Kate Brian of Fertility Network will be talking about the range of support available for people with infertility at Bourn Hall's Fertility Fair.“Finding out that the reason we couldn’t conceive was that both of my fallopian tubes were blocked was actually a relief,” says Kirsty from Norfolk.
“The ‘not knowing why’ seemed like the worst part. With a fertility diagnosis we were able to move forward with the appropriate treatment which enabled us to have a baby.”
After over a year of trying to conceive, Kirsty and Dan came to us for fertility tests. After their problem was diagnosed, they went onto have successful treatment, leading to the birth of baby Jenson in October 2020.
