Never Going Back to Fertility Treatment
Summary: Going through fertility treatments is an emotional rollercoaster. At first, you are filled with hope. But after many failed tries, that hope can feel risky and exhausting. The author compares this painful cycle to the Fleetwood Mac song "Never Going Back Again."
Eventually, you might stop and ask yourself, "What is this costing me?" Deciding to stop treatment is not giving up or failing. It is actually a brave choice to put your own mental and physical health first. It is the moment you realize that your well-being matters, too.
