Signed Tuesday, the executive order aims to expand access to IVF and reduce its costs, but has not effected any immediate changes to the procedure.

U.S. President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Tuesday directing the government to expand access to in vitro fertilization and reduce the costs of the popular fertility treatment.

The Department of Health and Human Services estimates that IVF treatments cost $15,000 to $20,000 per cycle and that 85,000 babies were born with IVF in 2021.

The president says the order would help lower costs and expand access to in vitro fertilization, but advocates caution that this is just a first step.

The executive order directs policy recommendations on the affordability and availability of IVF and other fertility treatments.

Trump's IVF executive order sparks debate on reproductive rights, personhood, and access. Advocates call for comprehensive solutions balancing IVF and abortion rights.
