EP 162: Psychological wellbeing and fertility

Description:

My guest Rusell Davies talks about the eight-year struggle he and his wife had with infertility and how nobody ever tested him! Once they reached a point where his wife got her cycle sorted and he was tested the results were so poor the consultant asked him whether he had been exposed to high levels of radiation!

Russell talked about how he embarked on a four-month journey to improve his result, using acupuncture, making lifestyle changes, monitoring his alcohol intake and wearing baggy pants.. yet the next test showed an even worse result and the pair were preparing themselves for ICSI (Intracytoplasmic sperm injection)

He closed down emotionally, not wanting to burden his wife and so our chat was to highlight the importance of lifting a lid on our emotions, especially men who are all to often left to feel they need to 'be a man' in these situations and don't talk. 

 

Find out about how you can try to open up and find a place of peace without giving up on what you are wanting to achieve. We talked about accepting where you are today and how that does not mean you don’t want it to be different tomorrow.
