[quote=Anonymous]OP I just posted but I'll also add that something about the timeline of the conception process creates a uniquely cruel cycle of hope and failure that makes it hard to quit. Every period is another cycle, another try. You get your hopes up, you fail, you have another chance. It gets in your head unlike anything I've ever been through. You also fall deep into a sunk cost fallacy. Once you're on your 6th IVF or something you're more than 100k in the hole in dollars and mentally you have sunk an incredible amount of energy, how do you give up then? It like the frog in the pot, its hard to know when the water starts boiling. [/quote]
