Series 3, Episode 2 with Rob Kemp

Welcome to a new episode of The Male Fertility Podcast, where we're joined by another guy sharing his story to help others.

This week, we chat with Rob as he shares his personal journey through infertility.

After months of trying to conceive, Rob and his partner initially received a misdiagnosis of PCOS. Frustrated and searching for answers, Rob took it upon himself to have a sperm test, and the adverse results led him to speak to Dr. Jonathon Ramsay, who identified a varicocele, and diagnosed Rob with high DNA fragmentation following examination and testing.

Rob and his wife then tried to navigate the NHS fertility process, and were told that their only option was ICSI - with little explanation as to why, and no with alternative pathways being provided. He highlights the lack of accessible information and clear communication for male fertility patients, leading to feelings of frustration and isolation.

Rob reflects on the critical role of support from friends and family, emphasising the power of opening up.

Tune in to hear Rob's story in full, as well as his advice for anyone in the same situation now.
