Infertility affects one in eight couples, and Penn State Health supports patients across many paths to parenthood. National Infertility Awareness Week is April 19–25, and the health system is marking the occasion by highlighting expanded access to fertility care:

• With the addition of Dr. Olumayowa Dayo, our Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility program now includes five specialists.
• More locations: Fertility services are available in Hershey, York and now Lancaster.

Appointments: 717‑312‑7756
