The 11 companies with the best fertility benefits

For people looking to start a family, being able to conceive can be a challenge for one reason or another.

To help with that, families often turn to fertility treatments, including in-vitro fertilization, in which an embryo is made outside the body and then transferred into the woman.

Fertility treatment can be incredibly expensive. The cost of one cycle of in-vitro fertilization is on average $23,474 in the US - and it often takes more than one cycle to work.

But employers can offer IVF as a benefit. Whether they choose to do so, and what that looks like, varies company by company and often isn't easy to find when job-hunting.

To help employees get a sense of what they might expect, Fertility IQ, a website that provides information on fertility treatments and evaluates doctors, pulled together a report on the IVF benefits that companies in the US offer and ranked them based on how accessible and comprehensive they were.
