A woman’s value is not defined by her ability or wish to have children - and yet society treats us with pity or scorn. Read my personal story and views on the myths & labels still wrongly applied to child free and child less women in Britain in @tortoise #childfree #childless
“Barren”, “left on the shelf”, “old maid” – why are the words used to describe women who have not become mothers so loaded with negativity?
A woman’s value, writes @BBCSangita, is not defined by her ability or wish to have children.

People with an unfulfilled child-wish undergo many private and challenging trials. More psychosocial care is needed, especially for those with limited social support. Help us in our attempts of understanding and improving the aftercare process here:

A big thank you to @notonthehighst who join many others with a thoughtful approach. 1 in 5 women are not parents, they may have seen their hopes of infertility treatment stalled. Many more may have lost their mums in these awful times.

Can you help @BBCYork & @nathaninyork with this? 'Our chap' is in Aus but we know many of you value our podcasts on male infertility & might be interested in this great opportunity to reach a wider audience, so good to see this being discussed. @RodSilvers @InvisibleCNBC?
