For this generation, it’s not uncommon to hear of a woman who has decided to delay starting a family.
With the amount of opportunities we now have, and the fact that birth control exists, we can decide when and at what stage of life we want children.
Zoe Marshall, blogger, radio personality and wife of three years to rugby league star Benji Marshall, has admitted she is not yet ready to have kids.

I was 17 when my doctor diagnosed me with endometriosis and told me to consider getting pregnant ASAP to deal with it. I changed doctors straight after.
I also have endo, doctors knew since I was 16ish, and they never, ever recommended to me or any of my friends with enod that we just "get pregnant" at 18 or 21? They certainly said start thinking about it sooner rather than later if we want children, which is good rational evidence based on biological odds. I would really question whether she's actually heard a doctor tell a 21 year old to have a hysto or get pregnant (unless it's an incredibly extreme case)
