Fertility Docs Uncensored is back with a deep dive into the endometrium—your uterine lining and a key player in fertility. Hosted by Dr. Carrie Bedient from the Fertility Center of Las Vegas, Dr. Susan Hudson from Texas Fertility Center, and Dr. Abby Eblen from Nashville Fertility Center, this episode answers listener questions and unpacks everything you need to know about this important tissue. The docs start with uterine artery embolization and how it can impact future pregnancies—touching on risks like decreased blood flow to the baby, stillbirth, and placenta increta. They also explore different endometrial biopsies (Receptiva, ALICE, EMMA, and ERA) and how they help evaluate the lining. Endometritis and polyps are also on the table: what they mean, how often they appear, and why treatment is often recommended.

You'll also hear about stimulation options using estrogen patches or FSH, the use of modified natural cycles, and the role of hormones like prolactin and thyroid in cycle length. Even weight changes can alter hormones and ovulation. Finally, the docs explain endometrial thickness and the relationship to frozen embryo transfer (FET) success rates.

Now WAIT—I know what you're thinking… finance is probably your least favorite “F” word too. But when it comes to family planning and fertility treatments, it's an important piece of the puzzle. We've talked about the emotional side of fertility struggles and IVF on the show before, but today we're pulling back the curtain on the financial reality. Because let's be honest—things like IVF, egg freezing, and other treatments can be really expensive. And to make matters more complicated, insurance doesn't always cover them. So what are we supposed to do? This week, Claire Tomkins, CEO & Founder of Future Family (and mom of three via IVF) joins the show. After six rounds of IVF (and over $100K) to conceive her first child, she became passionate about making fertility care more accessible and founded Future Family to help others navigate the process. In this episode, we cover: ✨ The real costs behind IVF, egg freezing, and other common fertility treatments ✨ Creative ways to make treatments more financially manageable ✨ The role of insurance and what to look out for in your benefits ✨ Claire's personal advice for anyone thinking about or currently going through the process If you or someone you love is exploring fertility treatments, this episode is a must-listen!

Have you been wondering whether high-risk HPV and having an abnormal pap smear could impact your ability to have a baby? In this episode, I'm going to talk about the link between high-risk HPV and fertility issues. I'm Dr. Doni Wilson, a Naturopathic Doctor and Certified Professional Midwife, as well as a Clinical Nutritionist. I've helped thousands of women with abnormal pap smears and high-risk HPV virus to help them prevent progression of abnormal cells, prevent cancer, and help them clear high-risk HPV to negative and keep it negative throughout their lives. I help a lot of women who are at the time in their life where they're hoping for a pregnancy. In fact, sometimes women have gone in to see the gynecologist for a pap smear because they're trying to get pregnant, and that's when they find out they are testing positive for high-risk HPV. For some women, it's once they are already pregnant and go in for a pap smear in early pregnancy, only to discover they're testing positive for high-risk HPV. I also help women who are peri and postmenopausal and dealing with HPV at that point in their lives as well. In this discussion, I want to focus on those of you who are thinking about pregnancy, or might already be pregnant, and are now dealing with high-risk HPV. I know that in the doctor's office, they're not likely to tell you that there is anything you can do. They're likely to tell you to just come back and get retested to see if the cells progressed or got worse, but they're not likely to tell you about any kind of diet changes, lifestyle changes, let alone nutrients, herbs, or other approaches that you can take to protect yourself from HPV and support your body's ability to clear the virus to negative. I'm here to help you!

