Hi everyone, here is the link to the YouTube video of Chas from Emmerdale speaking about her IVF journeys. Wouldn't life be so much easier if IVF wasn't a taboo topic?

Thanks for posting this, it's spot on!! IVF should not be a taboo topic and I'm certainly not making a secret about in my life - not shouting it from the rooftops but if it comes up, I'll be straight. If someone has a problem with it.. well it's not my problem 😄😄 xoxo

I'm so glad she decided to share the story behind her conception. I think most people knew she was pregnant with twins but didn't know it was as a result of ivf

thanks for posting this. It's good that someone in the public eye is being so open and honest. Infertility and all things related shouldn't be taboo. I found after my miscarriage that once I opened up and talked about it, it's far more common than you first realise and I found out one or two colleagues had been in the same position unfortunately. It shouldn't be something that is kept hidden. We can all find comfort in openly sharing.

I genuinely think there should be much much more awareness of fertility and that women should check out much earlier their ovarian egg reserve. Never imagined at the age of 36 that I wouldn't be able to have children due to very low egg level xx

Thank you for posting this, it's great to see tv stars raising awareness of this seemingly silenced but massively important subject.

Let's face it, if the challenges of fertility had been discussed more openly in the media and as even part of our school sex ed rather than solely how not to get pregnant then maybe fertility concerns wouldn't be so widespread and we could have made informed choices before we hit this point.

Chas does appear quite unperturbed about the ivf process though... hmm.

Anyhoo, I hope that Chas's honesty prompts other stars to do the same and hope she has a healthy pregnancy. 😊 xx
