In Kansas, Minnesota, Pennsylvania and South Carolina, where we read the published scope rules for these practitioners, infertility is not among the permitted categories of practice as we read them. 9 practitioners we analyzed advertise it anyway. Infertility is investigated and treated by reproductive endocrinologists, gynaecologists and urologists. It is not a musculoskeletal condition. Classifications reflect our review, not an adjudicated finding.
