If you missed our previous episode with Sarah on HA, we've linked it in the show notes for you.You can find Sarah on Instagram at @sarahlizking or visit her website for more info on her work in this space.Hypothalamic amenorrhea (HA) is responsible for around 30% of cases of secondary amenorrhea in women of reproductive age. In this episode, we delve into the topic of HA, clarifying what it is and dispelling common myths, like the misconception that it only affects individuals in smaller bodies or with eating disorders.At The Dietologist, we often see people with HA struggle to seek support because the solutions seem simple in theory: eat more, move less, and manage stress. However, we explore the complexities and barriers people face when trying to implement these changes, which can be rooted in body image issues, diet culture, eating disorders, habits, and fear of weight gain.Sarah shares practical strategies that have worked well for her clients in each aspect of HA management: nutrition, exercise, and stress.To book a session with The Dietologist team for a personalised approach to managing HA and supporting your fertility, head here.Want to keep listening?

Recurrent Implantation Failure (RIF) is a frustrating and challenging condition that affects some couples trying to conceive through IVF. The definition of RIF is 3 or more IVF attempts with good-quality embryos, this can be due to a number of factors, which we will discuss in today's episode. We are joined by our team dietitian at The Dietologist, Kaylee Slater APD to discuss the latest studies on the vaginal microbiome and its association with unexplained RIF, as well as endometritis and the use of an anti-inflammatory diet to assist in implantation. While there is no specific diet or supplementation that guarantees success in overcoming RIF, the science is certainly emerging on how this area could potentially improve fertility outcomes.
