<div>Hi friends and family

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>When we were trying to have our son, Sullivan, we went through our fertility clinic and did our very first IUI. They told us the chances of success on the first try were only 10–15%, but against the odds, it worked! I took fertility medications, had a trigger shot, and used progesterone, and a few weeks later I got the call that I was pregnant. I actually found out on my mom’s birthday, which felt like such a sign that she had sent him to us.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Now, years later, we’ve been trying to give Sullivan a sibling! I have PCOS (polycystic ovary syndrome) and endometriosis, both of which make getting pregnant harder. We knew conceiving again might take time, but this time around has been much harder physically, emotionally, and financially.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Over the past two cycles, I’ve gotten pregnant through IUI twice, but both ended in early loss, known as chemical pregnancies. This means I now meet the definition of recurrent pregnancy loss. My doctor has recommended a Recurrent Pregnancy Loss (RPL) panel, a group of blood tests that looks for possible clotting disorders, genetic issues, hormone imbalances, and other causes for why this keeps happening.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>The panel was denied by insurance, even though it’s standard care after two losses. The cost for the full panel out-of-pocket is $2,009.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>This testing is important because it could find something treatable, something that could mean we can keep trying IUI instead of moving straight to IVF. It could spare us more heartbreak and give us a real plan moving forward.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>I’ve never been someone who finds it easy to ask for help, but I also know how much community matters in times like this. If you feel able to contribute toward the cost of the testing, we would be so, so grateful! Every little bit helps, and even sharing this page makes a difference!

</div>

</div>

<div>Thank you for being here for us, for caring about our family, and for helping us take this step toward finding answers.
