In this episode of the Milk and Madness podcast, we are joined by a special guest, Phuong Chandler, a nurse manager at Melbourne IVF with nearly a decade of experience. Phuong educates us novices about the intricacies of In Vitro Fertilization (IVF), including what it entails, when to seek advice, and various treatment options such as Ovulation Induction (OI) and Artificial Insemination (AI).
We'll discuss the entire IVF process, from medication to egg collection, fertilization, and embryo transfer.
We also speak about (and want to highlight) the importance of seeking advice early, the impact of health and lifestyle on fertility, and the emotional and financial burdens associated with IVF. The episode aims to support and educate listeners who may be trying to conceive or considering IVF treatments.
