Summary
We give an update on our embryo transfer cycle and hear from a listener who successfully got his employer to offer better fertility coverage. We also discuss decision-making when it comes to IVF (and other things) and get some responses to egg/protocol/lining signals, and Matt talks about his recent struggles with migraines.
