WEBVTT - Introducing: Misconception

0:00:00.120 --> 0:00:04.640
<v Speaker 1>A few years ago, I started really freaking out. I

0:00:04.680 --> 0:00:07.400
<v Speaker 1>was in my mid thirties. The time on my biological

0:00:07.400 --> 0:00:10.600
<v Speaker 1>clock was quickly running out. So I set off to

0:00:10.640 --> 0:00:14.040
<v Speaker 1>figure out whether I should freeze my eggs. But along

0:00:14.080 --> 0:00:16.640
<v Speaker 1>the way I found more, a lot more.

0:00:17.000 --> 0:00:20.640
<v Speaker 2>Most people have no idea what happens in the lab

0:00:20.960 --> 0:00:22.040
<v Speaker 2>of a fertility clinic.

0:00:22.320 --> 0:00:25.320
<v Speaker 3>The industry was built as a niche for high net

0:00:25.320 --> 0:00:26.320
<v Speaker 3>worth individuals.

0:00:26.560 --> 0:00:28.360
<v Speaker 1>I called it, like the cults have never give up.

0:00:28.640 --> 0:00:32.120
<v Speaker 1>I'm Bloomberg Health reporter Kristen V. Brown. My new series,

0:00:32.280 --> 0:00:35.479
<v Speaker 1>Misconception journeys to the core of an industry where some

0:00:35.560 --> 0:00:38.520
<v Speaker 1>of the most intimate, emotional and trying moments in life

0:00:38.880 --> 0:00:42.520
<v Speaker 1>collide with business. A world where the costs are high,

0:00:42.920 --> 0:00:46.440
<v Speaker 1>but the odds are sometimes low, Where miracles happen but

0:00:46.520 --> 0:00:47.400
<v Speaker 1>soda mistakes.

0:00:47.800 --> 0:00:51.400
<v Speaker 4>It's all oh so terrifying. Yeah.
