Air Force invests in infertility solutions

The Air Force has made a significant investment to help military couples combat infertility.

MFB Fertility Inc. accepted a $1.3 million contract with AFWERX Thursday to provide Proov, a progesterone testing kit, to military couples attempting to conceive.

Women serving in the military are about three times as likely to experience infertility as women in the general population, according to the Service Women’s Action Network, which conducted an online survey of service women in early 2018 Some 37 percent of currently serving women reported fertility issues. That’s compared to a national average of about 12%.
