Available data indicates that at least 168 million couples worldwide experience infertility - that’s around 1 in 6 couples having difficulty conceiving.
So why do we find it so hard to talk about a problem that effects so many of us?
I’m glad you’re here.
Fertility can be daunting, I know! With so much information online, it can be difficult to recognise commercially driven, mis-information from the accurate, evidence-based kind.
I developed this space to do that for you. The Fertility Talk platform is a trusted space with the goal of educating, supporting and encouraging the sharing of insights and experiences to actively encourage ‘The Talk’ - on everything to do with fertility.
I am an advocate for patients having supported countless numbers of couples going through infertility treatments and strongly believe that whatever the journey, patients should always be well educated and emotionally supported. My hope, alongside other experts in their fields, is to share this knowledge with you to provide you with the most up to date, clear, evidence-based information.
'Knowledge is power...
My goal is to advocate for you, providing a space where important questions can be answered. I hope to spread awareness, remove the stigma associated with infertility and support you in finding the answers you need.'
A bit about me..
My passion for Nursing and the caring profession quickly led me into the field of Reproductive Medicine as a Fertility Nurse. I have over 5 years of experience working within the field of fertility and have worked in one of the leading Infertility, Gynecology, Obstetrics, Genetics and IVF Centers in the Middle East. While studying my Masters, looking at human development from embryo to birth, I became increasingly interested in the factors affecting fertility, growth and development in utero and the affects everyday lifestyle choices can have on our health and our offspring. After my studies I felt it was really important to share this information and what I had learned - and here I am. Drawing from my academic and clinical experience, I hope to build a trusted space on TheFertilityTalk.com where factual, non-biased information and support can be found.
