Why is government regulation needed in fertility clinics?

Government regulation is needed in fertility clinics because they are currently largely unregulated, creating an environment where serious errors can occur without accountability. Christina's situation at Coastal Fertility represents just one example of the concerning mishaps that can happen at fertility centers across the country. The lack of oversight is particularly problematic as there are no reporting requirements when errors are made, allowing mistakes to potentially go undocumented and unaddressed. This regulatory gap puts vulnerable patients at risk during what is already an emotionally and financially challenging process of assisted reproduction.
