EP49: Tom's story: Navigating a fertility journey as a male partner - support, resources & advocacy
Today we welcome Tom to our show! Tom speaks about the fertility journey from a male partner's perspective and how he supports his wife during her fertility journey and now continuing on to their pregnancy, as well as and how fertility specialists can do better to see and involve male partner's during the fertility journey.
As we navigate today's episode, you're going to hear us using the terms men and women while discussing partners and their roles in the fertility journey; these terms are reflective of Tom and his partner's personal journey, but of course we want to acknowledge the gender and family dynamics are beautifully diverse. Our intention is not to be exclusive or dismiss other genders, identities, pronouns, or other people's journeys. We know that fertility journeys come in many, different forms and our aim with this podcast is to offer insights and support that resonate universally.
