Battling Infertility with Hope

My husband and I weren’t ready to have children when we got married nine years ago. We decided to wait. Finally, we agreed to start trying to conceive around two years ago. Sadly, I was told that I must undergo a surgical procedure before I could even attempt to become pregnant. A year later, I was diagnosed with a treatable medical condition. This year, I’ve endured a couple more setbacks on my journey to have a baby. However, I refuse to give up. I choose to battle infertility with hope instead of despair. Thankfully, I am armed with many advances in medicine that women years ago did not have access to. When one procedure doesn’t work, my physician immediately starts formulating my next plan of action. On this blog, you will learn about the amazing strides obstetricians are taking in solving infertility problems. Never lose hope.
