how I envisioned myself trying to conceive when I learned I had low Vitamin D
Overview
This meme uses an iconic scene from the original Pokémon animated series, where protagonist Ash Ketchum is shown straining to reach towards the extremely powerful legendary Pokémon Mewtwo. The text at the top of the meme reads 'how I envisioned myself trying to conceive when I learned I had low Vitamin D'. The Ash character is labeled 'MY HUSBAND'S SPERM', while Mewtwo is labeled 'MY EGG'. The joke draws a parallel between the extremely daunting task of fighting Mewtwo and the difficulty of conceiving when affected by low Vitamin D, framing the unfertilized egg as an intimidating, unapproachable obstacle.
Origin notes
This meme was sourced from an RSS feed of the Reddit r/Meme subreddit. The original poster added accompanying context that their annual physical examination did not include testing for Vitamin D levels, which worsened their fertility related frustrations. The meme repurposes a widely recognized scene from the Pokémon anime, edited with overlay text to create a relatable joke about fertility struggles and common gaps in routine health screenings.
