#24 - Adult with XXY - Gareth Landy (Ireland)

Gareth Landy is our first person on the podcast from Ireland. Gareth was diagnosed with Klinefelter syndrome while trying to start a family with his wife who also has multiple sclerosis. He goes in-depth about how he received the gut-wrenching news from the doctor and going through the long and expensive process of sperm extraction via Micro-TESE. After hitting a dead-end, Gareth remained positive. With the help of a sperm donor, Gareth and his wife went thru 3 rounds of IVF before falling pregnant with twins. He is proud to be Living With XXY and would do it all over again if he had to. He has biked the entire length of Ireland to raise money for kids with cancer and has ran 3 full marathons. https://livingwithxxy.org/
