Today's conversation is a very difficult one. We discuss the difficulty with needing to make a decision around termination for medical reasons ro TFMR. We speak with the the recurrent loss psychologist, Nic about what this experience was like for her. She offers such a kind and supportive space for those who have experienced recurrent loss and those having to make the difficult decision.
This episode of the Infertile and 40 Podcast serves as a valuable resource for anyone navigating questions and concerns about birth control, fertility, and their long-term impact on health and family planning. It underscores the significance of dispelling myths and the power of knowledge in making informed decisions about reproductive health.
I hope this episode helps you as you navigate through this very difficult decision or as you navigate recurrent pregnancy loss.
