American Society for Reproductive Medicine  

Definition

  • Founded in 1944 in Chicago, Illinois, as the American Fertility Society, the American Society for Reproductive Medicine (ASRM) was originally composed of a small group of fertility experts who were the first physicians to perform many of the standard procedures used by modern fertility specialists, including donor insemination and in vitro fertilization. Through the years, ASRM members have developed new approaches to contraception and ovulation induction and have helped promote key legislation related to reproductive rights.
