Are you an MRKHer in Ireland? If so, you might be Are you an MRKHer in Ireland? If so, you might be interested in the upcoming #MRKH Day hosted by the @rotundahospital at the Spencer Hotel on 20th November We know how important not only connection but also finding accurate information about your diagnosis and what this means. With hospital led information days complementing peer events they are a great way to find out more or ask those questions in a safe and informative space. We are delighted to share this upcoming event from our friends at the Rotunda Hospital open to all with MRKH in the area and their families. Find out more under events in our bio or email the team - PAGQueries@rotunda.ie. #mrkh #mrkheducation #support #peersupport #community #mrkhempowerment #infertility #mentalhealth #journey #hope #connection #informationevent #health #womenshealth
Yesterday, the MRKH community watched in awe, as M Yesterday, the MRKH community watched in awe, as MRKH advocate, Lauren Fowler, shared her story on mainstream TV! ❤️ Born without a womb, Lauren Fowler thought she’d never have a baby… until her sister Kelly offered her womb instead. Following an 11-hour operation, Kelly’s womb was successfully transplanted to Lauren in 2025. And now Lauren is 26 weeks pregnant with her miracle baby. The sisters joined ITVs @thismorning , alongside Lauren’s partner David. Again, Lauren, thank you for shining a light on MRKH and the future of what’s to come. Congratulations. ✨ #mrkh #wombtransplant #infertility
Being a woman is not defined by our ability to bec Being a woman is not defined by our ability to become a mother. We need to change the outdated narrative and the pressure it can so often create and the unwanted questions it provokes. Infertility affects 1 in 7 heterosexual couples in the UK. Not everyone who struggles with infertility will have children either because of choice, circumstance or other. And do you know what? THAT'S OK Let's normalise the conversation. Whatever your path, know it's valid and much more importantly, it's yours. Every path is different. #mrkh #mrkhwarrior #warrior #community #childless #childfree #lifewithoutchildren #peersupport #support #mrkhempowerment #mrkheducation #infertility#mentalhealth #health #courage #strength

I'M OK is a project encouraging individuals to tal I'M OK is a project encouraging individuals to talk about their emotional wellbeing and mental health experiences in their own words whilst telling their story through their portraits. This project has never before focused on just one condition and we are so excited to see MRKH highlighted in this way. We all know that mental health impact is often under represented and supported so this project aims to refocus our attention on the impact MRKH has on our mental health and emotional wellbeing in our own words unfiltered, unscripted, unreleased. A way to shine a light but also provide comfort and support in recognisable feelings when so often we can feel alone in these thoughts. Whether you are living with MRKH or supporting someone with MRKH wherever you are in the 🌎, we invite you to share with us only if you feel comfortable to do so. There are so many ways to approach your submission and no right or wrong way to share your picture or story. Just like Mia shows here it doesn't even have to show your face it's about sharing an image that you can see yourself in. We would love to share yours 💜 #mrkh #warrior #mentalhealth #mrkhempowerment #hope

Strength is more than physical it's something deep Strength is more than physical it's something deep inside us. We don't always know its there. In fact we may think it is something we don't have at all. We may look at others and wonder how they do it and perhaps even how they make it look "so easy". But strength doesn't have to be big and flashy. It is often subtle and unobtrusive keeping us moving even when it feels overwhelming. Building your power your way. #journey #mrkh #infertility #mrkhempowerment #strength

We want to give a shout out to the lovely Emma-Mai We want to give a shout out to the lovely Emma-Mai from our community who inspired today's post (probably without even knowing). Our society draws our attention to parenthood as a norm without considering that childlessness (elective or otherwise) is the reality for many and is no less valid. It's not a case of one path is more important than the other but that they are different and not really comparable at all. The only similarity is that emotions play in to journeys on both sides where pathways with children as well as without can be paved with uncertainty, frustration and sadness but also, importantly joy. We celebrate the wonderful successes of science that brings about the chances that many hope for but equally we see so many in our community (including members of the Board) thriving without the children they hoped for. Childlessness or "Otherhood" as coined by the wonderful Emma-Mai may not be the path many of us expected or chose but it doesn't mean we can't live, thrive and build a legacy. Our success and legacy is not dictated by the ability to have a child but by striving to be the best version of ourselves, to find our path and importantly our happy. Whatever that looks like for us. If you haven't seen our resources on Life Without Children follow the link in our bio and if you have a story to share we would love to hear from you - DM for more details! 💜 #mrkh #childless #lifewithoutchildren #support #peersupport #community #mrkhempowerment #mrkheducation #infertility
