Happy 25th Birthday, INCIID.
INCIID needs a number of crucial updates to our website. Our fundraising goal is $12,000.
INCIID is a charity. We were the FIRST to launch a website dedicated to infertility on March 17, 1995. INCIID was also the first to provide professionals to interact and answer questions online for consumers.
We've been supporting the community for 25 years but now we need your help!
We only need 480 people, consumers, industry professionals, interested parties or family members to send us just $25 dollars by our March 17th birthday.
We have a plan in the works but we need to fund it in order to continue our IVF Scholarship and mission to educate and support the infertility community.

I hope you will consider helping us by donating. Please send us a Happy Birthday note and let us know how you're doing.
For more information call us at 703-379-9178 or email us.

Case Introduction
Take this mini course on the Male Reproductive System and test your anatomy knowledge at the same time.
The male reproductive system structures give men the ability to reproduce by fertilizing a woman’s egg. There are a number of organs that make up the male reproductive system.
Although infertility is commonly felt to be a female condition, a male factor often plays a significant role. Certain risk factors place a male at higher risk of having infertility including any abnormalities or issues with the testicles themselves, prior treatment for cancer, hormonal disorders, prior scrotal surgery, or even infections such a sexually transmitted disease.
What do you know about Lymphedema? If you know someone who has experienced breast or other kinds of cancer or who has unexplained swelling in their arms or legs, please watch the video and read the article.
"I was under the impression that once you decide to start a family, you toss the birth control and give it the 'old college try'. BAM! There you are in your cute maternity jeans, booking your family trip to Disney World. I was surely mistaken. The reality my husband and I suffered through years of failed infertility treatments, disappointment, and expense.
