Navigating your way through fertility information
As a former fertility patient and a staff member at the charity Fertility Network UK, I know how important access to good support and accurate information is for those going through fertility tests and treatments. When you are trying to conceive, you will do anything to make a difference to your chances of having a baby, and this can sometimes leave you vulnerable to misleading claims and misinformation.

Australia Becomes The First Country To Lift Coronavirus Ban On IVF Treatment
Australia is set to become the first country to “gradually” restart IVF treatment after Prime Minister Scott Morrison confirmed that COVID-19 restrictions on IVF treatment and other elective surgery would begin to ease this week. With the spread of Coronavirus slowing, Australia is trying to slowly end their lockdown and restart the economy. Elective surgeries including IVF were suspended in March in a bid to free up more beds for Coronavirus patients with only emergency operations going ahead.
Breaking the taboo of miscarriage and its mental health impacts
There are an estimated 250,000 miscarriages in the UK every year, but it is not always clear why we find it so difficult to talk about something that happens so often. Miscarriage can be a lonely and isolating experience, and it is often hard to get answers to questions about possible causes. Doctors generally only undertake investigations after a third pregnancy loss and breaking the taboo of miscarriage is a challenge when people rarely get the support they feel they need.

Protecting patients’ data in a digital NHS
If you’re old enough to remember the fax machine, you may not have seen one for many years, unless you happen to work in the NHS. Last year, the Royal College of Surgeons revealed that more than 8,000 fax machines were owned by NHS trusts, and described it as “ludicrous” that so many trusts were still using the “archaic” machines for communications and transmitting patient data.
IVF treatment needs to be accessible to all in the UK
Discovering you need medical help to get pregnant can be a devastating blow, but the postcode lottery for NHS-funded IVF treatment is adding to the stress and anxiety of many couples. At present, access to IVF in the UK doesn’t depend on your diagnosis or what would be best for you; it is entirely down to where you live.
Fertility education in schools can spare couples future heartache
There has never been more information about fertility available, and yet it has never been harder to get clear, evidence-based answers to questions on the subject. Newly released data from a poll carried out for the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists found widespread confusion among women about their fertility.
Getting reliable fertility advice free of commercial interest
Getting reliable fertility advice free of commercial interest 18 March 2019 By Kate Brian Kate Brian is Women's Voices Lead at the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists Appeared in BioNews 991 It has never been easier to find information about fertility, with a mass of material online about anything you might want to investigate. There are hundreds of thousands of words covering every condition, test and treatment. And yet it has never been harder to get clear answers to questions.
Induced endometrial trauma (endometrial scratch) in the mid-luteal menstrual cycle phase preceding first cycle IVF/ICSI versus usual IVF/ICSI therapy: study protocol for a randomised controlled trial
The study was reviewed by couples waiting to commence IVF treatment and then by the members of The Jessop Wing Reproductive Health Public Advisory Panel, (patient and public involvement (PPI)) at the Jessop Wing, Sheffield. All were asked to provide input into the lay summary, recruitment strategy, visit schedule and benefits of the proposed study to the patient and the National Health Service (NHS).
Fertility tourism: UK couples go abroad for IVF
The UK may have been the birthplace of in vitro fertilisation (IVF), but cuts to NHS fertility services have led some people to consider travelling across the globe for fertility treatment. The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence recommends three cycles of IVF for those who are eligible, but whether you get anything approaching this depends entirely on where you live.

Lois Duncan's 'I Know What You Did Last Summer' Is the Perfect Book to Revisit Right Before Halloween
When we talk about childhood horror and suspense books, we often are quick to talk about R.L. Stine and Christopher Pike. But one woman stands out for many of us: Lois Duncan. The author published fewer books than Stine, but she's had a lasting impact with her contributions to the genre. Duncan is an inspiration to all young women writers out there. She sold her first story to a magazine when she was only 13 years old. In high school, she continued writing as a regular contributor to Seventeen.
How fertility patients can make informed decisions on treatment | OUPblog
Media coverage of health news can seem to consist of a steady diet of research-based stories, but making sense of what may be relevant or important and what is not can be a tall order for most patients.
