Raise your hand if your fertility journey has not gone exactly as planned. I know there are hands going up everywhere right now – in cars, in kitchens, on morning walks, in offices. Maybe you’ve been trying for months – or years – with no success. Maybe you got pregnant easily before, and now you’re facing loss after loss. Or maybe you’re just starting out, and nothing is working the way you thought it would.
Here’s what’s wild – about one in six couples struggles with fertility. That’s way more common than most people think. But you know what? That number doesn’t tell the whole story. It doesn’t show the nights you’ve cried yourself to sleep, or how hard it is to scroll through social media seeing pregnancy announcement after pregnancy announcement.
Let me tell you something I’ve learned the hard way – your body doesn’t care if you’ve had easy pregnancies before. It doesn’t care about your perfect timing or your vision board or your five-year plan. Some of us struggle for years to see that first positive test. Others, like me, get blindsided by loss after things have been easy. Some of us dive deep into fertility treatments, while others keep hearing those frustrating words: “unexplained infertility.”
But here’s the truth – and I want you to really hear this – there’s no competition in this pain. Whether you’ve been trying for five years or you’ve had multiple losses in one year, whether you’re just starting this journey or feeling like you’re losing hope – your story matters. Your pain is real. And that tiny spark of hope you’re holding onto? Keep holding on.
Today our guest is Dr. Gabriela Rosa, a world-renowned fertility specialist who’s helped thousands of couples overcome what seemed like impossible odds to create their families. With over two decades of experience, she brings together cutting-edge reproductive science with a deep understanding of how our mental and emotional state impacts our fertility.
