Channel Seven star Erin Holland has provided her social media followers with a heartbreaking update about her ongoing fertility battle.
The presenter, 36, hoped to start a family with her Australian cricketer husband Ben Cutting following their 2021 wedding – only to discover IVF was their best option to have a baby.
Taking to Instagram this week, the former Miss World Australia confirmed they are still at square one despite four years of trying.
'Here we go again,' she wrote with an accompanying photo from a hospital.
'I'm (now) breaking up the highlights reel with some real talk.
'Many losses, many failed transfers down, today was all about exploratory surgery, internal 'renovations' and starting testing from scratch again to try and find some answers to the soul-destroying unknown.

'What's the missing piece of the puzzle? Injections, steroids, so many drugs... it's far more emotionally and physically draining than we ever bargained for.'
Holland's emotional post also included a picture of several vials in a bathroom.
'Infertility feels like your face is pressed up against the glass of a club you so badly want to be a part of, but no one is letting you in,' she added.
Among those to support Holland publicly included Nadia Bartel, Home and Away star Ada Nicodemou and fellow cricket presenter Grace Hayden.
Holland also previously stated she 'let Ben down' after failing to fall pregnant and her 'sense of failure is overwhelming'.
In recent years, Holland has been a regular on Seven's cricket coverage, including the men's and women's Big Bash tournaments.
After hanging up his cricket spikes, Cutting has turned his attention to the property market, securing a role as an agent with U Real Estate in Brisbane.
'It definitely has the highs and lows like cricket does,' he told realestate.com.au.
'I've been doing everything from cold calling, to door knocking to letter box drops.
'Sometimes I get told to f*** off; it's rather humbling.'
