"infertile"
I hate hate hate this word. Especially the way it's thrown around at appointments. When I call my ins. regarding an auth hey always ask "is this related to infertility ?" I know technically it is but it makes me cringe evertime I hear it. I suggest "reproductively delayed". Anyone else have a suggestion ?

Re: "infertile"
Considering i pretty much mainly post on the IF board, I'm kind of used to it.
But it does bother me that my doctor's practice is called "XX Infertility" I feel like it should be "XX Fertility" since its focusing on the fertile side of things!!
I also hate that his letterhead has it on there. I white it out before giving in doctor's notes to work (yeah, i probably could be fired for altering a letter but i certainly dont want to submit that!! Lol)

Re: "infertile"
Great point. It should be fertility because that's what we're all working on

Re: "infertile"
Infertile is an evil term - I agree!

I do agree it should say Fertility and not Infertility. Mine is XXX Fertility.
Also, I would your doctor if they have more discrete letterhead.
