** Welcome to Season 5 of the Fertility Conversations Podcast. This is Episode 1 of this season.
.
In today's episode, we are joined by Andrea and Elin; the founders of the BUMPY app https://www.instagram.com/bumpyapp.se/?hl=en
They join us to share their own fertility journeys and share details of their fertility support app; BUMPY.
.
Andrea was born with MRKH syndrome which affects the female reproductive system with an absent or undeveloped uterus as one of the main characteristics. This condition affects 1 in 4500 girls globally. Andrea has done 7 IVF treatments to retrieve eggs from her ovaries and fertilised the eggs with her husband's sperm and was one of the 1st people in the world to go through a uterus transplant from a deceased donor but unfortunately she became really ill months after the procedure and had to remove the uterus before getting a chance to get pregnant. She is currently navigating alternative options to parenthood.
.
Elin went through a 10 year long infertility journey falling into the category of unexplained infertility. She has experienced recurrent miscarriages, 12 to be exact, including an ectopic pregnancy. She has gone through numerous IVF cycles at several clinics and had 13 embryo transfers in total on her journey to parenthood.
Both Andrea and Elin are very passionate about supporting people going through infertility with their free support app BUMPY. This main app features include:
A support community to meet and connect with others facing similar challenges or going through the same treatments or processes
Find & compare fertility clinics in one place based on your needs
Rate & review fertility clinics as honest opinions and sharing of experiences will help others navigate their journeys
BUMPY has many fertility clinics across Europe listed with reviews and recommendations to explore. In addition to the app, they have a new website bumpyclinics.com for people to find and review clinics as well.
.
They also have a campaign: "Babies that are in our hearts and not in our arms"
Most people with the desire and longing to become a parent have already given the unborn baby a name. Bumpy is creating a baby name list so in the app where you can add your name anonymously to help spread awareness around infertility and pregnancy loss.
.
