How Your Fertility Pharmacist at Work
I am delighted to be joined by the wonderful Sarah Cunniffe, an experienced fertility pharmacy technician who truly understands what it means to care for people doing IVF and fertility treatment.
This is the conversation I wish everyone had before collecting their first fertility medication pack.
Sarah brings warmth, clarity, reassurance, and deep practical wisdom to a part of treatment that is so often overwhelming, rushed, or brushed aside.
We talk about why having an experienced fertility pharmacist in your corner matters more than people realise, and how the right support at this stage can reduce anxiety, prevent or rectify mistakes, and help you feel steadier and more confident throughout your cycle.
We explore what really happens at the pharmacy counter when you collect your meds, the questions people are often afraid to ask, and the things Sarah wishes every patient knew.
From timings, storage, injections, side effects, and those “is this normal?” moments, Sarah explains how pharmacists can be a calm, informed anchor during a very intense phase of treatment.
This episode is also about care. About being seen.
About the relief that comes from dealing with someone who understands fertility treatment inside out, and who treats you like a person, not a prescription.
If you are preparing for IVF, already mid-cycle, or supporting someone through treatment, this episode will leave you feeling informed, reassured, and far less alone.
Please share it with someone who needs to hear it.
