Denae, Vanessa, and Lindsey sit down with Lauren, a Certified Nurse-Midwife. Among many areas, she is especially interested in infertility and fertility preservation. Before working as a midwife, she worked in reproductive endocrinology where she helped people who struggled with fertility problems.
In this episode, we talk about egg freezing, the definition, and prevalence of infertility, types of treatment, how to best provide emotional support for our loved ones during the painful time of infertility, and so much more.
As always, we have our weekly check-in, we talk about Lindsey losing her phone for a few days, Denae basically having a newborn, and Vanessa teaching an etiquette class. Enjoy!
