    Reclaiming the Fertility Narrative: You’re Not Starting Over, You’re Starting Forward

    The New Year often comes with the phrase “New Year, New You,” but for those navigating fertility challenges, that message can feel disheartening, like you are constantly starting from scratch. In this special New Year’s Day episode, Dr. Norbert Gleicher reframes the conversation: you are not starting over, you are starting forward.  Drawing on decades of experience, Dr. Gleicher explains how every appointment, test, and treatment builds knowledge and resilience that carry into the future. He discusses why progress in fertility care is rarely linear, how individualized treatment plans matter more than cookie-cutter timelines, and how patients can embrace the New Year with both honesty and hope.  This episode is a reminder that your journey is not erased by setbacks or by the turning of the calendar. Each step brings you forward—and this year can hold the possibility of new beginnings and new family.  Brought to you by the Center for Human Reproduction (CHR) on the Upper East Side of New York City. With over 40 years of experience and a history of innovation, CHR has been at the forefront of fertility care since the beginning.   Our founder, Dr. Norbert Gleicher, reported the first successful transvaginal egg retrieval in human history, helping to shape the future of IVF as we know it today. CHR is known for tackling some of the most challenging fertility cases—especially women over 40 and those with diminished ovarian reserve—by offering highly individualized, evidence-based care when others often turn patients away.  Our team has published more than 450 peer-reviewed research papers advancing reproductive medicine, reflecting our deep commitment not only to patient care but to the science that drives better outcomes. At CHR, you're never just a number. You're part of a community focused on giving you the personalized support, science, and hope you deserve.  Website: www.thechr.com   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/chrnewyork   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/chrnewyork/   Linkedin:  https://www.linkedin.com/company/centerforhumanreproduction/   Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/CenterforHumanReproduction/   TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@chrnewyork
