Illume Fertility's RMA of Connecticut entity operates at 115 Technology Drive, Suite C200, Trumbull, CT 06611 — bringing the clinical and research infrastructure of the Reproductive Medicine Associates (RMA) network to Connecticut's Fairfield and New Haven County patient population. RMA of Connecticut joined the Illume Fertility brand alongside the Connecticut Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility (CTREI) practice, with both entities serving patients at the Trumbull location. The clinic holds a 4.6-star rating from 72 reviews. Patients exploring options across the state can browse the Connecticut fertility clinic directory.
Physicians and Clinical Team
RMA of Connecticut's physician team operates within the broader RMA network — one of the largest and most research-active reproductive medicine groups in the United States. RMA's network connection gives Connecticut patients access to clinical protocol development shaped by one of the highest-volume fertility research programs in the country, including advances in PGT, minimal stimulation IVF, and endometrial receptivity assessment.
Under the Illume Fertility umbrella, the RMA of Connecticut clinical team works alongside CTREI physicians at the same Trumbull address, with shared nursing, embryology, and support staff. This co-location creates a breadth of physician expertise and cycle volume that benefits patients whose cases require consultation across physician experience and protocol perspectives.

Laboratory and Success Rates
The Illume Fertility laboratory at Trumbull serves both the CTREI and RMA of Connecticut entities. The lab operates under quality protocols informed by RMA's research network, which has contributed to peer-reviewed advances in embryo culture, vitrification, and genetic testing methodology. ICSI, blastocyst culture, vitrification, and PGT biopsy coordination are all performed on-site. Patients should review the most current cycle-level data published by the CDC's ART Surveillance program and the SART Clinic Summary Report.
Patient Experience
RMA of Connecticut's presence within the Illume Fertility brand gives Connecticut patients access to the clinical culture of a network that has trained many of the country's leading reproductive endocrinologists. Patients who specifically value the RMA network's research-driven approach — its emphasis on evidence-based protocol updates and willingness to use emerging techniques like ERA testing and preceptoral sperm selection — will find that the Trumbull location delivers that philosophy within a locally accessible setting.
The co-location with CTREI at 115 Technology Drive means that patients experience the combined clinical depth of two established practices under one roof. The Illume brand's unified patient experience — consistent front desk, nursing team, embryology, and financial counseling — ensures patients are not navigating two separate administrative systems despite the two underlying entities.
The 4.6-star rating reflects broad patient satisfaction across both the legacy RMA of Connecticut patient base and those new to the Illume system. Trumbull's position along the I-95 and Route 8 corridors makes it accessible from Bridgeport, Shelton, Derby, Ansonia, and communities throughout Fairfield County.
Considering At-Home Insemination?
Not every fertility journey begins in a clinic. At-home intracervical insemination (ICI) is a lower-cost, private option that suits patients with no known fertility diagnosis — including single parents by choice, same-sex couples, and people who want to try a few cycles before committing to clinical treatment.
At-home insemination kits like those from MakeAMom come with step-by-step instructions designed for donor or partner sperm. Kits are a one-time purchase that can be reused until conception succeeds, require no clinic visit, and arrive in plain, discreet packaging. Many patients use them as a first step while working toward a fertility consultation — or alongside ovulation tracking while they wait for an appointment slot.
If you have a known fertility diagnosis, have been trying for 12 months without success (six months if you're over 35), or your physician has already recommended IUI or IVF, a board-certified reproductive endocrinologist is the right next step.
Insurance and Financing
Connecticut has a fertility insurance mandate requiring qualifying health plans to cover infertility diagnosis and treatment, including IVF. This mandate is one of the more comprehensive in the Northeast and meaningfully reduces out-of-pocket fertility costs for Connecticut-insured patients. Illume Fertility's financial counselors are experienced in verifying plan compliance with the mandate, communicating specific coverage levels, and identifying financing options for any remaining patient responsibility.
