Today's episode is a really special one because Ali is sitting down with three of her favorite people in the world: Helen, Aaron, and Blake—the real-life family behind her “Work of ART” children's book, Beautiful Bird.If you've read the book, then you already know a little bit about Jack Bird, the incredible boy at the center of the story. And today, you're going to hear the real origin story. This is a conversation about love, friendship, family building, and creating a family that looks different than what many of us grew up seeing—but is every bit as beautiful. Helen always knew she wanted to be a mom, and as a solo mom by choice, she embarked on a journey to build her family with the help of her dear friend Aaron. At the time, Aaron was building a life with his partner, Blake, and together, the three of them created a beautiful, intentional village around Jack from the very beginning.Ali, Helen, Blake and Aaron talk about fertility treatments, donor conception, LGBTQ+ family building, and what it means to redefine family in a way that puts love, honesty, and a child's well-being first. They also talk about one of the most difficult chapters of their journey: Jack's unexpected 33-day stay in the NICU after he was born, and how that experience shaped all of them as parents and as a family. Most of all, this is a story about showing up for one another. It's about friendship becoming family, about creating your own blueprint, and about the many different ways people can build a loving home.Snag a copy of Beautiful Bird for just $15 here: https://www.infertileafgroup.com/booksEPISODE SPONSORS: THE WORK OF ART BOOK SERIESAli's Children's Book Series about IVF, IUI and Family Building Through Assisted Reproductive Technology https://www.infertileafgroup.com/booksThe 3-book bundle is now just $49 (normally $79)!The latest book in the Work of ART series, “You Are a Work of ART," is for every kiddo born through ART -- and the people who love them.PHERDALIG: @pherdal_sciencePherDal is the world's first and only FDA-cleared, sterile, at-home insemination kit designed to help people build their families in the comfort of home.

Rapamycin is changing what's possible in fertility treatment, and in this episode, I'm breaking down exactly how. Originally discovered in the soil of Easter Island and long used by the longevity community to extend healthspan, rapamycin is now showing real promise for improving egg quality, increasing blastocyst formation rates, and helping women over 40 (even over 45) get pregnant.  Joining me is Dr. Steve Palter, founder and medical and scientific director of Gold Coast IVF in Woodbury, New York. We cover the science of how it works at the cellular level, the landmark placebo-controlled trial out of China that gave us published data for the first time, my own case series accepted to PCRS, and how I'm now using Rapamycin for egg freezing patients, not just last-resort IVF cases. We also get discuss the Vibrant Trial on ovarian aging, dosing protocols, and why resistance training and protein intake matter for fertility and longevity.  In this episode, we cover: • What rapamycin is, where it comes from, and why it's become the darling of the longevity world • How rapamycin may improve egg quality by regulating protein synthesis and cellular repair in aging ovarian cells • The landmark placebo-controlled trial out of China showing significantly higher pregnancy rates in poor-prognosis patients • My own case series (including patients over 45 getting pregnant) accepted to PCRS • Who is (and isn't) a good candidate, and how to have that conversation with your doctor • Why dosing protocols are still evolving and what current regimens look like • The underrated role of resistance training and protein intake for fertility, PCOS, and longevity Read the full show notes, and find the full length episode here.

