In this episode of In/Fertility in the City, we’re joined by Dr. Anita Raja, a respected GP, broadcaster, and campaigner for well-being within the BAME communities.

She shares her deeply personal fertility journey, discussing her struggles with uterine fibroids, endometriosis, and multiple miscarriages and opens up about the cultural pressures she faced, the emotional toll of her experiences, and the challenges of advocating for herself as both a doctor and a patient.

This episode offers a raw and compassionate look at the complexities of infertility, the importance of self-advocacy, and the intersectionality of cultural and medical challenges.
