    The Broken Brown Egg

    **Our Season 2 Finale Episode ** According to the CDC, 8% of Black women between 25-44 seek infertility treatment, compared to 15% of White women. Obviously this is a multi-layered, systemic issue: we have a complicated healthcare system, s****y and inequitable insurance policies which result in high costs to seek fertility treatments, medical racism when it comes to the ways medications are tested and the way providers interact with patients, and there is a lot of community bias about Black people being hyper-fertile (which is obviously not true, and super damaging). We’re talking to Regina Townsend, founder of The Broken Brown Egg about her fertility journey and why she created The Broken Brown Egg.  We also asked Regina: What were some of the biggest challenges you experienced during your fertility journey?What do you wish Black fertility warriors knew? What do you wish White fertility warriors knew?What inspired you to create The Broken Brown Egg?

    PCOS Problems

    Despite its high prevalence, PCOS (Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome) is a disorder that is shrouded in mystery. It is often misdiagnosed and unrecognized due the fact that its signs and symptoms can vary widely from one individual to the next and can fluctuate throughout a person’s lifetime.

    Male Factor from the Gal's Perspective

    Of all infertility cases, approximately 40–50% is due to “male factor” infertility. And while this diagnosis can be devastating for men, it can be equally challenging for women who are trying to support their partners and also grow their families. On this episode, TJ Peyten shares her story through infertility, a male factor diagnosis, questions about her faith and ultimately a family grown by adoption.

    What Your Fertility Nurse is Really Thinking

    Fertility nurses play an integral role in both our reproductive treatments and also our experiences at clinics. They’re the ones who do our ultrasounds, explain our medication protocols and often are the ones calling us with our beta results post IUI or IVF. In this episode we’re talking to fertility nurse Dori Gelfman about why she got into healthcare, what makes fertility patients special and what she’s reallyyyy thinking when her patients break down and cry (or accidentally wear a jumpsuit to an ultrasound appointment). You can learn more about Dori and her new job working as Community Manager at Fruitful Fertility here: https://www.fruitfulfertility.org/blog/2077/meet-dori-gelfman/