Supplements become very expensive pee if you're not lowering your inflammation. Topics Discussed: Spirit babies and soul contracts in fertility journeys Outsourcing vs embodying personal empowerment Desperation, intuition, and fertility choices Radical honesty in healing and coaching Inflammation, nervous system health, and IVF readiness Why joy and self-worth are essential for conception If you're looking for a yes person, I'm not her—and that's exactly why my clients heal. Hello, Beautiful! Monica here, and today, Abigail and I are diving straight into the messy, magical, and often misunderstood world of spirit babies, soul contracts, and the radical honesty required on your fertility journey. This isn't a fluffy conversation about dates and genders—this is about the deeper layers of healing, the work that either sets you free or keeps you stuck in a desperate cycle of searching for answers outside yourself. I share real client stories that will make you rethink what “empowerment” actually looks like, from the woman who rewrote her soul contract and turned her health around, to the one who slipped into outsourcing her power and missed the point of her own growth. Abigail and I peel back the curtain on why people crave black-and-white answers, when the truth is found in the gray—in your daily choices, your willingness to do the work, and your courage to face radical honesty. At the end of the day, fertility isn't just about getting pregnant. It's about reclaiming your joy, dismantling old narratives, and refusing to let desperation dictate your path. If you've ever asked for a quick fix or begged for someone to give you the “right answer,” this episode is your reminder: the only magic lies in showing up for yourself. Press play and let's get real. The worst thing isn't not becoming a mom—it's losing yourself while trying. Timestamps: 01:49 Spirit babies, soul contracts, and stories about when spirit baby readings do more harm than good. 06:40 The IVF desperation and the real reason clients get stuck after intuitive readings. 12:00 We explain why you'll never get a sugar-coated yes from us or the answers you want to hear. 18:00 Why lack of joy is a major fertility block, plus learning how to show up authentically in your fertility journey. 23:10 Understanding that the ultimate goal of this fertility journey is to show up for yourself with or without kids. 30:17 What no one tells you about soul contracts and spirit babies' choices. 32:05 How to use readings for empowerment and without losing your own intuition. Stop outsourcing your empowerment—you are the only one who can do the work.

Hi friends! I have a brand new episode live and I'm SO excited for you to listen to my conversation with Monica Cox all about understanding fertility through the lens of cellular health, the role of diet and mindset, and the emotional healing that supports your journey to motherhood. Here's what we discuss: Why fertility is often a cellular health issue—and what that really means The powerful connection between diet, emotional patterns, and fertility outcomes How to spot red flags in common fertility advice and choose practices that truly serve you The importance of intuition, joy, and radical responsibility in your fertility journey Why age is not the final word on your fertility potential Plus, Monica's inspiring personal story of loss, resilience, and natural conception after years of infertility. Monica Cox is the woman midlife professionals call when they've blown $50,000+ on fertility treatments that failed them. Monica helps women who've "tried everything" finally understand what their body actually needs to get and stay pregnant-without burning themselves out with endless protocols, diets, and treatments. Monica is raw & honest about fertility struggles that 1 in 6 couples face. She helps professional women finally get pregnant by addressing what conventional medicine misses: the gut-fertility connection, cellular inflammation, and those subconscious blocks nobody's talking about. Monica's refreshing "no BS" approach and methodology transforms fertility from a clinical nightmare into an empowering journey. Women are desperate for alternatives that actually work-and Monica delivers them with the perfect mix of science, soul, and tough love that midlife women are searching for.

One of our dear listeners sent in this prompt: Episode idea: discussion of the growing movement among Protestants to entrust their fertility entirely to God (the quiver full movement), even sometimes in the presence of health issues, vs what is wise stewardship of our health if more pregnancies could endanger the life of the mother. I think I'm wording it badly, and it doesn't have to be an either or. I don't have a set position on either side, but I'd probably lean towards the "preserve the mother's health" side, in a prayerful Godly way.…and today we're discussing it!Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/alternatively-formerly-conspiracy-pilled--6248227/support.Follow our new Bible Study Channel - No Wrong Questions on YouTube!https://www.youtube.com/@NoWrongQuestionsSupport the show, access all of our episodes ad free, and get bonus OVERDOSE episodes on LOCALS - https://alternatively.locals.comMERCH - https://conspiracypilled.com/collections/all Join the DISCORD - https://discord.gg/c8Acuz7vC9 Give this podcast a 5 Star Review - https://ratethispodcast.com/conspiracypilled Middleborne Arms – https://middlebornearms.comBecause swords are awesome!North Arrow Coffee- https://northarrowcoffee.co Use code CONSPIRACY10 to get 10% off your order!

