Expectations not matching the reality of outcomes?

Let’s face it, if you live in a human body, you will experience this in the context of your health at some point in time.

During the fertility treatment process and IVF, this is a theme that we often face over and over and over again.

In this episode, I talk about what to do and what not to do when this happens.

By the end of this episode, you will have a few ideas to help you find some relief when you’re inevitably faced with that theme of “Oh yeah… Sometimes human bodies do weird things and don’t respond in the way we want them to”.

Are you new to fertility treatments and IVF? Or maybe this isn’t your first rodeo but you’re curious about the title of this podcast? This is the episode for you!

In my 12+ years of clinical experience, helping thousands of people during their IVF experience, I have found that I have the same conversations over and over again with my patients and clients.

I almost wish that there was a manual for how to do IVF - but we all know that wouldn't work because everyone is different!

This episode outlines the top 5 things I think every human should know before they embark on their fertility treatment process (particularly IVF)

Today is the first instalment of a new series called Fertility Clinic Confidence Episodes. During this series of quick and easily digestible episodes, we will be sharing bits of knowledge and questions to ask to help you feel more confident, while navigating your fertility treatment process.

This episode is all about the most important questions to ask your care provider when you are offered a new fertility treatment protocol. Today we will cover why you need to know:


What is the reason for recommending this next step?
What are the risks and benefits of this next level of treatment?
What are the risks and benefits of sticking with my current treatment protocol for now?
What will the entire cost be for this next level of intervention?
How will I know if this treatment protocol is working?
How long do you suggest I try this intervention before we know it is time to move on?
Are there any alternatives to this suggestion?
