S06_E05 - An IVF Q&A with an OB-GYN...
With Special Guest: Dr. Samantha Pace, OB-GYN
Starting a family isn't always as simple as we might have in our heads - and for millions of people, in vitro fertilization (IVF) has helped bridge the gap between hoping for children and having them. But what does the process actually entail? Who's eligible for this treatment? And why does the process feel like an emotional rollercoaster of hope and heartbreak?
We couldn't have a better guest to walk us through all of this than an OB-GYN who has walked this road herself. We'll be joined by fertility specialist Dr. Samantha Pace to go over the entire process and explore how this treatment has helped millions of people successfully have a child. We'll go over the procedures, risks, outcomes and why Anne Boleyn gets an unduly bad rap. Whether you're considering IVF yourself, supporting someone who is, or are just curious about how this science is shaping how families are built today, this is a conversation you won't want to miss. Join us!
