NIAW 2025 – Each year during National Infertility Awareness Week® (NIAW) r/infertility hosts a series of AMAs (Ask Me Anything) with experts working in infertility. The r/infertility sub describes itself as “a fantastic community that exists for shitty reasons. . . This is the place to be when it feels like everyone is easily pregnant, except you.”
While infertility is a very common problem, it doesn’t always the get attention it should. So in 1989 RESOLVE created NIAW to put infertility in the spotlight. Fertility specialists getting together informally with people struggling to get pregnant – during NIAW – on the Reddit platform seems like a perfect partnership.
For National Infertility Awareness Week® 2025 both Dr. Tendai Chiware and Dr. Jacob Khurgin hosted AMA sessions.
