I speak to the brilliant and lovely Jenny, who is the Ethnic Minorities project worker for the Fertility Network.
Jenny talks about her personal fertility experience and that of the couples she supports in her ethnic minority support groups.
Jenny kindly talks about how you can advocate for yourself with your GP and clinic when you are not feeling seen or heard.
It was a really helpful chat, and keep listening after I say thank you and bye, because we carried on chatting and I felt like it was too good and helpful to not include.
