Reproductive loss

Reproductive loss refers to a situation where a woman cannot have a baby even though she wants one. This can happen for a lot of different reasons. Sometimes, the woman's body isn't able to get pregnant or carry a baby to full term. Other times, there might be problems with the man's sperm or with the couple's ability to have sex. It can be really hard for people who want to have a baby but can't, and it's important to be kind and supportive to anyone going through this. There are often options for people who are struggling with reproductive loss, like adoption or fertility treatments, but it's up to each person to decide what's right for them.
