23 y/o uk transwoman.
I just got off the phone with my fertility clinic - I was supposed to be making a decision on what to do, instead? I'm left fucking irate.
Last week, a male doctor informed me that besides my low motility, my sample was healthy and as expected from someone my age. He informed me that the low motility was not a concern and that, however, if i wanted to increase it i could spend three months weight lost, on a healthy diet and on fertility supplements (that were dupposed to be prescribed) and that doing so would increase my motility, as well as other aspects, to increase future fertility.
Today, I was informed by a female doctor, otherwise. Not only is my sample not just low in motility, critically, but in all aspects. ALL aspects. And that spending three months weight loss, on a healthy diet and on fertility supplements (that i have to source) may not increase my fertility, in fact, she told me there could be no certainty of any increase to fertility.
WHAT. THE. FUCK?!
I... I just want to crawl up into a ball and die. Until today, I was under the impression that having a biological child with someone I love was a possibility – no? Apparently, who fucking knows because the doctors sure fucking don't. Of course I was aware it may not happen, obviously, but now I'm being told is more unlikely? And that they don't know? Anything that I do or don't do might not matter?!
WHAT FUCKING CHOICE IS THAT?! HOW CAN I MAKE A DECISION WITHOUT BEING PROPERLY INFORMED.
Meanwhile, I'm 24 next week, time is ticking on my medical transition and I may not start until next year if I decide to spend the 3 months trying to improve fertility.
I'm just so fucking done with this. Why wasn't I informed properly the first time?! WHY?!
Its not fair.
