Navigating Infertility at work

Infertility in the workplace is a deeply personal and challenging issue, impacting both emotional well-being and professional life. Many women avoid discussing it for fear of career repercussions, while men often feel they lack the space to openly share their struggles. Addressing these concerns in the workplace is essential for creating an environment where employees feel supported, understood, and empowered to balance their fertility journey with their professional responsibilities.
