#89 Double the Uterus, Double the Journey with Gemma Clark

This week’s episode with Gemma Clark, shines a light on CAPA-IVM (in-vitro maturation), an emerging technology in fertility treatment that offers hope to patients with PCOS and other conditions. A classic PCOS case with no ovulation, Gemma’s fertility journey has been anything but typical. From discovering she has two uteruses, two cervixes, and a tiny second vagina during pre-treatment screening, to a miraculous natural conception of her first child, her story is a testament to resilience. Now, Gemma is embarking on CAPA-IVM with PGT testing. This innovative approach matures eggs outside the body, offering a lower-stimulation alternative to traditional IVF—an especially exciting development for women with PCOS. Tune in to hear Gemma’s honest account of the challenges and possibilities of fertility treatment, and what CAPA-IVM could mean for the future of reproductive medicine.
