A Muslim Woman’s Guide to Surviving Infertility, by Farah Dualeh


Many young women around the world find themselves in a place they never imagined as little girl. While ‘most’ women dream to grow up, marry a nice man and have beautiful children, ‘some’ women struggle with the third step. This difficult passage of life with infertility can be scary and lonely.

Trying to conceive and struggling with it is difficult and confusing; but in Taking Control, author Farah Dualeh shows how this journey can be survived. As a Muslim woman who had to go through this journey herself for a long time, Dualeh is sharing her first-hand experience in this self-help book on how to draw on prescriptions from psychology and Islam to take control of the process within oneself, in marriage, in relation to social pressures, on treatment options, and possible family setups.

Farah Dualeh has historically worked in the charity sector for over 12 years and has a BA in Social Science and a postgraduate qualification in Community Leadership and Law. Farah is the founder of Inspire Her Coaching, a life coaching and training service for women. Having experienced infertility herself and trying to conceive for more than a decade, she’s extremely passionate about helping Muslim women navigate infertility and live happy, fulfilling lives despite the hardship of TTC.
