What the petition asks
The Government should include discussions of Infertility, including make factors such as sperm quality and mobility, and the effects of this in the national curriculum, so it is taught in schools.
Infertility affects millions of people worldwide who have never learnt about fertility until their own experiences.
It makes people feel alone, isolated and different.
The reason for this is that there isn’t enough discussion and information within the current curriculum. We do not discuss how to improve fertility, what happens with infertility and the emotional and mental health effects that infertility can cause.
