The NFL broadcaster says she wants to be open about fertility struggles because of how common they are.
Veteran sportscaster Erin Andrews is speaking publicly about her fertility journey for the first time, revealing that she has been undergoing “time-consuming and emotionally draining” in vitro fertilization since she was 35.
Andrews, 43, wrote on Facebook Bulletin that she is undergoing her seventh round of IVF as she prepares for the upcoming football season.
“On top of being on a special assignment last week where I was sometimes working up to 14 hours a day, I also had to set aside time for IVF treatment,” the NFL broadcaster wrote. “I have been trying to do IVF treatment for a while now, but sometimes it doesn’t go the way you want it. Your body just doesn’t allow it.”
