Fertility, Stigma & Silence: Breaking the Taboo in Our South Sudanese Communities

In this powerful episode, the Ladies of SOSA tackle one of the most personal and rarely discussed topics in our communities — fertility struggles. From PCOS and male infertility to cultural pressures, shame, and the painful silence many women face, our panel unpacks it all. We explore how tradition, stigma, and lack of awareness shape how infertility is seen in South Sudanese and African diaspora communities. Through real stories, medical insight, and heartfelt conversation, we challenge the idea that a woman’s worth is tied to childbirth — and call for more compassion, understanding, and open dialogue.
