A few facts:

• One in five New Zealanders are affected by infertility
• Infertility is most simply defined as not being able to achieve conception after a year of unprotected intercourse, or not being able to carry pregnancies to a live birth
• Infertility is a medical condition and is recognised as a disease by the World Health Organisation
• Infertility is often thought to be a "women's problem" but approximately 30% of infertility is male factors, 30% is female factors, 30% is both and 10% unexplained
