Nicola is a fat-positive fertility coach and author of “Fat and Fertile”.
She helps fat folks navigate getting pregnant in a weight-obsessed world and advocates for change in how fat people are treated whilst accessing help with their fertility.
Nicola uses her unique fat positive framework to support people in finding their own version of health without diets, advocate for their bodies, relearn how to trust their body and believe in their ability to get pregnant.
In this episode we discuss:
- Why women in bigger bodies are often discriminated against in the fertility world
- Why BMI should not be used to determine who is entitled to fertility treatment or not and the reasons behind why it's currently used!
- Why weight does not always have a direct correlation to a woman's fertility
- Ways you can approach medical professionals in a non confrontational way with the evidence base to get the care you deserve.
- where to go to find evidence around weight and fertility
You can find many more resources at Nicola's website.
