On November 5th, the "Women's Physical and Mental Health & Emotional Support" charity initiative was officially launched by Leilawa.

Regarding the motivations behind this initiative, the team stated that in their daily work related to assisted reproduction and pre-pregnancy consultations, they have seen many women who focus solely on hormone levels and follicle counts. However, few of them discuss the psychological burden that comes with these procedures. Preparing for pregnancy is not just a matter of hormones and sperm-it is also a test of mental endurance. Women's emotional fluctuations, stress, and self-doubt during the long process of trying to conceive should be recognized, accepted, and supported by professionals.

1. The underestimated "hidden costs": The psychological burden of preparing for pregnancy

In various informational materials about preparing for pregnancy, there is plenty of information about physical examinations, medication plans, and technical options. But psychological support and emotional counseling are often overlooked, with people simply saying "just relax."

But real clinical experiences and user feedback show one thing clearly: anxiety, guilt, cyclical expectations and disappointments, and avoidance of social situations are almost always part of what most women go through during pregnancy preparation. What's more important is that prolonged high stress isn't just about feeling bad-it can affect ovulation patterns, luteal function, and the receptivity of the endometrium, creating a negative cycle where more anxiety makes it harder to conceive. The body and mind are connected. Focusing only on physical health without addressing emotions means that the preparation process is incomplete.

2. What exactly do we plan to do in this charity initiative?

This charity initiative will be carried out through four levels: education, tools, support, and referrals. The goal is to turn abstract concepts like "emotional support" into tangible, actionable help:

- Professional medical guidance: For those experiencing moderate to severe emotional distress, persistent depression, or obvious physical symptoms, we provide clear advice on when it's necessary to seek professional psychological intervention. This helps prevent problems from worsening due to delayed treatment.

III. We firmly oppose two common attitudes

There are two common beliefs regarding emotional issues during the pre-pregnancy period. These beliefs may seem comforting, but in reality, they actually exacerbate the problem. This is something we aim to correct through this public service initiative:

- Opposition to the attitude of "just relax":Emotional distress isn't just a matter of being "too fragile" or having "small minds". It has real physiological and psychological causes. A simple statement like "Stop thinking about it" essentially denies the person's feelings, which can lead to further emotional distress for women.

- Opposition to the attitude of "once I get pregnant, everything will be fine":Psychological support should start right before pregnancy, not wait until after conception to provide assistance. A stable emotional state is essential for getting pregnant. If we wait until the result is known, we may have missed the best time to intervene.

IV. Partners and family are the most important support systems

Many times, a word from family members can be more powerful than ten pieces of advice. For partners and family, true support doesn't mean constantly asking "how are you doing", but rather doing these three things:

- Instead of urging someone to "get pregnant soon", offer them support by accompanying them along. - Share the practical pressures that come with medical appointments and household chores. This way, women don't have to bear additional mental stress on top of their physical burdens. - Allow each other to have moments of sadness and frustration. Sometimes, quiet companionship is more effective than trying to solve problems with words.

V. The philosophy of Leila Wa: Humanistic care is the foundation of professional services

For Leila, humanistic care isn't just marketing rhetoric-it's the essential element of professional service. From daily consultations to comprehensive follow-ups, our services always take into account emotional aspects. We don't just tell women what tests they should undergo next, but also notice the fatigue in their voices and the anxiety in their words. We not only convey objective medical information, but also understand their concerns and hesitations.

We believe that women who are truly understood and treated well will respond positively from a physical perspective. And it's this public welfare initiative that helps every woman planning to conceive feel more stable and at ease. This is what we strive for over time.
