The FertiStrong mobile app is similar to FertiCalm, which is designed for women with infertility. FertiCalm (www.FertiCalm.com) can be downloaded for free anywhere in the US, for both Apple and Android phones. Each app contains twelve main categories and each main category contains up to five tailored situations. For each situation, there are six options.
