As a reproductive therapist, I’ve seen how this season of life can test communication, intimacy, and connection for couples, but also how it can create profound closeness when prioritized as an important source of support.

The journey to become pregnant can be emotionally and physically demanding, with waiting periods often being one of the most challenging aspects. Whether you're waiting for your period to arrive (or not), test results, the outcome of an IVF cycle, or the next step in your treatment plan, the uncertainty can feel overwhelming. 

Infertility can be a deeply distressing experience, affecting millions of individuals and couples worldwide. For many, the inability to conceive shatters long-held dreams and expectations of parenthood.

Infertility is a deeply personal and challenging experience, but when the diagnosis is “unexplained infertility,” the journey can feel even more frustrating and isolating. This uncertainty can intensify emotional distress, leaving people wondering how to cope and move forward.

Dealing with infertility can be a rollercoaster of emotions, especially when it seems like everyone around you is pregnant. The constant reminders of others' pregnancies and births can feel like a punch to the gut, stirring up a whirlwind of feelings — from deep sadness to jealousy and even resentment.
