If you’re going through fertility difficulties, you’re not alone.

If you want to find out more about the causes of infertility, treatments and how to support your wellbeing, join the Wellbeing of Women for a free webinar:

💬Navigating the Fertility Journey
📅Wednesday 13 August 2025, 12:00 – 13:00
💻 Book your place here

Fertility issues affect around 1 in 6 people globally, and 1 in 7 heterosexual couples in the UK. Despite how common fertility issues are, navigating the ups and downs of a fertility journey can be isolating, challenging and full of uncertainty.

The webinar will look at why you may be struggling to have a baby, what your options are, and how to manage the impact of infertility and treatment.

In this webinar, Professor Dame Lesley Regan will speak to fertility expert Dr Nicola Tempest, and fertility advocate Becky Kearns, who will share her experience of infertility and fertility treatments.

The panellists will discuss topics such as:

Causes of fertility issues
Your options for treatment
How to manage the impact of treatment
Supporting your mental wellbeing

Have a question for one of our speakers? Email education@wellbeingofwomen.org.uk before the event and they’ll do their best to answer your questions during the session. You can also ask questions during the webinar.

Please note that while they’ll do their best to answer questions, the panel won't be able to give personal medical advice or address individual cases during the webinar.

Don’t miss this chance to sign up and get key expert insight into all things fertility.
