## Resource

It feels like almost everyone I know now has a friend, sister, or family member who has struggled to have a baby. The more I started asking questions, the more I realized just how much we aren't being told and how ignored our health conditions are.  In this episode, I sit down with Emma Waters to talk about what's really driving America's fertility crisis. Why are so many couples being pushed toward IVF? Why are so many women leaving doctors' offices with more questions than answers? We talk endometriosis, hormone health, embryo ethics, and the policies shaping the future of fertility in America. You might still be forming your opinion on IVF, but my hope is that this conversation encourages all of us to ask better questions and demand better care.  I'd love to hear your thoughts in the comments.