Fertility Docs Uncensored is hosted by Dr. Carrie Bedient from the Fertility Center of Las Vegas, Dr. Susan Hudson from Texas Fertility Center, and Dr. Abby Eblen from Nashville Fertility Center. In this episode, the Docs are joined by Nicole Marchetto, MD, a physician at Shady Grove Fertility Pennsylvania, Lancaster and Chesterbrook, to talk about a topic many patients quietly wonder about—when is it time to consider a second opinion?Seeking another perspective can feel intimidating, but Dr. Marchetto explains why most fertility doctors not only understand it but actually encourage it. A second opinion can help ensure that your treatment plan is appropriate—not outdated, not extreme, and not missing opportunities for success. Sometimes a fresh set of eyes leads to new approaches that your first doctor may not have considered.Far from being adversarial, second opinions often confirm that you're on the right path—or they may reveal alternative strategies that resonate more with your goals. If recommendations differ, it may be best to follow the physician whose plan makes the most sense to you, even if that means changing practices.Bottom line: your journey deserves the best possible care, and getting another perspective can be an empowering step. This podcast was sponsored by Shady Grove Fertility.
Every year the Kansas City Fed hosts the Jackson Hole symposium. All eyes are on the opening speech from Jerome Powell which was widely covered by the news media. To me, the more interesting talks are the invited speakers who give talks on various elements of the economy. The theme this year at Jackson Hole is demographics and the impact on the labor market. So this week we will be doing a mini series summarizing the most noteworthy talks from Jackson Hole this year. Some of these talks are considered boring by the news media and they don't get covered. But for those who seek to understand how the economy functions, these talks are very interesting. Our first one is focused on a talk by Claudia Goldin from Harvard University.-----------**Real Estate Espresso Podcast:** Spotify: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://open.spotify.com/show/3GvtwRmTq4r3es8cbw8jW0?si=c75ea506a6694ef1) iTunes: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-real-estate-espresso-podcast/id1340482613) Website: [www.victorjm.com](http://www.victorjm.com) LinkedIn: [Victor Menasce](http://www.linkedin.com/in/vmenasce) YouTube: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](http://www.youtube.com/@victorjmenasce6734) Facebook: [www.facebook.com/realestateespresso](http://www.facebook.com/realestateespresso) Email: [podcast@victorjm.com](mailto:podcast@victorjm.com) **Y Street Capital:** Website: [www.ystreetcapital.com](http://www.ystreetcapital.com) Facebook: [www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital](https://www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital) Instagram: [@ystreetcapital](http://www.instagram.com/ystreetcapital)
In this episode of The Wholesome Fertility Podcast, psychic, medium, and medical intuitive Julie Ryan (@askjulieryan) returns to share her extraordinary “buffet of psychicness.” Julie has a rare ability to scan the body, facilitate energetic healings, and connect with spirits, including those of future children. You'll hear a live fertility reading for one of my clients, where Julie uncovers energetic insights, identifies physical and emotional blocks, and even connects with two spirit babies waiting to join the family. We explore the body's innate ability to heal, the role of mindset and nervous system regulation in fertility, and how to navigate the often overwhelming medical side of the journey. Julie also teaches her simple yet powerful “Two-Minute Rule” for reducing stress instantly, shares her process for regenerating energetic blueprints, and reminds us that healing is always possible. Whether you're seeking answers, hope, or a deeper spiritual connection on your fertility path, this conversation offers both comfort and empowerment. Key Takeaways: The body has an innate ability to heal itself, healers and practitioners facilitate the process, but true healing comes from within. Spirit babies can attach to a mother's energy field long before conception, offering reassurance and hope on the fertility journey. Shifting out of fear and stress is crucial, as the body enters creation mode—not survival mode, when it feels safe and calm. The “Two-Minute Rule” is a simple tool to quickly identify irrational fears and keep stress and inflammation levels low. Energetic healing can address both physical and emotional blocks, supporting reproductive health alongside conventional care. Guest Bio: Julie Ryan is a psychic medium and medical intuitive with the ability to sense medical conditions, facilitate energetic healings, and communicate with spirits, both living and deceased. Known as a “buffet of psychicness™,” she can scan animals, access past lives, and even gauge how close someone is to passing. Julie is the author of Angelic Attendants and the Angel Messages® children's books, and hosts the popular Ask Julie Ryan show, heard in over 100 countries. A businesswoman, inventor, and serial entrepreneur, she has founded nine companies across five industries and holds patents for surgical devices sold worldwide.
