The journey
It didn't
A loss or a failed cycle — grief, support, and deciding what's next.
A failed cycle or a loss is one of the heaviest parts of this journey, and the disappointment is real whatever shape it took. A single setback is common, and on its own it says little about whether treatment can still work for you.
This path is about what comes next when you're ready, and not before: understanding what a cycle did and didn't show, the review conversation with your clinic, whether and when to try again, and support for the grief that often comes first. Take it at your own pace.
