Send us a textIf you've ever struggled with infertility—or know someone who has—this episode will completely shift your perspective. Today, I'm joined by Monica Cox, Holistic Fertility Expert and founder of Finding Fertility, to dive deep into the often-missed root causes behind unexplained infertility.After eight long years of trying to conceive, being told it was “impossible,” and navigating failed IVF treatments, Monica discovered what conventional medicine had missed—and went on to heal her body naturally and conceive her children. Now she helps women worldwide uncover hidden roadblocks like poor cellular health, toxic load, chronic inflammation, emotional stress, and subconscious blocks that impact fertility and hormone balance.In this conversation, we discuss:•Monica's personal 8-year infertility journey—and what finally worked•Why normal fertility tests often miss the real problem•How cellular health, gut health, inflammation, and toxic load can disrupt fertility•The role of subconscious beliefs, perfectionism, and trauma in fertility struggles•How women over 35 (and in midlife) can optimize their hormones and fertility•Lifestyle shifts that support fertility without burnout•Why fertility is a vital sign for all women—not just those trying to conceive•How to better prepare the next generation for hormone and fertility healthWhether you're actively trying to conceive, planning for the future, or simply want to understand how to optimize your hormonal and cellular health — this episode is packed with hope, healing, and empowerment.Connect with Monica:

One of the hardest things to navigate when dealing with infertility is that – you don't know what you don't know.What are the questions you should be asking your doctor?What if treatments aren't successful – what happens then? Are there more tests you can do, and where do you go to get the answers?Being able to advocate for yourself when you feel lost & confused isn't something that comes easy to a lot of us.On today's episode we speak to a special guest who is going to walk you through how to do exactly that.By the time you finish listening, you'll find out: What is often missed in the western medical worldWhy standardized or "one size fits all" approaches are a problem How you can better advocate for yourself on this journeyYou can connect with Whitney via her:InstagramYouTubeWebsiteIf you would like to submit a question to the podcast, you can do so here!

When a nurse secretly pulled her aside and whispered "you need to see a naturopathic doctor," Katie's life changed forever. Despite being on track for traditional medical school and facing skepticism from peers who thought she was "too smart" to choose an alternative path, she followed her intuition into naturopathic medicine—the first time she felt truly seen in a healthcare setting.What started as a scientific approach to healing gradually expanded as Katie worked with fertility patients. Witnessing what seemed like miracles daily opened her to spiritual dimensions she hadn't previously acknowledged. The turning point came in 2020 when a patient's miscarriage affected her so deeply that she could barely function. This led her to explore spiritual connections to fertility and ultimately receive a profound message during meditation: "You are here to help the souls come through who wilJames Wedmore's Business by DesignBONUSES: https://www.sylviabeatriz.com/bbdWe just need 5 people to unlock the branding photoshoot with my husband Adam Hendershott!DEADLINE June 12th, 11:59PDT!Unlock my bonuses for Business by DesignBBD:

So excited and honored to get to interview My fertility doctor, Dr. Catha Fisher. She knows the ins and outs of my fertility journey well and is here to talk about all of it. We get into where we're at with my surrogacy process, and she shares her perspective as both my doctor and a compassionate witness to so many women's difficult journeys. We hear many stories of women navigating fertility challenges, but rarely do we hear the honest, emotional perspective of the doctors who walk alongside them through it all. I ask Dr. Fisher your questions, ones we were never taught to ask. When is the ideal time to freeze your eggs, at what point should you start looking into IVF, the real cost of IVF, the costs of surrogacy, unexplained fertility, and a lot more. Dr. Fisher shares what she remembers from working with me, and what every woman should know about her fertility, whether she's trying to conceive or simply thinking about the future. This is a topic that is obviously personal to me and so many others, and I appreciate Dr. Fisher for doing this so so much! My subscription service is now live!

Send us a textHow many eggs should you expect during IVF? Is 8 enough? Is 20 too many? In this episode of Taco Bout Fertility Tuesday, Dr. Mark Amols cracks open the real data behind egg retrieval numbers and answers the question everyone's asking: “Am I making enough eggs?”We break down what's normal by age, what counts as mature, and why having more eggs isn't always better. Learn how AMH, antral follicle count, and stimulation protocols impact your results—and why quality beats quantity every time. From global practices to your personal golden egg, we're setting realistic egg-spectations and busting fertility myths, one follicle at a time.Whether you're preparing for IVF or supporting someone who is, this episode brings the facts, the stats, and a few laughs to lighten the hormone-fueled ride.

