NFXF Webinar Series – Reproductive Health

August 30 @ 7:00 PM8:00 PM EDT

Reproductive health is a broad topic, covering the physical and emotional components of areas like puberty, sexuality, reproductive options, and family planning. These topics can be challenging to cover, but they are important! 

Join us as we host Heather Hipp, MDSusan Howell, MS, CGC, MBA, and Victoria Wilkins, MD, for a discussion on Reproductive Health. The webinar will be a one-hour Q & A session, moderated by Hilary Rosselot.

We will share additional resources closer to the webinar. In the meantime, we recommend reviewing the compilation of resources at the link below and come prepared with your questions. You may also submit your questions in advance when completing your registration.

We will do our best to answer everyone’s questions. If you have additional questions, feel free to email us at contact@fragilex.org.

The webinar will be recorded and available to all registrants.
