Tennessee protects fertility and birth control
Beginning July 1, 2025, Tennessee protects your right to fertility treatment and contraception, even when other state laws conflict. State-authorized health care providers also have a protected right to perform fertility treatment. Fertility care includes in vitro fertilization, egg and embryo storage, insemination, embryo genetic testing, fertility medicines, and donation services. Contraception includes emergency contraception, fertility awareness methods, and sterilization. Contraceptive products and procedures must be legally marketed under federal law as of July 1, 2025. The law does not guarantee treatment, contraception, insurance coverage, funding, or reimbursement.
