Black Infertility: Am I the Only One?

You had your suspicions even before you mustered up the courage to walk through the fertility clinic doors. You failed to see Black faces and Black bodies on any of the fertility clinic websites. Black sperm donors, egg donors, and embryo donors are barely available. You have rarely, if ever, heard the topic of fertility discussed within your family or your community. Societal stereotypes tell us that Black bodies are hypersexual, and ergo hyper-fertile; so, then you cannot help but wonder, what is wrong with my body?
