Today we’re talking about the complex decision making process when it comes to the IVF decision. We cover the barriers to access, how age does need to play a role, as well as your own personal decisions. I walk you through the conversation and questions to ask yourself and your partner the same way I do with our FCM clients who are in the same space as you.
