    I am 22 and have had 6 miscarriages, abnormal pregnancies, ectopic pregnancies, and so on. It's more than heartbreaking each time. This video encourages me not to give up. Thank you.

    I want fertility testing but my doctors aren’t taking me seriously. They thought I was crazy at 22.

    I also had PCOS. I have never had normal equal period. But I thank God and my doctors for two children. By the way the treatment wasn't very complicated. Simple things worked out. I wish every woman has children 🌹♥️♥️. Good luck.

    So you can ask about fertility, but not about whether a couple wants children? Make it make sense..

    Why do people say this all the time like it's easy to do. IT IS NOT easy to adopt.

    It’s not easy, and the genetic link is very important to most people.

    @Ilda Veseli you are just not decent woman. A real woman wouldn't make a baby while there are a lot of orphans in the world, she would adopt a baby. What you are saying is very selfish.
