Why we're running this case study
- It's been nearly 10 years since HHV-6A was linked to infertility, yet most women still can't access testing.
- We believe everyone that is trying to build their families should have access to testing and treatment for HHV-6A.
- This case study may help inform the public of the devastating affects HHV-6A can have on couple's chances to conceive - and maybe make it easier to build their families.
Prior studies have reported HHV‑6A in endometrial cells in 43% of women with unexplained infertility vs 0% of fertile controls.
Studies in repeated implantation failure cohorts have reported substantial HHV‑6 positivity (example: 51% in a 2020 abstract).
Research also suggests uterine infection may not show up in blood, making uterine-focused testing important.
Why study participation costs $200
We'd make it free if we could. We're a small, self-funded team—this price helps cover a portion of lab + operations (we're still losing money on each participant).
The goal is to publish data that moves HHV‑6A screening toward mainstream awareness and help millions of couples conceive and build their families.
