Hey, Oklahoma!
Tell your State Senators What You Want.

You were just diagnosed with cancer… and life saving treatment could impact your future ability to have a baby.

Imagine you are a woman seeking to undergo fertility preservation following a new diagnosis and your insurance company deems this procedure to be “elective”!?

As if you’d “elect” to have cancer?

Politely put = WTF!?

*This* can’t be right!

Unfortunately, in 34 of the 50 states in the U.S, this is the current reality for women seeking to put their eggs on ice for future use after their their cancer chapter is closed.

State Laws & Legislation

Many states have introduced bills that would compel insurers to cover fertility preservation procedures for cancer patients and others who are facing potential infertility as result of medical treatment.
