Sammiejam - sounds to me like you are right - this triggers the DDA. I think that someone would be hard pressed to argue that getting pregnant is not a "normal" activity for a woman...maybe not every day of their life but I think it does fit into normal.

I couldn't agree with you more about how objectionable this is. Unfortunately, although one can pursue arguing about this, I think that most of us will also go ahead and order the check so as to not delay treatment. Not to say we can't argue at the same time, but I don't think the option of taking a moral stance while arguing with the powers that be is a real option...at least not for an old lady like me! A rock and a hard place I guess.
