Our “WTFertility” series is a great opportunity for you to learn more about your reproductive health and options in a friendly and comfortable setting!

Whether your focus is elsewhere, you're trying to get pregnant, or unsure if you ever want a baby, or just somewhere in between – this workshop is for you!

A women's reproductive health, and our options, are never talked about. Many of us learned what we know from books, sitcoms or through our friends’ experiences. The problem with that is, we’re not guaranteed reliable and safe information. Having information is important because it can empower us to make decisions that align with our values and the vision we have for our lives.

So, women of Toronto, it's time for us to reclaim our power over our reproductive health, and the first step is learning about our options!

This workshop will guide you through the following topics and offers practical information you can act on right away:

• Birth control: what are your options and how to select among them

• How to get pregnant: what are the natural and assistive options

• Fertility preservation: what does egg, embryo & sperm freezing mean and why it’s important to know about.

Our goal is for you to leave feeling confident about your reproductive options and empowered to make the choices best for YOU.

Join us and get all your fertility questions answered, nothing is off limits!

Spots are limited so grab a friend (or two) and snag your spots- we can't wait to see you there!

All profits from the event will go to Nisa Homes, a charity supporting women and children, especially those who have suffered from domestic abuse.
