Off the Record

Ask the fertility question you can’t ask out loud — not to your family, not to your friends, maybe not even to your doctor. Dr. Vani will answer it on camera, honestly.

  • No name, phone or email
  • We can’t trace it back to you
  • Answered on video

Ask your question

Write it the way you’d say it. Tamil or English, both are fine.

Please leave out names, places or details that could identify you or anyone else. 0 / 1500

No account, no sign-up.

Your question has been received

Thank you for trusting us with it. Dr. Vani’s team reads every question. We keep no record of who sent it, so it can’t be linked back to you.

Your privacy

What we keep, and what we don’t

Plainly, so you can decide for yourself.

We never ask for or save

  • Your name, phone number or email
  • Your IP address or location with your question
  • What you type, in our analytics or screen recordings

We only keep

  • The question you write
  • Who is asking, age range and language — only if you choose them
  • The date it arrived

Questions are stored privately on our own website and are seen only by Dr. Vani’s team. To prevent spam, the form briefly limits how many questions can be sent from one connection; that check is temporary and is never saved with your question.

Nothing is too small or too heavy

Questions people have been afraid to ask

If you’ve thought it, someone else has too.

Everybody points at me. Nobody has even tested him.

He will not come to the clinic. What do I do?

I had a termination before marriage. Is this punishment?

My in-laws do not know. Will reports come to the house?

We have spent six lakhs. When is enough?

If I stop, does that mean I gave up?
