The Biological Clock: Taking Control of Your Dating Life
Thursday, September 25th
6:30pm - 8:00 pm
Manhattan Office
Co-sponsors: Extend Fertility and Real Live People Party
Whether you are trying to advance your career, stabilize your finances, or have yet to meet that certain someone that you wish to settle down with, the inexorable truth is there is no snooze button on your biological clock. You may feel increasing anxiety about starting your own family, especially as your peers start to marry and conceive. How can you go about simply enjoying dating, or pursuing alternative goals, instead of dating with desperation to find a lifetime partner?
This intimate panel discussion will focus on the biological clock and
its impact on dating and personal relationships. The panelists include: RMA
of New York's Co-Medical Director
Dr. Alan Copperman
and clinical
psychologist
Dr. Georgia Witkin
(published books include "The Female Stress Syndrome" and "It's Not You, It's Him"), along with Ilana Eberson- an expert in dating, relationship, and personal growth fields. Topics will include the latest advancements in assisted reproductive technology and fertility preservation, fertility basics and myths, the challenges associated with trying to conceive, and how the reality of the biological clock impacts interpersonal relationships, personal decision-making and dating.
Light refreshments will be served.
