“Put your relationship first. It’s easy to get caught up and get overwhelmed with the process—the amount of tests you have to go through, finding doctors— and it can easily take over your life. I think it’s important to connect with your spouse, remember why you want to create a family with them, and really invest in that relationship, otherwise you can easily get carried away. Empower yourselves with knowledge and make sure that your comfortable with your treatments and your medical professionals. Speak up, ask, and if they’re not the right medical professional for you to move on and find someone who will give you time, be there for you and help you through this journey, taking back control where you can.” -Lana
