The high expectations find their first reality check in the form of infertility, a very taboo thing. The social stigma, myths, wrongly preconceived notions, and ignorance makes the journey from fertility treatment to utilizing In-vitro Fertilization, or IVF option, arduously stretched and, thus, stressed. Not anymore.