Send us Fan MailProgesterone-in-oil shots, also known as PIO shots, are one of the most feared and hated parts of IVF. They are uncomfortable, intimidating, and often leave patients wondering: “Do I really need this, or is my fertility doctor just being cruel?”In this episode of Taco Bout Fertility Tuesday, Dr. Mark Amols explains why progesterone matters for implantation, how estrogen and progesterone work together to prepare the uterine lining, and why the type of embryo transfer cycle changes everything.The key question is not simply whether progesterone shots are better than vaginal progesterone. The real question is whether your body is making progesterone on its own.Dr. Amols breaks down the difference between ovulatory or modified natural frozen embryo transfers and programmed frozen embryo transfers. In an ovulatory cycle, the body forms a corpus luteum and produces progesterone naturally. In a programmed cycle, there is no ovulation, no corpus luteum, and therefore no natural progesterone production — meaning all progesterone support must come from medication.This episode also reviews the research comparing daily progesterone-in-oil shots, vaginal progesterone alone, and combination protocols using vaginal progesterone plus intermittent PIO injections. The data shows why vaginal progesterone alone may not be enough in programmed frozen embryo transfer cycles and why many clinics still rely on PIO for reliable progesterone support.Dr. Amols also discusses progesterone blood levels, why levels can be hard to interpret with vaginal progesterone, why clinics may differ in their protocols, and how some patients may be candidates for fewer injections or modified natural cycles.If you are preparing for an embryo transfer, taking progesterone, or wondering why your clinic recommends PIO shots, this episode will help you understand the science behind the shot — and hopefully hate your doctor a little less.The bottom line: fertility doctors are not sadists. Progesterone-in-oil may be a literal pain in the butt, but in some embryo transfer cycles, it has an important purpose.Thanks for tuning in to another episode of 'Taco Bout Fertility Tuesday' with Dr. Mark Amols.

Why are women's bodies impacted by heat differently to men's? What can women do to cool down? Nuala McGovern is joined by GP Dr Amir Khan, Alyx Gorman, lifestyle editor of Guardian Australia, who shares how women are coping with increasingly extreme temperatures, and the practical strategies they're using to keep safe and comfortable.A new study has found that the majority of IVF add-ons assessed either show no effect on fertility or remain inconclusive due to limited or low-quality data. Nuala speaks to author of the study Dr Sarah Lensen from the University of Melbourne, broadcaster Hannah Vaughan Jones who went through 15 rounds of IVF and Professor Tim Child from the UK IVF regulator, the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority (HFEA). Sandy Powell has won three Oscars and is the most BAFTA nominated costume designer of all time for her work on iconic films including Shakespeare in Love, Gangs of New York, Mary Poppins Returns and The Favourite.

She tells Nuala about this new course, and what the role of a costume designer involves.Rukky Brume grew up in Lagos, Nigeria. Her debut novel, It Comes in Waves, follows Onome, a law student in London whose father dies suddenly in Nigeria. Returning home for his funeral, she learns a secret that reveals there was far more to him than she knew. In 2021, her writing was longlisted for the Women's Prize Trust's Discoveries programme. She joins Nuala to discuss grief, loss and belonging and combining writing alongside a legal career.Presenter: Nuala McGovern Producer: Dianne McGregor

She opens up about the heartbreaking decisions her family faced, the challenges of balancing grief while caring for her surviving son, and how loss continues to shape her motherhood journey.We also discuss coping with grief, mental health after infant loss, navigating loss and grief while parenting, finding support after tragedy, and the unique experience of loving a child in your arms while mourning the child who should be beside them.If you are navigating infertility, infant loss, twin loss, parenting after loss, or searching for hope while living with grief, this conversation offers an honest reminder that you are not alone.

Many people with infertility use in vitro fertilisation (IVF), however the probability of having a baby following IVF is only approximately 30-40% per cycle and decreases significantly with age. It can be a lengthy and expensive process. Providers sometimes offer ‘add-ons', additional treatments that they claim could help patients conceive, which are themselves also usually expensive. In Australia, New Zealand and the United Kingdom more than 70% of patients pay for at least one of these add-ons. A new review published in The Lancet Obstetrics, Gynaecology, & Women's Health journal has found that evidence on the benefits of these add-on treatments is unclear. Claudia Hammond speaks to Dr Sarah Lensen, Senior Research Fellow in the Department of Obstetrics, Gynaecology and Newborn Health at the University of Melbourne.Joining Claudia from Ghana is genito-urinary consultant and HIV expert, Vanessa Apea. Claudia and Vanessa discuss a draft African Charter on Family, Sovereignty and Values, which claims that comprehensive sex education, as well as a range of sexual and reproductive health rights, are a threat to African families from foreign ideologies.They also discuss a report from the Office of Inspector General of US Agency for International Development (USAID) which reveals that President Donald Trump's administration has spent hundreds of thousands of dollars in storage and transportation costs for $9.7 million worth of contraceptives that are being stored in Belgium rather than distributed to the various low-income countries they were intended for. Many of the withheld contraceptives are now expired or unusable due to their removal from temperature-controlled storage.We also hear from Health Check reporter Jane Chambers in the Chilean city of Valdivia, where wetlands are part of everyday life—and increasingly, part of people's health. And we hear how faecal-microbiome transplants could improve the efficacy of some antidepressants in patients with major depressive disorder.Presenter: Claudia Hammond Producers: Jonathan Blackwell & Georgia Christie

