The actress took to social media to vent about trying to get pregnant. Find out what a woman’s journey is like in having a child
On TikTok, actress Mariana Rios said she was trying to get pregnant and opened up about the process: “I, Mariana, am trying to get pregnant. And trying, sometimes, is very lonely.”
From temptation to pregnancy
The term “trying” is already extremely popular among couples to designate those seeking pregnancy. According to Fernando Prado, human reproductive specialist, member of the American Society of Reproductive Medicine (ASRM) and clinical director of Neo Vita, it means dedicating yourself completely to the process of getting pregnant and building a family. “It is not an easy journey. What seems simple often ends up becoming a long process, with great psychological disappointments, relationship tensions and unpredictable financial expenses. However, the goal is very noble: to bring a new life into the world and build a family they are very worthy desires and are worth the effort to achieve,” explains the doctor.
The Journey of the Temptress
This phase begins as soon as you get married or when you have a stable relationship and the desire to get pregnant makes itself felt. It is not uncommon for ‘requests’ to begin in this period: “when will you have a child?”, “I want a grandchild”, “don’t be an old mother” and even the embarrassing “don’t be a mother” be an aunt”.
“At this point, the woman who is trying is probably no longer using any contraceptive methods and has been trying to get pregnant for a few months. She rarely sees a doctor at this stage of the journey, after all, many believe that getting pregnant is easy, you just have to relax and try. It’s not always like that,” the doctor says.
The anguish of time passing
“A few months (or years…) pass and the pregnancy does not occur. At that moment the woman decides to turn to a gynecologist. Her husband or partner rarely thinks that the problem could concern him and does not go to a urologist , after all, our society is still very sexist and pregnancy is “a female problem”, says the doctor. “After some consultations and visits to the gynecologist, the pregnant woman undergoes general tests and starts taking folic acid (methylfolate). ) to prevent malformations in the baby and keeps trying… but the pregnancy insists it won’t happen,” she says.
I keep trying and nothing…
It’s time to go to the gynecologist again and decide to use drugs to induce ovulation. “The level is raised and now the woman who tries is officially undergoing treatment to get pregnant. The couple is defined as ‘infertile’, a term that brings a lot of sadness, disappointment and disappointment, but they never stop believing in it. After two or three attempts With drugs to induce ovulation, some temptresses finally achieve their goal: they are pregnant. But for the majority this is not the reality”, reports the specialist!
At this time, according to Prado, the gynecologist re-evaluates the examinations and treatment results and decides that it is no longer possible to continue with the simplest treatments, which we call “low complexity”. Then, the doctor sends the candidate to consult a human reproductive specialist.
“The attacker now most likely has something more complicated to solve and will need the help of the specialist. It may not seem like it, but a lot of time has passed and the attacker has been ‘trying’ for more than 3 years. Contact us at the specialist in human reproduction very tried, but also with a lot of hope,” he reports
Assisted reproduction
New rounds of tests are carried out, this time the couple is investigated more thoroughly. Some tests are expensive and not covered by health plans, and few doctors or laboratories are able to perform them. «The results are not long in coming and what was predicted ends up being confirmed: in vitro fertilization will be necessary. The candidate will have to undergo a very complex treatment. Here medical interventions are already greater, with injectable hormones, ultrasound monitoring, minor surgeries and a lot of anxiety,” says the doctor.
A process that requires acceptance
At this time, the patient needs a shoulder to lean on, a therapeutic partner who is understanding and supportive on this journey. The clinic and doctor specializing in assisted reproduction must also be present with the couple. “Welcoming and caring are almost mantras nowadays and they really make a difference. IVF treatments are not always successful on the first attempt and many things may be necessary: acupuncture, follow-up with psychologists, nutritionists, meditation, physical activity. ..”
However, after trying, it is possible to move from ‘trying’ to ‘conquering’. The journey can be very long and full of setbacks. But the end result is so noble that it will be worth it. And a lot”, concludes the doctor.
