The emotional challenges often experienced by those facing infertility can feel isolating. However, a supportive partner, family member or friend can play a vital role in helping to navigate the journey with love and comfort. Greg Kennedy, District Sales Manager, Reproductive Medicine, shared his personal story in an interview with Authority Magazine, where he discussed navigating the emotional ups and downs of #IVF along with his wife Danyelle, which ultimately led to the birth of their son, Wyatt. His perspective provides valuable advice about the importance of a supportive anchor during a journey to parenthood. Read Greg’s story here: https://bit.ly/49L5pDz. #FerringTeamSpotlight

The holidays are here, and for aspiring parents, this time of the year can be particularly challenging.

This is why the compassionate support of healthcare professionals is critically important. Along with their care, resources such as Fertility Outreach, which offers access to fertility coaching via text at no cost – can provide additional comfort and guidance to manage this difficult time.  Need a resource to share with your patients about navigating for the holiday season?

Hello! I’m Melissa Gokhman, RN, BSN, a Fertility Outreach Coach, here with another #CoachsCorner. As fertility coaches, we work with patients of various backgrounds and across diverse communities. It’s important to provide culturally sensitive care so we can create a welcoming and supportive environment for everyone. That's why I’m honored to offer my coaching services in both English and Spanish. Did you know that Hispanic women are less likely to seek fertility care than non-Hispanic White women? And even after a fertility evaluation, Hispanic women are less likely to receive treatment for their infertility largely due to geographic, cultural, and societal factors. We can work together to better support Hispanic individuals and couples seeking fertility treatment! Swipe through to find out! For more tips and resources, visit https://bit.ly/4fe8g9y.

Did you know that Black women are twice as likely to experience infertility? Yet, the painful reality is that they are less likely to pursue treatment. Often held back by emotional or systemic hurdles, Black women are also up to six times more likely to struggle with finding a physician they feel comfortable with. Created by Morehouse School of Medicine with support from Ferring Pharmaceuticals, the FertilityEquity™ e-Learning modules educate healthcare professionals and fertility clinic staff about the importance of equitable, compassionate fertility care, particularly for Black women.
