As a fertility doctor, I help my patients create the family they want, or preserve their fertility for whatever the future may hold.

Part of why I love what I do is that I get to understand the whole person that I treat. Not just their body, but their emotional well-being too. We can't look at humans with tunnel vision. Nor can we look at fertility that way either. The act of going through fertility treatment is as emotional as it is physical. If you're going through it this is something you already know. You may be shaking your head and thinking, "duh—yes, Dr. Aimee, I know this. I live this."

If that's the case then the next 10 things you read may seem like common sense, but it's worth me repeating them. When you are a fertility patient you need to take care of yourself. Sometimes you need some reminders on what that looks like.
