EP1 - Finding Out My Husband Might Be Infertile

In the first episode of Unfertile & Unfiltered, we share the beginning of our infertility journey—the part no one really prepares you for.We talk about the moment we decided we wanted kids, the quiet excitement and anxiety that came with “starting to try,” and the assumption that it would all just… happen. Like so many couples, we entered this season hopeful, nervous, and completely unaware of what was coming next.This episode walks through the early days of trying to conceive, the rising unease when things didn’t feel right, and the moment I finally decided to take an at-home fertility test. What I expected was reassurance. What I got was a result that changed everything—and ultimately led us to a diagnosis of male factor infertility.We open up about the shock, the confusion, and the emotional whiplash of realizing infertility wasn’t something happening to us together, but something affecting my husband in a deeply personal way. We also talk honestly about the lack of conversations around male infertility, why it often goes undetected, and how isolating it can feel when the narrative around infertility rarely includes men.This episode is for anyone who hasJust started trying to conceiveExperienced anxiety around fertility testingReceived unexpected test resultsIf you’re at the beginning of your infertility journey—or standing in the shock of realizing it won’t look the way you thought—this episode is for you.
