American Infertility Association About this site: Based in New York City, the American Infertility Association was founded in 1999 by Executive Director Pamela Madsen. Today the group represents doctors, nurses, therapists, and patients working to increase public awareness about infertility. The group's Web site was primarily intended for patients grappling with the medical and emotional aspects of infertility. The group also advocates insurance coverage for infertility treatment. (http://www.americaninfertility.org)   Pluses: Patients going through infertility treatments will appreciate the down-to-earth descriptions of reproductive medicine. In the stories about the emotional aspects of infertility, the language is sensitive and caring.   Minuses: There are only a few pages of stories on fertility and reproductive medicine. Some links, such as the page of therapists, are broken.   Best feature: Besides stories on the basics of infertility care, this site offers articles about when to consider adoption. Message boards cover topics including women over 40, donor embryos, and male infertility.
