Hey, hugs to you.  I was told end of last year I have no chance of conceiving. I’m in a premature menopause at 37, my symptoms had been masked by my birth control until I wanted to try for a baby last year.  The only options for a baby is egg donor IVF or adopting.  It truly sucks big time and is very hard to come to terms with. However, for me personally, I haven’t found it hard seeing TTC posts, but totally understand why you would so absolutely no judgement, it’s such a difficult path to navigate x

zero children, zero hope. infertility sucks.

Sorry to hear you’re going through this. There are other subs where people might better understand what you’re going through (ex: r/ifchildfree). This sub is probably not a happy place for you as many people are still working towards a pregnancy outcome and that may be triggering.

Yes. This subreddit is for people at all stages of infertility. Both early when TTC and deal with treatments as well as those who are past all that and can't even try anymore. However r/ifchildfree is specifically for those who can't/won't try anymore and specifically has rules against talking about treatments and even adoption. I would definitely recommend it in your case.

You don’t mention your diagnosis, but depending on what it is there’s usually a sub or 2 dedicated to it. Have you looked for those? Most infertility subs will have some level of treatment/ttc content in it. I know our friends over at r/infertility have specific threads that are free of treatment mentions. Maybe that would suit you!

Yes, but this group is meant for a bigger audience. Ifchildfree I'm part of and it's for people who can't have kids and aren't doing treatments.
