If you have a personal issue to discuss with a member, please take it off the boards and discuss it via PM.
No profanity: Vulgarities, obscenities, name-calling, character assassinations or mockery are not allowed on any of the FertilityCommunity.com's community of websites. While there are appropriate topics of a mature nature, the vocabulary used needs to remain family friendly.
Exchanging Medications/Selling Medications is Illegal!:While the administrators and moderators of FertilityCommunity.com are sympathetic to the expenses involved in infertility treatments, we do not allow the sale or exchange of presrcription medications on our forums, this includes Private Messages and Chat Rooms. The exchange or sell of prescription medications via our site is taken very seriously and anyone caught doing so will be banned without warning!
No Solicitation or Marketing!: Advertising or solicitation of a product or service is not allowed anywhere on FertilityCommunity.com's community of websites, whether you own or have a vested interest in the product/service or not. Additionally, posting website URL’s or addresses that link directly to fee based products or services is not allowed. If you would like more information on how you can advertise with FertilityCommunity.com’s community of websites, please send an email to admin@fertilityforums.com
No Fundraising!: The cost involved in infertility can vary from member to member. While some of our members may have insurance coverage to help assist with the cost of ART, many of our members do not. It is important to remember that we are all here for the same purpose, support through our infertility journey. It is highly inappropriate for anyone to ‘fundraise’ for their infertility treatment via this forum. This isn’t the kind of support venue we hope to have here at FertilityCommunity.com and we will delete all such messages without warning.
