exonthebeach star Jess Impiazzi shares 'heartbreak' over early menopause and starts IVF
Jess Impiazzi revealed her heartbreak at being told of her fertility problems and at risk of early menopause but said she still wants to have children.
Jess said: "I have always wanted to have a family so to be told the chances of having my own children are slim is heartbreaking. We had talked about kids but we haven’t even been together for two years and assumed we had more time." Speaking about her diagnosis, Jess explained that she began missing periods, suffered irregular heavy bleeding, experienced fatigue, brain fog and anxiety at the age of 30.
Instead of the usual six to 15 on each ovary, Jess has just three functioning follicles on one, cutting her chances of conceiving. Taking to her Instagram, Jess posted a comment on her recent interview. She wrote: "Soo today my story about women’s health and menopause came out so just wanted to do a little post alongside it.
