Jennifer Aniston is speaking about her fertility struggles and IVF attempts for the first time.

The “Friends” alum described the “challenging road” in her Allure December 2022 cover story published Wednesday, saying she experienced “hard s–t” while trying to conceive.

“If it wasn’t for going through that, I would’ve never become who I was meant to be. That’s why I have such gratitude for all those s–tty things,” she said, clarifying that she was “trying to get pregnant” several years ago.

During “all the years of [media] speculation,” Aniston, 53, was “going through IVF [and] drinking Chinese teas.”
