Dr. Ebony J. Hilton speaks with Dr. Jackie Walters, OB-GYN and star of Bravo’s Married to Medicine, about the reality of infertility and why Black women are disproportionately affected. From higher rates of fibroids to unequal access to care and the impact of chronic stress, the conversation breaks down the medical and systemic factors driving the disparity. Dr. Walters also shares her personal journey with infertility, giving her a dual perspective as both physician and patient.
