In this emotional and personal video, I'm sharing my story of miscarriage, which occurred at just 6 weeks into my pregnancy as a doctor with endometriosis. As someone who has experienced the challenges of infertility and the ups and downs of the ivf journey, I want to offer support and solidarity to others who may be going through similar miscarriage struggles. For those trying to conceive, it's essential to know that you're not alone, and that there are many resources available to help you navigate the often difficult road to pregnancy. From pregnancy tips and fertility advice to infertility stories and ivf process explanations, I hope to provide a sense of community and connection for those who are facing pregnancy challenges, especially during the critical first trimester. By speaking out about my 6 week miscarriage, I hope to help break down the stigma surrounding this common experience, and to encourage others to share their own stories of pregnancy, infertility, and the ttc journey. Whether you're currently pregnant, trying to conceive, or simply looking for infertility support and guidance for your friend or family member, I hope that my story will resonate with you and offer some comfort and reassurance that you are not alone.Visit website at https://medpsycmoss.com for transcripts, blog posts, and resources for medical students, health care professionals, and patientsLet’s Connect: @stephmossmdInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/stephmossmd/Twitter/X: https://twitter.com/medpsymoss TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@stephmossmd?_t=8kS9kVfKjUc&_r=1Listen to Podcast “Life as a Patient-Doctor:Youtube: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLUfheMZYKjA8xJN3_tzjvvCWGn8HKh_Rt&si=erIIirgQyAsEkBR4 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/685WDhQHXulbCmh2siIOp3Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/life-as-a-patient-doctor/id1719637283***This episode is for educational purposes only and is not intended nor implied to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis or treatment.
