INSIGHT

Modern Fertility Decline Crisis

Female fertility has declined drastically; young women today have lower fertility than their grandmothers did at 35.

ADVICE

Avoid adopting the identity of being infertile; it can negatively influence your fertility journey.
Seek support that encourages the identity you want to achieve, not the identity that traps you.
