Today is World Fertility Day … a global awareness day that myself and Sara Marshall-Page set up - with the World’s First Born through IVF, Louise Joy Brown, to raise much needed awareness.
I went through 10 years trying to have my beautiful girls - with 5 miscarriages, 3 misdiagnoses and it took until the 9th year to find an incredible consultant who actually carried out tests - and found out I had various issues (endometriosis - went in diagnosed for 20+ years!, blocked tube, thyroid issue, polyps) with those sorted out, I went on to have my miracle girls! I was so lucky to have met him! But it shouldn’t be like that!
Year on year it has grown exponentially with the awareness day raising much needed support and education around fertility for couples and individuals
struggling to have the family they dream of.
Did you know that infertility affects millions of people worldwide, regardless of gender or background?
By shedding light on this topic, we can help break the stigma and create a more understanding society. It's crucial to recognize that fertility is a shared responsibility, and it's essential for everyone to have access to reliable information and support.
Let's make a difference today and every day. Join us in raising awareness about World Fertility Day by using the hashtags and sharing this post to help spread the message. Together we can break taboos and stigma!
