On The Infertility Message Boards: Work and Fertility Treatments, Embryo Transfers, and Self-Injections

You should not go through infertility alone, and you don’t need to. We have a group of excellent women, all waiting to meet you, on our infertility message boards. Whether you just want to browse and read other’s posts, or you’re ready to jump in and say hello, we’d love to have you.

Just some of the posts on the infertility message boards this week:

• Work and Fertility Treatments

  Fertility treatments sometimes require time off work, either for ultrasounds, blood work, or medication administration. Two of our forum members are talking about making your work schedule and your treatment plans work together, and they are looking for tips. Come read their wisdom, and share your own ideas.

• Feeling Tired After Embryo Transfer

  A new member, colleencrymble, is feeling tired after an IVF embryo transfer (when they take the embryo and place it inside the uterus.) She wants to know if anyone else has had the same experience. Share your stories, and offer her some support.

• Giving Yourself Shots

  Some fertility treatments require you to give yourself injections. Giving the medication may not be so difficult, but emotionally, it’s stressful! How can you get over the fear of sticking a needle into yourself? Come share your own fears, along with any tips and stories if you have them.

Feel free to drop by on any of these threads, whether you have personal experience or not. Just letting a member know you’re listening can help.

While you’re there, start a post of your own. Introduce yourself, ask a question, or share a story, or vent. Whatever it is that’s on your mind, chances are someone else is feeling and thinking the same thing.
