Kourtney Kardashian Opens Up About Challenging Fertility Journey with Travis Barker

Kourtney Kardashian recently opened up about the challenges she has faced while trying to conceive her first child with her fiancé, Travis Barker. She described the journey as mentally and physically difficult for any woman going through it. In a leaked trailer for their new reality series, The Kardashians, viewers caught a glimpse of the 42-year-old reality star undergoing a potential conception process with Barker during their visit to a specialist. Khloe Kardashian also shared her own emotional experience with infertility, as she went through a similarly challenging journey with in vitro fertilization, which was documented on season 20 of KUWTK.

Kourtney Kardashian recently opened up about the challenges she has faced while trying to conceive her first child with her fiancé Travis Barker. In a leaked trailer from their upcoming reality show, The Kardashians, Kourtney discussed how these difficulties have taken a toll on her both mentally and physically.

Last month, Kourtney also revealed that the medication she took during her IVF treatments caused her to experience menopause-like symptoms. This led to weight gain as her estrogen levels fluctuated. Menopause typically occurs between the ages of 45 and 55 due to a decline in estrogen levels as women age. However, the link between IVF treatment and triggering menopause is still not fully understood and requires more research.

Despite the challenges, Kourtney expressed her desire to have a baby with Travis in the voiceover of the trailer, which included footage of the Blink-182 drummer proposing to her on the beach.

In addition to her fertility struggles, Kourtney shared her frustration with the ‘rude’ comments she has received about her weight gain, which she attributes to her IVF drugs. She emphasized that it is unfair to judge or comment on someone’s appearance without knowing the battles they are facing.

Overall, Kourtney’s journey towards motherhood has been anything but easy, and she hopes that by sharing her experiences, others will understand the difficulties and show more empathy.

Teases: While chatting with her mom Kris Jenner, she jokingly mentioned, ‘The medicine I’ve been taking has actually turned me into a menopausal woman. Like, seriously, into actual menopause!’

“It’s truly a wonderful thing that we would be ecstatic to witness, but the path towards achieving it is quite challenging for any woman who embarks on this journey,” she expressed to Entertainment Tonight regarding her struggles with fertility. She made these remarks during the premiere of the new show on Thursday.

“The medication they have been administering to me has actually induced menopause. Yes, I am literally going through menopause,” she revealed.

IVF is typically pursued by women or couples who are facing difficulties in conceiving naturally. This process involves retrieving eggs from the ovaries, which are then fertilized with sperm in a laboratory before being transferred into the uterus.

In preparation for undergoing IVF, many women receive one or more types of fertility drugs prescribed by their doctors. These drugs trigger the release of hormones that stimulate egg production.

During the conversation, Kris seemed flustered and responded, “Based off of what? A drug?” Kourtney confirmed, “Yes,” although she did not specify the exact medications she had been taking as part of her fertility treatments.

In the video clip, Kourtney did not clarify whether she is still experiencing menopause or if she is only encountering menopause-like symptoms, which can include irregular periods, hot flashes, chills, night sweats, and weight gain.

Blended family: This lovely couple is the proud parents of a total of six children from their previous relationships. Scott Disick, the father of three children, and his ex-wife Shanna Moakler, who is the mother of three kids, have found happiness in their unique and diverse family dynamic. From left to right, their children include Alabama Moakler, Reign Disick, Landon Moakler, and Atiana De La Hoya. Together, they have created a beautiful and blended family unit filled with love and support.

Struggles also arose for Khloé during the final season of KUWTK, where she opened up about the difficulties she faced in conceiving a child. In her journey, she turned to the IVF process and created three embryos with her then-partner Tristan Thompson. However, she faced challenges as she experienced symptoms similar to those of menopause, such as hot flashes, weight gain, mood changes, and bloating, which were a result of the fertility drugs she took.

During a period of their tumultuous relationship, Khloé and Tristan had plans to expand their family and pursued an embryo retrieval procedure in the hope of giving her daughter True a sibling. However, Khloé revealed that her doctor had warned her about the risks associated with pregnancy, informing her that there was an 80% chance of miscarriage if she were to carry the embryos to term. This led to discussions and considerations of surrogacy as an alternative option.

Interestingly, Kendall Jenner had a strong belief that her half-sister belonged with Travis. According to Kourtney, Kendall had been advocating for their relationship to progress for quite some time. Kendall always expressed her enthusiasm, describing Travis as “so fire” whenever they would see him or spend time together, as shared by the Poosh blogger.

Kourtney recently revealed in an interview with PEOPLE magazine that it was Kendall, her younger sister, who had been relentlessly advocating for her to take her friendship with Barker, who is 46 years old, to the next level. This revelation comes after the two lovebirds were spotted together at the Vanity Fair party following the 94th Academy Awards just last month.

Sister intuition at its finest: Kendall Jenner always had this gut feeling that her half-sister Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker were meant to be together. In fact, Kendall even jokes about having a secret psychic ability that no one knows about. She had been rooting for them from the start, constantly urging Kourtney to give it a shot. After all, they had been close friends for such a long time, so Kendall saw no harm in taking their relationship to the next level.

Kourtney, on the other hand, initially had reservations about jeopardizing their friendship. However, as fate would have it, things fell into place perfectly, and now the couple is not only engaged but also had a spontaneous Las Vegas wedding after the Grammys last weekend.

The Kardashians have had their fair share of discussions about the undeniable connection between Kourtney and Travis. Kim and Khloe, in particular, have recognized the intense chemistry between the two. It was all a matter of timing, and everyone in the family was secretly hoping for them to get together. Well, their wishes came true, and Kourtney and Travis are showing no signs of slowing down.

It was an intimate affair for Kourtney and Travis when they entered the One Love Wedding Chapel. With their vibrant energy, they resembled excited youngsters exploring a candy store. This delightful couple tied the knot in Las Vegas, Nevada, shortly after attending the memorable Grammy Awards. The events leading up to their wedding were nothing short of extraordinary.

Sweethearts: According to Dean, Travis expressed himself through his eyes, conveying his joy and excitement about marrying Kourtney. Just a week ago, the couple arrived at the One Love Wedding Chapel in Las Vegas, described as being as happy as kids in a candy shop after attending the Grammy Awards. Dean emphasized that Travis’s eyes spoke volumes, expressing his awe and gratitude towards Kourtney. Despite a night of revelry, Dean noted that the couple was very articulate and sincere during their vows, making the ceremony particularly meaningful. He highlighted the clarity of their speech and the loving gaze Travis had for Kourtney, reminiscent of the way he looks at his own wife.

Their past state: Even though they were inebriated, Dean disclosed that they both were undeniably sincere when exchanging their vows, infusing the ceremony with profound significance.

Kourtney took to her Instagram account to share a series of photos capturing the joyous moments of her late-night wedding ceremony at the MGM Grand, following an awards show. Prior to exchanging vows, Kourtney and Travis were already wearing rings, so they proceeded with a ring ceremony. The highlight of the ceremony was Dean’s performance of Elvis Presley’s Can’t Help Falling in Love and A Mess Of Blues, which accompanied the couple’s romantic kiss.

It is believed that Kourtney and Travis paid an additional $600 for Dean to officiate the wedding, while the actual ceremony itself cost only $199. The couple insisted on having an Elvis impersonator to make their special moment truly iconic.

Kourtney and Travis have been in a relationship for over a year now and were friends before that, as they were neighbors in Calabasas, California. In October, Travis proposed to Kourtney on the beach during a sunset, while her family watched from afar. Kourtney has three children from her previous relationship with Scott Disick, and Travis has children as well.
