the nursing specialties page on the discover nursing website has a listing for reproductive nursing:
http://www.discovernursing.com/jnj-specialtyid_134-dsc-specialty_detail.aspx - reproductive nursing - " nurses in this field provide education and support to individuals, couples, and families regarding fertility, menopause, and other reproductive concerns. these nurses work in clinics that provide treatments, in centers that match egg donors with families, or in counseling programs that help individuals and couples who are having difficulty conceiving." the page includes a long list of links to professional organizations to check out.
You could work for an RE or for a urologist at a clinic or surgical site. I've often thought of doing that myself.
It seems like RE's don't like doing IUIs anymore (because they are cheap-comparatively). Some IUIs are being done at andrology clinics now, since the sperm needs to be washed anyway.

Hello,
My goal one day is to be a nurse in the reproductive field. Is there a speciality for this? I do not see it listed and well, searches do not come up with much. Thanks!!
