#MentalHealthMatters

Tuesday 3rd November #MentalHealthMatters

Infertility is not only about physical health, but can take a toll on mental health too. The impact of COVID-19 with clinic closures and reduced capacity on reopening has increased distress for many patients, making our #MentalHealthMatters day more important than ever.
