You might track your sleep, count your steps and make sure you eat well — but how much do you actually know about what affects your fertility? That's the question behind #FertilityFitIRL, a free pop-up coming to The Atrium at Federation Square later this month. Join activist and author Chanel Contos and former AFL pro and men's fertility health advocate Reece Conca to bust the biggest myths about fertility health and see how it fits into your overall wellbeing (even if you're not sure about kids yet). Contos and Conca will be on deck throughout to host, chat with participants and help you get to know an important part of your health that you might not have been taught about in school or later in life.

Then you'll test your mental agility at a row of interactive digital kiosks, which quiz you on how much you really know about fertility and reproductive systems. The #FertilityFitIRL pop-up is brought to you by Fertility Fit, an initiative that aims to help young Australians understand their fertility health early with clear, evidence-based information, whether or not they're thinking about conceiving. Your fertility health is an important part of your overall health and wellbeing, whether you're hoping to have kids someday, undecided or not planning a family right now. #FertilityFitIRL takes over The Atrium at Federation Square on Friday, October 23 from 9am–2pm, and entry is free.
