  • #23. Guest Ep: Dealing With Secondary Infertility, An Oophorectomy And IVF
    2022/03/25

    We welcome Kat from West Sussex, who chats to us about her journey of secondary infertility. 

    Kat experienced an ovarian cancer scare at 27 years old and had a rugby-ball-sized cyst removed that also led to the removal of her right ovary. 

    She went on to have her first son naturally, but after finding a second cyst, it made trying for a second child almost impossible.

    It was then Kat and her husband decided to go down the IVF route to try for their second baby... Find out how they got on in this episode.

  • #21. Expert Ep: Male Infertility And Mental Health
    2022/02/15
    We're joined by expert guest psychotherapist, Noel McDermott. Noel has over 25 years of experience in health, social care, and education and we welcome him to the show to chat about male infertility specifically, and the impact that can have on mental health.    We quiz Noel on why infertility is seemingly such a 'taboo' topic especially among men, and how the psychological stress of infertility differs between men and women. Noel talks candidly about the impact stress and infertility can have on men in particular, in the bedroom, together with some   sage advice on how we can support our partners and get our relationships back on track. Noel certainly has some interesting things to say about infertility and parenting in general - what do you think?!
