Tyra and Chrissy Sound Off About Infertility


I stumbled upon this clip from Tyra Banks' new show 'The FABLife' and was brought to tears. 
 My respect for Tyra and Chrissy grew a lot after I saw this video. 
It's not easy to put fertility struggles (past or present) out in the open, because it also opens you up to new types of hurtful comments and scrutiny. 
When I say that [hurtful comments and scrutiny], I get a lot of push back.
"Well I know people who have IF and they have never had hurtful comments."
Good! 
I'm really glad.
But I have.
And 98% of the women with infertility that I interact with [and there are a lot. I am involved in an international online support group] have as well.
We have been told "Get over it."
"Kids are expensive anyway, you're lucky you don't have any."
"You must be doing something wrong."
"If you are sad about infertility it means you don't love God."
"I don't care if my pregnancy is hard for you, it'll teach you a lesson."
"If God wanted you to be a mom you would be."
"Fertility treatments are a sin. You're not going to do IVF are you?"
It's all ignorance.
Most of the time people don't mean to hurt you, but frankly...no one cares how you meant it.
We care what you said.
We educate ourselves on the proper etiquette when interacting with cancer patients, amputees, disabled people, and different races.
Why then, do you get a pass for one of the most common diseases of all?
Infertility is a disease, and together we can remove the shame of it.




It's amazing to see so many high profile people speak out about this disease. 
Because it is a disease. 
Bravo ladies.

I have been suffering from a deadly Herpes virus (HVS) for the past (4)years now; I had spent a lot of money going from one Hospital to another looking for way to get rid of this disease, the hospital have been my home everyday residence. Constant checks up have been my hobby not until this faithful day, I was searching
      through the internet, I saw a testimony on how Dr.Emmanuel helped someone in curing his Herpes virus using his healing
      Herbs, quickly I copied his email just to give him a test I spoke to him, he asked me to a preparation for the herbs items, of which I did exactly what he instructed me to do, he told me that he is going to provide the herbal cure to me, which he
      did, few days after i went back to the same hospital that previously confirmed me as Herpes virus positive and this time the result declared me negative to the deadly virus of Herpes virus....so I decided to share my testimony, that nothing is impossible with God, God use a man to healed me.

  5. I am here to thank a great man who cured my husband of AZOOSPERMIA (ZERO SPERM COUNT) his name is Dr. Uduehi. My husband suffered zero sperm count for a long time. He felt useless or depressed most time especially when we wants to make out because he knows there would be no results. So, one day I confide in a friend about our predicament and she gave me Dr. Uduehi’s contacts, I contacted him and he administered his medication and after my spouse took the medicine he started experiencing sperm although it was little at the beginning but it kept increasing until he got me pregnant after 13 years of marriage. You too can be cured also he treats any kind of male infertility. Reach him through: uduehiherbalcare@gmail.com phone/WhatsaPP: +2347084878384
