Joy – The Birth of IVF

If you have not seen Joy on Netflix yet, I thoroughly recommend it. It is a fascinating and heartfelt film about the pioneers of IVF, blending history, science, and incredible personal stories. Whether you are going through IVF, supporting someone on the journey, or just curious to learn more, it is a compelling watch.

When I first heard about IVF, it felt like a very clinical and scientific process. Watching Joy really opened my eyes to the courage and determination of the people who made it possible, particularly the women involved in the first trials. Their bravery helped pave the way for something that has brought hope to so many families.

What makes Joy stand out is its ability to show the personal stakes behind the science. It does not just focus on the innovation, but also on the lives, relationships, and challenges of the people who dedicated themselves to this groundbreaking work. That balance between the personal and the historical makes it an incredibly human story.

The film is beautifully acted and tells the story with plenty of heart and humanity. It is one of those films that stays with you, not just because of the emotional moments, but because it reminds you of what can be achieved with resilience and hope.

If you are looking for something inspiring and thought-provoking, I think you will love Joy.

Joy is streaming on Netflix now.
