The Man's Guide to Infertility - Jon and Laura Summers

I'd love to hear your thoughts on the podcast! Let me know via text :)

Jon and Laura Summers learned through experience that infertility affects all areas of life. 

Just like women, men can experience a fertility diagnosis. And just like women, that diagnosis brings it uncertainty, fear, guilt and all sorts of emotional turbulence. Many men feel negative emotions as they watch their partners suffer, both with the burden of fertility treatment and also the pain that they may feel for their missing baby.

After surviving testicular cancer, Jon and his partner Laura went through 15 IVF cycles, 2 sperm retrieval surgeries and thousands of injections. They discovered that infertility is a marathon that requires strength and resilience.

Jon’s pragmatic yet jovial approach to the challenge of infertility helps to ease a bit of the burden, especially for men.

They share stories and information for people who are experiencing infertility through videos and social media and their book, ‘The Man’s Guide to Infertility’ helps people navigate this very challenging time in their lives.

Jon and Laura Summers chat on The Simone Feiler Podcast about their journey through infertility, how they decided to write their book and how being considerate to each other's needs was paramount to surviving both journeys.
