That Time of the Month: Unexplained infertility & the emotional impact
That Time of the Month with Naga Munchetty, Dr Nighat Arif and Dr Christine Ekechi
Naga and the doctors are joined by 5 Live sports presenter Shabnam Younis Jewell to talk about the emotional impact of unexplained infertility. The NHS estimates that in the UK, unexplained infertility accounts for around 1 in 4 cases of couples being unable to conceive - that's when both partners have been examined and no cause can be identified for the infertility in either of them.
This episode was first broadcast on BBC 5 Live on 8th September 2026.
