<v Speaker 1>Hey, it's David Popotopolis, the host of elon Inkom Bloomberg Podcasts.

<v Speaker 1>I want to tell you about the gripping new season

<v Speaker 1>Brown on her own intimate journey as she uncovers the

0:00:15.120 --> 0:00:18.400
<v Speaker 1>business of fertility. Along the way, she finds a profit

0:00:18.520 --> 0:00:21.319
<v Speaker 1>driven field of medicine that thrives on doing messages of

0:00:21.360 --> 0:00:24.040
<v Speaker 1>hope and fear as people gamble at all for a

0:00:24.120 --> 0:00:26.480
<v Speaker 1>chance at a baby. Listen to the new season of

0:00:35.560 --> 0:00:40.120
<v Speaker 2>A few years ago, I started really freaking out. I

0:00:40.159 --> 0:00:42.840
<v Speaker 2>was in my mid thirties. The time on my biological

0:00:42.880 --> 0:00:46.080
<v Speaker 2>clock was quickly running out, so I set off to

0:00:46.120 --> 0:00:49.480
<v Speaker 2>figure out whether I should freeze my eggs. But along

0:00:49.520 --> 0:00:52.080
<v Speaker 2>the way I found more, a lot more.

0:00:52.479 --> 0:00:56.120
<v Speaker 3>Most people have no idea what happens in the lab

0:00:56.400 --> 0:00:57.520
<v Speaker 3>of a fertility clinic.

0:00:57.760 --> 0:01:00.720
<v Speaker 2>The industry was built as a niche or high net

0:01:00.760 --> 0:01:03.360
<v Speaker 2>worth individuals. I called it like the cults have never

0:01:03.400 --> 0:01:06.800
<v Speaker 2>give up. I'm Bloomberg Health reporter Kristen V. Brown. My

0:01:06.920 --> 0:01:10.560
<v Speaker 2>new series, Misconception, journeys to the core of an industry

0:01:10.600 --> 0:01:13.600
<v Speaker 2>where some of the most intimate, emotional, and trying moments

0:01:13.640 --> 0:01:17.520
<v Speaker 2>in life collide with business. A world where the costs

0:01:17.520 --> 0:01:21.160
<v Speaker 2>are high, but the odds are sometimes low. Where miracles

0:01:21.160 --> 0:01:27.200
<v Speaker 2>happen but soda mistakes. It's all oh slightly terrifying. Yeah.