This conversation is so important I stole it from Lori's podcast. Lori sat down with our new business partner Stephanie Gambetta to break down how peptides and GLP-1s can support weight loss, healing, recovery, and overall wellness when used the right way. They talk about what peptides actually are, how they work in the body, and why so many women hit a point where their old routines just aren't cutting it anymore. They also share why so many women feel disconnected from their bodies in their late 30s, 40s, and beyond, and what can happen when stress, hormones, and overtraining start working against you. This is something I know both men and women can relate to. Tune in for a fresh perspective on what it actually takes to feel good in your body again.   HIGHLIGHTS 00:00 Why so many women feel like their best years are behind them. 08:45 How peptides help support healing, reduce inflammation, and improve recovery. 14:00 Lori's fertility journey, IVF setbacks, and the moment she knew she needed help. 19:15 What can go wrong when you start a GLP-1 too high or too fast? 23:30 Why the workouts and eating habits that used to work may stop working as you age. 26:45 How a personalized approach helps you get better results from peptides. 31:30 How peptides can support your body, but won't replace the basics. 37:15 The downside of overtraining and being too rigid with food and fitness. 39:15 What it looks like to feel more freedom around your body, food, and routine. 43:45 What are peptides and how do they work in the body? 48:00 What Lori and Stephanie will break down next in their peptide series.   RESOURCES Curious about peptides and GLP-1s?

This was not a normal bad week. This was the week a bunch of people who spent years pretending the emperor had clothes all looked up at the same time and went, oh no.We open where the country opened: a rotting reflecting pool. A no-bid, $14.5 million renovation that bloomed bright green algae and peeled its custom "American Flag Blue" paint into the water, fixed with hydrogen peroxide that made it worse, then sold to the public as sabotage. Box cutters. A 350-foot slit that grew sixty feet mid-sentence. Five arrests over a pond.From there it only gets worse for him. Three federal courts ruled against this administration in a single Monday, on voter data, food assistance, and the retaliatory subpoenas aimed at Tim Walz, where a Bush-appointed judge used the word "risible." JD Vance flew to Switzerland to sell an Iran deal and got fact-checked and snubbed by Iran in real time. An Israeli cabinet minister told a country of six million to burn, and a platform called it a public service. Tucker Carlson quit the Republican Party. The Senate openly turned on him. Ken Paxton discovered he loves IVF the same week his own party voted to ban it. And Tulsi Gabbard cleaned out her desk by lobbing one more pre-pardoned Fauci grenade on the way out.Every story this week is the same story. Botch something, refuse to own it, invent an enemy, point the state at whoever's standing closest. We connect the dots, name the systems, and separate what's confirmed from what's spin.I'm Robin. This is We Saw the Devil. Go read the ruling. Page one, it's laughable.Keywords: political comedy podcast, political commentary, news comedy, leftist podcast, progressive podcast, Trump reflecting pool, Lincoln Memorial algae, Trump meltdown, SAVE voter purge, noncitizen voting, Tim Walz subpoenas, JD Vance Iran, Ben Gvir Lebanon, Tucker Carlson quits, Ken Paxton IVF, Texas IVF ban, Tulsi Gabbard Fauci, James Comer, SNAP MAHA, Senate Republicans, current events 2026, We Saw the Devil, Robin ColemanBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/we-saw-the-devil-unfiltered-political-analysis--4433638/support.Website: http://www.wesawthedevil.comPatreon: http://www.patreon.com/wesawthedevilDiscord: https://discord.gg/X2qYXdB4Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/WeSawtheDevilInstagram: http://www.instagram.com/wesawthedevilpodcast.

