Abstract
Fertility education needs to be at the top of the agenda if we want to make a major impact in preventing infertility. We have been successful in reducing teenage pregnancies through Sex and Relationship education (SRE) and education on contraception. Sex and relationship education is for now and fertility education is for the future. Conception and contraception are two sides of the same coin. We need to empower our young people with education on fertility so that they can stand a better chance of falling pregnant when they choose to. Education empowers.