In this insightful and informative episode of the pregnantish podcast, first airing in honor of National Infertility Awareness Week '25, we're joined by Dr. Karen Tang, a board-certified gynecologist and minimally invasive gynecologic surgeon and the author of "It's Not Hysteria: Everything You Need to Know About Your Reproductive Health (but Were Never Told)" From media stories to medical discussions, fertility and infertility is full of misconceptions! This episode delves into how and why we should shift the conversation from fear-based, negative messaging about reproductive health to one that's positive, empowering, and focused on achieving the reproductive goals people desire. This episode's Midroll features Dr. Lucky Sekhon, Board Certified OBGYN & Fertility Doctor who practices at RMA of NY, the episode sponsor, to tackle some of the more common myths and why sexual and reproductive health education needs a major overhaul. Both doctors in this conversation have used their platforms, including on social networks like Instagram and TikTok, to educate audiences and tackle misinformation. After all, in a recent pregnantish survey of over 800 people, we learned that social media is the #1 way people today access fertility information and education. With 1 in 6 facing infertility and 1 in 4 navigating pregnancy loss today, there's nothing niche about this topic. This episode is a celebration of breaking down barriers, busting myths and encouraging people to take control of their fertility so they can best advocate for their health. Thank you to episode sponsor RMA of New York, a global leader in reproductive medicine who is partnered with US Fertility and its network of premier reproductive medicine practices.

Send us a textWhen it comes to fertility, timing is everything. In this episode of Taco Bout Fertility Tuesday, Dr. Mark Amols breaks down the "window of opportunity"—the crucial period where certain fertility treatments are most effective.Using football analogies, Dr. Amols explains why some treatments, like IUI, can be done at almost any age, while others, like IVF, require a stronger ovarian reserve and should be pursued earlier. He also dives into family-building strategy, showing why those who want multiple children may need to think ahead and bank embryos early rather than waiting until options become limited.This episode covers:

I'm so excited to have Dr. Bruce Lessey of ReceptivaDX join me on the podcast. Dr. Lessey has dedicated his research life to studying the lining of the uterus and more specifically, how to help embryos stick better. His research led to the discovery of the role of BCL-6 in the lining of the uterus as a diagnostic test patients can have done by their doctors to guide them toward the best protocol for transfer success. The test isn't for women just going through IVF either. This test can also be done to help women get an endometriosis diagnosis without going through a laparoscopy surgery. ⁠ ⠀ ⠀⁠ In addition to being a Fertility Doctor at The Fertility Center of the Carolinas, in Greenville SC, Dr. Lessey is also the scientific advisor for Cicero DX. His work on identifying BLC6 became the key component of the Receptivadx test. ⁠ ⠀ ⠀⁠ I'm delighted to have him on the show! Many IVF patients have benefited greatly from the Receptivadx test, and I'm looking forward to asking him a lot of questions about his work. ⁠ Read the full show notes and transcript on Dr. Aimee's website Find out more about ReceptivaDX here: https://receptivadx.com/ Would you like to learn more about IVF?Click here to join Dr. Aimee for The IVF Class.

I know there are hands going up everywhere right now - in cars, in kitchens, on morning walks, in offices. Maybe you've been trying for months – or years – with no success. Maybe you got pregnant easily before, and now you're facing loss after loss. Or maybe you're just starting out, and nothing is working the way you thought it would.Here's what's wild – about one in six couples struggles with fertility. That's way more common than most people think. But you know what? That number doesn't tell the whole story. It doesn't show the nights you've cried yourself to sleep, or how hard it is to scroll through social media seeing pregnancy announcement after pregnancy announcement. Let me tell you something I've learned the hard way – your body doesn't care if you've had easy pregnancies before. It doesn't care about your perfect timing or your vision board or your five-year plan. Some of us struggle for years to see that first positive test. Others, like me, get blindsided by loss after things have been easy. Some of us dive deep into fertility treatments, while others keep hearing those frustrating words: "unexplained infertility."But here's the truth – and I want you to really hear this – there's no competition in this pain.

Hello, beautiful! I'm so glad you're here for this week's episode of The "So Now What?" Podcast.  If you're watching on YouTube, you'll notice I'm in a different setting than usual. I'm currently in Denver, attending the American Society of Reproductive Medicine  (ASRM) Annual Congress. This episode might sound a bit different, but it's coming straight from the heart, and I think it's one you'll connect with if you've been searching for recognition after leaving IVF or fertility treatments without the child you dreamed of. In this episode, I share a deeply personal story about reuniting with my reproductive endocrinologist after six years of wondering what I'd say if we ever crossed paths again. This was the doctor who, back in 2018, told me my only frozen embryo wasn't viable for implantation. It was a moment that shifted everything for me and my journey to motherhood. If you've ever felt like you were left to figure out life on your own after fertility treatments, this episode is for you. I talk about what it was like to finally speak with him face-to-face and express gratitude for his efforts, even though the outcome wasn't what I'd hoped for. It was also an opportunity to tell him how I've moved forward—leaving my corporate career, becoming a life coach, and now dedicating myself to helping women like you who are navigating life after IVF. As you listen, I want you to think about what you would say if you ever had the chance to speak to your own Reproductive Endocrinologist (RE) or fertility team again. What would you want them to know about where you are today? Whether or not you ever get that chance, it's important to acknowledge yourself for how far you've come and the life you're creating, even though it looks different than what you envisioned. After the episode, I encourage you to take a few minutes to write down what your conversation would look like. It's a powerful exercise in recognizing your strength, resilience, and everything you've achieved since your fertility journey ended. And if you're still feeling unsure about what's next, I'm here to help. Book a free Thrive Call with me, and together, we'll create a plan for how you can move forward feeling fulfilled, even without the children you hoped for. It's time to thrive again, and I'm here to walk that path with you. Key Takeaways: You're not alone in feeling left behind after fertility treatments. It's a common experience to feel lost without the support and guidance you once had. Think about what closure looks like for you. Even if you never speak to your RE again, you can still acknowledge what you've accomplished since that part of your life ended. Your story is yours to create. The narrative around living without children doesn't have to be one of loss or sadness. You have the power to rewrite your story into something beautiful and fulfilling.

