Every year, June marks Infertility Awareness Month, a crucial time dedicated to highlighting the challenges and emotional toll faced by millions of individuals and couples struggling to conceive. This month aims to educate the public, break down stigmas, and offer support to those affected by infertility.
Infertility is a condition that affects approximately 10-15% of couples globally.
Defined as the inability to conceive after one year of unprotected intercourse, infertility can stem from issues with either the male or female partner, or both.
Common causes include hormonal imbalances, structural problems, and genetic factors.
Despite its prevalence, infertility often remains shrouded in silence and stigma. Many individuals feel isolated and reluctant to discuss their struggles due to societal pressures and misconceptions.
Infertility Awareness Month seeks to change this by encouraging open conversations and providing accurate information about the condition.
It is important to note that if you or someone you know is struggling with infertility that you are NOT alone!
Dr. Pagán personally understands and knows the frustration, emotions, and loneliness that comes with infertility and we are here
to help!
Dr. Pagán is trained in many protocols to help you better understand your body, communicate with others, and help you achieve your health goals through supplementation, coaching, acupuncture, and chiropractic care.
As awareness grows, so too does the potential for healthier, happier families and communities. Let’s build healthy communities together!
