Dr. Dana Cohen joins us today as we’re digging into water and why staying hydrated matters for fertility. I remember feeling so busy that I didn’t even have time to take a pee break (and when I did I wanted to pee faster). Yes, I’ve worked on my impatience. Looking back I know that I was chronically dehydrated. I thought it was normal to only urinate 1-2 times per day. Turns out that being properly hydrated is crucial for your health and fertility. After all staying hydrated helps with cervical ...

Dr. Kirstie Cunningham joins us today as we're digging into how to deal with hormone imbalance, hot flashes, and POI. Over the last few weeks, we’ve been talking about a functional approach for premature ovarian insufficiency. I know I had hot flashes and signs of hormone imbalance years before I was diagnosed with premature ovarian insufficiency at 28. I had no idea there were targeted strategies I could take that would help to get pregnant naturally. When we combine the best of the functional ...

Vicki Clifford joins us today as we're digging into what we wish we knew when we were diagnosed with POI/POF. Typically the conventional approach offers very few solutions for these diagnoses as IVF is often not an option and donor eggs are a standard recommendation. What we know after working with couples with low AMH/high FSH is that healing opportunities are regularly missed. When we look at the whole body we can begin to bring the body back into balance so that we can optimize preconception ...

Justine Altman joins us today as we're digging into how to optimize pregnancy success with POI/POF. The standard approach for a diagnosis of premature ovarian insufficiency/failure is donor eggs. What we know from helping women with POI/POF conceive naturally or improve their chances of pregnancy success at the clinic with their own eggs is healing opportunities are regularly missed. It is not about myopically focusing on the POI/POF diagnosis but looking at the whole body. When we take a person...

Dr. Aumatma Shah joins us today as we're digging into miscarriage and trying to conceive after loss. Many women suffer from miscarriage and repeat miscarriage. The devastating emotional toll it takes can be hard to endure. It’s a topic that is still very taboo and couples are even hesitant to tell close friends and family members that they are pregnant for fear of losing the baby and then having to explain the loss. When we do experience a miscarriage, what we need most is support and understand...

Sheri Johnson joins us today as we're digging into how to heal from miscarriage. I regularly speak with women who have experienced miscarriage and recurrent miscarriage. Many times they may not even have shared that they are pregnant (i.e. we wait for the magic 12-week date to announce), which may lead to further isolation. These intense feelings of loss and grief can be overwhelming. All too often these feelings can be suppressed and misunderstood by friends and family. I’m excited to welcome S...

Justine Altman joins us today as we’re digging into how to optimize pregnancy success after miscarriage. Experiencing a miscarriage opens you up to a tremendous range of emotions, including anger, depression, isolation, and shame. If you’ve had a miscarriage, it’s vital not to judge yourself or your feelings. Pregnancy loss is physical and emotional trauma, and you should take the time you need to work through it. When you’re ready to try to conceive again , we review some of the most common rea...

Erin Oberlander joins us today as we’re digging into how to reduce stress with holistic lifestyle hacks. What I’ve found working with couples on the fertility journey is that oftentimes joy is put on hold. We can only be happy when we’re pregnant and when our baby arrives. Until then happiness and joy evade us. I can relate to the feeling of wanting to have my child so badly, that nothing else mattered. I remember feeling so singularly focused and driven to get pregnant that I didn’t pay attenti...

Welcome to day #3 of Mini-Series on how to optimize egg health so you can improve the chances of pregnancy success. We see this all the time. Couples being told that their thyroid is normal and they are still not able to conceive. If you’ve only looked at the TSH there are potential missed healing opportunities. I was told my thyroid was normal and my hair was falling out, my skin was dry as a lizard and my hands and feet were always cold. Don’t take no for an answer. You know your body best. Le...
