Dr. Ryan Riggs with the Reproductive Resource Center is going through his basics of infertility - an "Infertility 101" class. Key points:

• If you're over 35 (Dr. Simckes actually lowers that to 30) and haven't conceived in six months of trying, go see a doctor.
• Many people have multiple problems - everything from tubal issues to endometriosis to male infertility.
• 1 in 6 couples have trouble conceiving.
• Even if everything is perfect, 25-year-old women and men will only have about a 20 percent chance of getting pregnant in any given month.
• There's a range of treatment options you can consider - everything from 9-12 percent for oral medications to up to 60 percent success rates for IVF.
• In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) is Dr. Riggs' first-line treatment for long-standing infertility or severe male factor infertility.
• Fun fact of the day - five percent of babies born in Europe are the result of IVF.
• He recommends only doing three to four cycles of oral medications, injectibles or IUI before moving to IVF.
• The best treatment for you is the most conservative treatment likely to result in birth.
