ABSTRACT
Fertility preservation is the process of collecting and storing oocytes, sperm, or reproductive tissue so that a person may retain their ability to have biologically related children. In instances of infertility caused by medical intervention or an underlying medical condition, this procedure is often sought by affected patient populations. U.S. Title 21 regulations have produced disparities in access, disproportionately restricting services for sexually and gender diverse subpopulations capable of producing sperm. This article examines policies contributing to these disparities, explores how these policies may translate to real-world health care delivery, and proposes policy changes that would increase equitable access to care.
