This document summarizes a webinar on fertility presented by Dr. Gary Levy, Chief Medical Officer of Fertility Cloud. It discusses that approximately 15% of US couples are affected by infertility, with common causes being ovulation disorders, fallopian tube issues, low ovarian reserve, and sperm-related factors. It outlines treatment options including lifestyle changes, oral or injectable medications, surgery, and in-vitro fertilization (IVF). IVF success rates decline with female age but it has higher success rates than other options for certain diagnoses. Less invasive options include medications which have cumulative pregnancy rates around 40-60% depending on the diagnosis. Fertility Cloud offers online consultations and personalized treatment plans using medications