 Fertility Docs Uncensored Today's episode of 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, Understanding Decreased Ovarian Reserve, the doctors take a deep dive into what decreased ovarian reserve means and how it can impact fertility treatment and family-building decisions. The episode begins with a discussion of how ovarian reserve is evaluated and why several different tests are used together to provide a more complete picture. The docs explain the roles of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH), estradiol levels, anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH), and antral follicle count (AFC), and how these factors interact in assessing a woman's remaining egg supply. The hosts then define decreased ovarian reserve and discuss factors that may increase a woman's risk, including smoking, prior chemotherapy exposure, and inherited conditions such as Fragile X premutation's. The conversation also focuses on treatment options and why fertility specialists often recommend a more proactive approach for patients with decreased ovarian reserve. The doctors explain that a lower egg count does not always mean poor egg quality, particularly in younger women, but it can mean that time is an important factor. They review treatment strategies ranging from ovulation induction and intrauterine insemination (IUI) to in vitro fertilization (IVF), and discuss realistic expectations for IVF outcomes. While patients with decreased ovarian reserve may produce fewer eggs during treatment, many can still achieve successful pregnancies with appropriate care and individualized treatment plans. This episode is sponsored by IVF Florida. 

As Christians, we need to stay informed about the rapidly changing world of fertility treatments, genetic testing, and IVF before making decisions or forming opinions. Join C.L. as we explore the powerful story behind the Boozer family, wrestle with difficult questions about life, embryos, technology, and God's will, and seek biblical wisdom for navigating one of the most important ethical conversations of our time.

Anne reveals how she became a fan of Dr. Aimee's holistic and patient-centric approach rooted in the TUSHY method, which stands for Testing: Tubes, Uterus, Sperm, Hormones, and Your genetics. They delve into the inadequacies of common fertility treatments, the importance of comprehensive diagnostic tests, and the role of acupuncture. They also discuss the implications of factors such as polyps, DNA fragmentation in sperm, and the significance of quality embryo grading. Dr. Aimee emphasizes the importance of personalized patient care, thorough diagnoses, and being emotionally and physically prepared for pregnancy, reflecting on her own motivations for specializing in fertility treatments. The conversation also covers the roles of psychological support, supplementation, and the evolving landscape of egg freezing and IVF.

In this episode of Dismantling You, I sit down with Dr. Drew Tortoriello, Medical Director at Sher Fertility, to demystify one of the most misunderstood options in reproductive medicine: intrauterine insemination (IUI). We dig into why IUI is often the right first step for couples facing unexplained infertility, how a thoughtful, non-aggressive approach can lead to better outcomes, and why knowing your numbers matters long before you ever think you'll need a fertility specialist. Dr. Tortoriello brings both deep clinical expertise and a refreshing honesty about the limits of medicine, reminding us that even the best science cannot guarantee outcomes.We also explore what proactive reproductive health really looks like in your 20s and 30s, the role of egg freezing as a hedge against future infertility, and why stress alone does not cause infertility (despite what the headlines say). Dr. Tortoriello shares his perspective on the emotional grieving process so many couples experience, the importance of patient education, and what genuine self-care looks like for a physician at the top of his field. Whether you're actively trying to conceive, planning ahead, or simply curious about what reproductive endocrinology really involves, this conversation will give you a clearer, calmer framework for understanding your options.Key Highlights

