Hello superhumans! My Fertility Podcast is hosted by Dr. Meivys Garcia and Dr. Marta Wais, REIs at Markham Fertility Centre. We explore the many facets of conception, pregnancy, and reproductive health. We're not just talking about the medical side of things, but also the emotional, psychological, and even the societal aspects that come with the journey to parenthood. Infertility is hard enough. Our goal is to provide education along with a good dose of encouragement and support. Whether you're just starting to think about having a baby, actively trying or facing challenges along the way, My Fertility Podcast will be your go to resource for honest conversations and a supportive community. Let's demystify the world of fertility together.
