With Big Miracles back on TV for 2025, we speak with one of the Doctors featured in the series, Dr Kokum Jayasinghe.
Dr Kokum combines extensive medical expertise in fertility and IVF with deep personal understanding from her own fertility journey, and alongside her clinical practice, she is dedicated to training the next generation of reproductive medicine specialists.
Big Miracles offers an unprecedented look into fertility treatment journeys, and we discover how patients were selected, how their privacy was managed, and how the filming process affected their experience compared to typical fertility treatments.
We discuss unexplained infertility - from its diagnosis and prevalence to its emotional impact - and learn about how medical understanding has evolved, when couples should seek help, and what misconceptions exist about this condition.
