Welcome back to The Fertility Podcast. We’ve had a bit of a break and now we’re back sounding a little different! It’s just me - Kate. Nat is off working hard with her Fertility Matters at Work co-founders and so, I’ve taken control of the reins!

In this first episode, my guest is Paulina, Paulina, who was diagnosed with PCOS 4 years previously, then received the shocked diagnosis of a Borderline Ovarian Tumour in 2020. She talks about what it felt like when she received this diagnosis and what this means for her fertility going forward.

Paulina’s journey proves that if you feel something is up with your body that you should find out as soon as you can. Despite all the surgeries and scans, Paulina still wants to conceive and have a child. 

What we discussed: 

  • Where she was and what if felt like to receive her diagnosis
  • The process that she went through 
  • The struggle of Covid 19 and how that affected her journey
  • The difficulties that she found with communication with her Doctors
  • The after effects of the scans and surgeries
  • Process of trying to get pregnant with one ovary that has PCOS
  • Turning to IVF and then choosing to freeze her eggs privately 
  • Looking into a Sperm Bank
