I'm not an infertility blogger, but infertility is a subject close to my heart. My husband and I have been TTC for just about two years now, with no success and a lot of illness and struggle.

Hi, Keiko (and everyone)! I know Keiko from the infertility blogosphere. I jumped at the opportunity to be an early member of Bliss Connect to continue reaching out and advocating for infertility awareness. I have what I consider "subfertility" in the form of PCOS. We tried for 2.5 years to conceive naturally before receiving a diagnosis. I was finally able to conceive each of my pregnancies on Clomid, and now we have four lovely children (twins, two singletons). I knew that we we were lucky; as a way to help others, I then became a gestational surrogate. I delivered a baby boy 4 years ago to my former intended parents. I tried unsuccessfully to help 3 other couples since then, and now I'm hung up my surrogacy hat and am "retired." 

I still advocate for infertility awareness. Though I have completed my family, reproductive health is still important to me as PCOS will always continue to affect my health and well-being. I enjoy being able to help others as a source of information and support through their own infertility journeys, especially when at the early stages of diagnosis or when third-party reproduction is needed. I look forward to getting to know everyone better!

Hello Keiko! I saw one of your videos on YouTube. :) Great to *meet* you here. I'm creating a women's circle here in CA for women to connect and fall in love with their juicy fertile selves. Looking forward to getting to know you better.

I'm excited to join this circle in hopes that I could connect with other young women who have had a hysterectomy at a young age and now have to live with the aftermath of cancer. 

I am taking an HRT that I find relief from but realize that after trying other natural alternatives that didn't help that not too many people are in my shoes.