What You Need To Know About Age + Fertility. Blissfully in love, thriving in pursuit of becoming a naturopathic doctor and healthy on a cellular level. Yet here we are, having tough conversations about starting a family. Let me tell you friends, those beautiful gifts you prayed for; chances are, you're living them out in this very moment and missing every single one. We often build our lives around "someday," which leads to a town called "nowhere." Today, I share with you another appointment of tears, confusion, and prayers on what to do next. Often, we shut down and isolate ourselves when life gets tough, but I am choosing to do the opposite. I seek to remain open, vulnerable, and honest about what my critical levels mean for me and my future family. I love you, thanks for sticking with me. Please know you are NOT ALONE in anything you are going through.References: Dr Natalie Crawford

I'm so excited to have Dr. Bruce Lessey of ReceptivaDX join me on the podcast. Dr. Lessey has dedicated his research life to studying the lining of the uterus and more specifically, how to help embryos stick better. His research led to the discovery of the role of BCL-6 in the lining of the uterus as a diagnostic test patients can have done by their doctors to guide them toward the best protocol for transfer success. The test isn't for women just going through IVF either. This test can also be done to help women get an endometriosis diagnosis without going through a laparoscopy surgery. ⁠ ⠀ ⠀⁠ In addition to being a Fertility Doctor at The Fertility Center of the Carolinas, in Greenville SC, Dr. Lessey is also the scientific advisor for Cicero DX. His work on identifying BLC6 became the key component of the Receptivadx test. ⁠ ⠀ ⠀⁠ I'm delighted to have him on the show! Many IVF patients have benefited greatly from the Receptivadx test, and I'm looking forward to asking him a lot of questions about his work. ⁠ Read the full show notes and transcript on Dr. Aimee's website Find out more about ReceptivaDX here: https://receptivadx.com/ Would you like to learn more about IVF?Click here to join Dr. Aimee for The IVF Class.

September is Urology Awareness Month, which is quite necessary considering there are less than four hundred practicing Reproductive Urologists in the United States. This episode serves as an opportunity to understand the intense training it takes to become a Reproductive Urologist (RU), what role they play in men's health and reproductive health, as well as how they work in conjunction with Reproductive Endocrinologists.    In today's episode, Progyny's Chief Medical Officer and Reproductive Endocrinologist, Dr. Janet Choi gives insight into the role of RUs and how they differ from Reproductive Endocrinologists (REIs).  Dr. Choi expands on her own position as an REI; what kind of training she received, who she treats, and how male patients can benefit from seeing an RU if they are already seeing an REI.    Video mentioned in this episode: Reproductive Urologists Can Help Men with Infertility         Guest: Dr. Janet Choi, Chief Medical Officer at Progyny     Host: Dan Bulger, Progyny     For more information, visit Progyny's Podcast page and Progyny's Education page for more resources.

Sasha Hakman is not only a fertility doctor, she is a fertility patient, and today we are talking about ALL OF IT. In her podcast debut, Sasha (formerly known on IG as Dr. Fierce) talks about why female physicians have a greater percentage of infertility, and how that specifically affected her when she went through her OBGYN residency for four years, and then her REI fellowship for an additional three years. She talks about thinking about freezing her eggs, how she met her now-husband and why she decided to freeze embryos instead, and how, as a doctor, she was able to look at her husband's sperm under a microscope. She talks about "super ovulating," being "reckless" with her med doses, why she didn't do PGT testing, why SCH are more common in IVF pregnancies, and what it felt like to finally have her son. She also talks about exercise during TTC -- and why she is so passionate about it.  Follow her on IG at @sashahakmanmd for more.

BCL6 is found in more than 50% of women with unexplained infertility and over 65% of women with two or more IVF failures. If positive for the ReceptivaDx test, treatment options can improve the chances for a successful live birth 5 fold!

Imagine longing to have a baby. Trying to conceive for years and years. Or maybe suffering through miscarriage after miscarriage. Or knowing you or your partner have a genetic defect in your DNA that would cause a child painful suffering, hospitalizations or even an early death. These reasons — and many more — lead individuals and couples to seek the help of an infertility doctor.But what if that doctor was devious? What if he didn't exactly follow your wishes….AND YOU HAD NO IDEA YOU EVEN had to be so explicit in your directions …Because there aren't national or international laws that necessarily STATE WHAT THIS MAN DID WAS ILLEGAL or laws protecting against the inconceivable actions he took on the womb of unsuspecting mothers — but the story of Dr. Donald Cline's deceit would come to light and his nearly 100 children would come back to haunt him.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
