In-vitro fertilisation
Despite government guidelines, many are still being denied NHS fertility treatment.

In 2004, the then Health Secretary, John Reid, announced that women under the age of 40 would be offered one free IVF cycle by April 2005. However, a recent survey carried out by the Infertility Network on behalf of the Department of Health, has found that thousands of people are still being denied NHS fertility treatment. Jenni will be discussing the recent findings and exploring what needs to be done to improve the situation.
