and listen to me. I was told majority of my life that my pain was “normal”, this “wasn’t a big deal”, I was “needing attention” and “you must just have a low pain tolerance”. Having endometriosis means showing strength every day & using our voices to raise awareness.”

Act Now Georgia State Residents📣

Tomorrow, March 26th, at 9:30 am, the Georgia House Judiciary Committee has scheduled a hearing for HB 441, the Prenatal Equal Protection Act.

What is HB 441?

HB 441 defines a “human being” to include “a living human and an unborn child at every stage of development from fertilization until birth.”

How could this bill impact access to IVF?

This bill has implications that pose a serious threat to the legality of the delivery of fertility care treatments. In other words, this bill could prevent doctors from being able to practice in vitro fertilization (IVF) in accordance with the best standards of medical care.

We need to remind lawmakers to keep #IVF legal and available in the state by raising our collective voices.

Here's how you can help ⬇️

1. Share this post! Whether you're in Georgia or not, spreading the word helps expand our call for action.
2. If you are a Georgia resident, please send this email directly to the House Judiciary Committee. We've made it easy with this🔗in our Linktree bio.
