Dr. Chi's Inspiring Journey Highlights Infertility Issues for Black Women



In December, Dr. Chinyere “Dr. Chi” Johnson, a dedicated physician based in Houston, Texas, took the courageous step of sharing her personal struggles with infertility through a compelling video series. This project began as a private recording of her experiences trying to conceive and the challenges faced, including painful losses and the often-dismissed symptoms that many Black women encounter. What she intended as a private outlet quickly morphed into a widespread conversation, racking up over 10 million views within the first month across various social media platforms.

Dr. Chi’s willingness to open up about her journey resonated with countless viewers, sparking dialogue around critical topics such as medical bias and maternal health disparities. Research has shown that Black women in the U.S. are statistically at a higher risk for complications and mortality related to pregnancy, with factors such as delayed medical recognition and care compounding these issues. These stark statistics highlight a systemic problem that has long been overlooked, and Dr. Chi's story aims to change that.
