The Fertility Treatment and Contraceptive Protection Act c odifies that nothing in Tennessee law prohibits or prevents individuals from obtaining IVF HOUSTON , April 28, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Inception Fertility , North America's largest provider of fertility services, commends Tennessee Governor Bill Lee for signing into law HB 0533, the Fertility Treatment and Contraceptive Protection Act, which codifies the right to in vitro fertilization services and contraceptives in the state. "Inception Fertility expresses its gratitude to Governor Lee for signing the Fertility Treatment and Contraceptive Protection Act and for ensuring IVF protections for those who need fertility care," says TJ Farnsworth, Founder and CEO of Inception Fertility. "Infertility affects one in six couples in the U.
S., and this measure ensures that Tennesseans who require fertility treatments have the essential right to build the families they deserve." HB 0533 comes after the Alabama Supreme Court ruling in 2024 that assigned personhood to embryos, which jeopardized fertility care for hundreds of patients in the state.
Key provisions of HB 0533 state that individuals in Tennessee are not prohibited from obtaining IVF. Inception Fertility is the parent company of The Prelude Network (Prelude), North America's fastest-growing network of fertility clinics. Tennessee Fertility Institute , part of Prelude, is Tennessee's premier fertility provider.
Dr. Christopher Montville , Medical Director at Tennessee Fertility Institute, also expressed his gratitude to the state legislature and Governor Lee for strengthening IVF protections. "HB 0533 marks a significant victory for IVF protections for Tennessee residents, and we are grateful to the Governor and Tennessee General Assembly for the passage of this bill.
