We've come a long way, baby.

So, Dr. Knotman, what else does your book cover?

This is something that prospective parents, women who want to have children, it's really important for them to read about.

What else does your book cover?

And it's an emotional process.

And if somebody's having to go through fertility treatments, that is not inexpensive.

And because I've heard of people actually getting, say, a HELOC on their home, getting a second mortgage just to pay for this sort of thing.

What is the average cost for fertility treatments?

Mm-hmm.

And that's just one cycle, am I correct?

That is one cycle, yeah.

Okay.

And one cycle is how long?

Okay.

So it's not an inexpensive process.

We need assistance.

And it's amazing how so many things with women and their health, the insurance companies would say it's elective.

They wouldn't pay for, say, birth control pills, but they'd pay for Viagra for a man.

It's like, okay, if you don't pay for the Viagra for the man, then you won't need the birth control pills, right?

Yeah.
