Tonight, we remember. 🕯️

October 15 is Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day. At 7 p.m., families around the world are invited to light a candle as part of the Wave of Light, honoring babies lost through miscarriage, stillbirth, and infant loss.

If you choose to participate, you can share your candle publicly or light it quietly at home. There is no right or wrong way to remember someone you love.

To every family lighting a candle tonight, CRM is thinking of you.

AMH. IUI. IVF. FET.

When you first enter the world of fertility care, it can sometimes feel like you've also enrolled in a crash course in a whole new language.

Understanding common fertility terms can help you feel more informed when talking with your care team and making treatment decisions.

If you encounter a term you don't understand, ask. No question is silly when it comes to understanding your own care.

The financial side of fertility treatment can bring its own set of questions.

What will insurance cover? What costs should you anticipate? Are financing options available? What should you ask before treatment begins?

Getting answers early can help you understand your options and plan for what's ahead. CRM provides information about treatment costs, insurance, and financing resources to help patients navigate this part of the process.

There's no perfect time to ask questions.

You don't need to know all the medical terms.

You don't need to have researched every treatment.

You don't need to wait until you're "sure" something is wrong.

Some of the best conversations begin with two simple words:

"I have questions."

Whether you've been trying to conceive for months, have concerns about your cycle, or simply aren't sure if it's time to see a specialist, we're here to listen without judgment and help you understand your options.

Because asking questions isn't a sign of weakness. It's often the first step toward finding answers.

10/01/2026

October is Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month, a time to recognize the pregnancies and babies whose lives, however brief, have left a lasting impact.

For those who have experienced miscarriage, stillbirth, infant loss, or another form of pregnancy loss, grief doesn't follow a timeline. Some people want to talk about their experience, while others prefer to remember privately. Both are valid.

This month, we honor the babies who are deeply loved and the families who carry them in their hearts.

Experience matters. Compassion matters just as much.

For decades, Dr. Mark Damario has helped individuals and couples navigate some of life's biggest questions with expertise, honesty, and compassion.

He understands that every fertility journey is different, which is why he believes every patient deserves a personalized treatment plan built around their goals, medical history, and hopes for the future.

At CRM, our physicians take the time to listen, educate, and partner with you every step of the way because building a family is never just about treatment. It's about trust.

When people think about infertility, they often assume it's a women's health issue. The reality is much different.

Male factor infertility contributes to approximately 40 to 50% of infertility cases, which is why a fertility evaluation often includes testing for both partners.

Fertility isn't about assigning blame. It's about gathering information.

By evaluating both partners early in the process, we can better understand what's contributing to infertility and recommend the most appropriate treatment plan. Sometimes the answers are simpler than patients expect, and sometimes they require a different approach, but every journey begins with understanding the full picture.

No one should carry this burden alone. Building a family is a shared journey, and we're here to support both partners every step of the way.

You may have noticed us using a new term this month: PMOS.

Earlier this year, the American Society for Reproductive Medicine updated the name of the condition historically known as PCOS to Polycystic Ovarian Morphology Syndrome (PMOS).

While the name has changed, the condition itself has not. Patients will likely continue hearing both terms for some time as the medical community transitions to the updated terminology.

Our goal is to make sure you feel informed, supported, and confident in understanding your reproductive health. If you have questions about PMOS or how it may affect your fertility, we're here to help.

You don't have to wait until you've tried everything on your own before scheduling a fertility evaluation.

Many people worry they'll be told they need IVF right away, but that's simply not the case.

A fertility evaluation is designed to provide answers. For some patients, treatment may involve simple lifestyle recommendations or medication. Others may benefit from IUI, IVF, or another personalized approach.

The first appointment isn't about pressure. It's about understanding your options and creating a plan that's right for you.

One of the biggest questions we hear is, "How much will IVF cost?"

It's an important question, and one that deserves a thoughtful conversation.

The cost of fertility treatment can vary depending on your individual treatment plan and insurance coverage. That's why our team works with each patient to help them understand their options before treatment begins.

CRM participates with many major insurance carriers for covered services, and financing options are also available for eligible patients. Our goal is to help you make informed decisions, with no surprises along the way.

Family building is an investment in your future, and understanding the financial side of treatment is an important part of the journey. If you have questions about insurance coverage, payment options, or financing, we're here to help guide you through the process.
