Infertility affects nearly 1 in 8 couples, but many struggle silently because we don’t have a great way to talk about this condition. There’s still a lot of stigma and shame associated with pregnancy loss and difficulty conceiving. Nearly half of women who have experienced a miscarriage say they felt less alone when their friends shared their own stories of pregnancy loss.
In the spirit of opening up dialogue, HuffPost is launching IVFML, a new podcast miniseries about infertility featuring Anna Almendrala, a senior editor at HuffPost, and her husband Simon Ganz, who want to be those oversharing friends who make the process easier.
Anna and Simon don't know the secret to surviving infertility, but they do have their own hilarious, sad and absurd story to tell. Join them for some real talk about what it’s like to lose pregnancies, go through treatment and figure out how to pay for it all.
Whether you’re single or partnered, fertile or infertile, tune in for important life lessons about finding hope, grieving in public and, of course, gently telling loved ones that your reproductive choices are none of their business.
All five episodes are now available. Subscribe to IVFML: Apple Podcasts / Acast / RadioPublic / Google Play / Stitcher / RSS
