Fertility treatment: Is there enough workplace support?

Juggling work and fertility treatment can be difficult - due to the many appointments and physical and mental effects of procedures like IVF. Callers share their experiences.

Fertility issues affect an estimated 3.5 million people in the UK.

IVF is an option for some couples, but attending many medical appointments - alongside dealing with the physical and mental effects of treatment - can be difficult at work.

5 Live's Nicky Campbell speaks to callers about their experience.

This programme was part of #大象传媒FertilityDay - a joint production for Radio 5 Live and Radio 2.
