Patient Stories

We can tell you a lot about the hows and whys of IVF, but to understand how it feels, it's better to hear it from someone who's been through it. Here are some real patient stories that tell it like it really is from their own point of view.

Would you like to share your story?

If you'd like to share your IVF experiences - the highs, the lows, the funny side and the devastating parts - please let us know. Tell us about how you felt during the two week wait. Tell us the anecdote about the time your husband dropped your Lucrin needle on his foot. Tell us how the Gonal-F made you feel. We'd like to hear it all. You can send us your story to using our online form.

Please be aware that we are making other people’s experiences available in the hope that reading about another’s journey may support you in yours, but that they are for your information only. The views expressed in them are personal to the individual contributors, and are not those of Genea. Further, any advice contained in them is in no way sanctioned by Genea and should not be relied upon as each IVF journey presents its own unique circumstances. We have an obligation to protect the privacy of our patients, so we will change identifying details (particularly names) on any stories that are submitted.