You were told to try again. Maybe you were told it was bad luck, or to wait until it happened a third time before anyone would look. Here is what changed this year. In 2026, the American Society for Reproductive Medicine updated its definition of recurrent pregnancy loss for the first time since 2012. Two losses now meet the definition, not three, and a positive test that ended early counts. The old number kept women waiting for a third loss before the investigation even started. Here is the part no one tells you. Meeting the definition gets you a workup. It does not guarantee the workup is complete. After two or more losses, up to half of couples are told the same word. Unexplained. The losses are real. What gets called a complete workup is the question. This episode is the 9 specific things we most often find that are rarely checked before a woman is told her losses were unexplained or simply bad luck. Pull it up. Take notes. Bring it to your next appointment. The 9 patterns: Thyroid, the full panel and antibodies, not just TSH Antiphospholipid antibodies, tested correctly Chronic endometritis The reproductive microbiome, vaginal and seminal The gut, hidden gluten, and inflammation Sperm DNA fragmentation The male partner's full bloodwork Blood sugar and metabolic patterns The nervous system and progesterone These are the areas that sit outside a standard miscarriage workup. A 2012 meta-analysis in Human Reproduction, pooling sixteen studies and nearly three thousand couples, found miscarriage rates rose with sperm DNA damage, with about twice the relative risk. Unexplained rarely means there is nothing to find. It usually means the search stopped at the karyotype, one antiphospholipid test, the anatomy, and a TSH.

It's a Father's Day baby - delivered by dad himself! When his wife went into labor, there was no time to get to the hospital. All of a sudden, the driveway became the delivery room! Alison Hall has the story of a Father's Day one family will never forget. And a woman's amazing survival story — this one involves a hungry black bear. It messed with the wrong person. She pulled out her pistol to fight back. Couples struggling to conceive often turn to IVF as they try to have a baby, but it led to a nightmare for one couple after she was implanted with the wrong embryo. As Ann Mercogliano reports, they have decided to keep the baby. The news comes as the baby's biological parents, through their lawyer, speak out. Drama continues over the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool on the National Mall. Green algae continues to bloom despite a major $16 million renovation, and the pool liner is peeling off. Without any evidence, President Trump believes it's sabotage and vows to clean the water in time for the July 4th celebrations, saying he's ready to drain the pool and start over. Justin Finch is there.

Lisa Oxenham is a mum to Eliza who's 10 and to Wolfgang who's nine and a half months old. She started out as beauty editor at More magazine and then worked for Marie Claire magazine for 20 years concentrating on beauty and, later, on wellness too.Lisa became a mum for the second time at the age of 50 and she now has her own YouTube channel concentrating on wellness and motherhood.She told me how she hit fertility problems in her 40s but her determination to have a sibling for Eliza meant she continued with her IVF journey through her 40s, and eventually had her much-longed for son Wolfgang as she entered her 50s. She told me how she's experienced trolls telling her she's too old to be a new mum, and will be too tired to bring up her baby, but she says she's never had so much energy - or confidence - in her life before.Lisa certainly radiates joy in her new motherhood - and fittingly baby Wolfgang refused to be parted from her for this interview. So please excuse the background noises in this chat, as he explores the nooks and crannies of my living room during the recording!

The mental and emotional weight of trying to conceive doesn't disappear once you're pregnant, or once the baby arrives. For many women, it quietly shapes everything that comes after.Sometimes the hardest part isn't the fertility treatment itself. It's carrying the aftermath of it into motherhood without anyone acknowledging that you went through something significant to get there.In this episode of The Science of Motherhood, Dr Renee White sits down with Dr Edna Lekgabe, certified perinatal and reproductive psychiatrist practising in Melbourne, to explore the mental health dimensions of the trying to conceive journey. They cover the difference between normal anxiety and clinical anxiety, how IVF trauma shows up in the body long after treatment ends, and why perinatal mental health challenges are never a personal failing.This is the final episode of the six-part Trying to Conceive series on The Science of Motherhood.In this episode, you'll hear about:Why what you're feeling is a nervous system response, not a character flawHow to recognise when anxiety has moved from visitor to renovationWhat IVF trauma looks like in the body and why it often goes unidentifiedHow medication decisions are made with a risk-versus-risk frameworkWhy reaching out early makes a differenceYour mental health through this journey is part of the journey. It deserves the same attention as everything else. There is support available, and you deserve to use it.If this resonates, share it with someone who needs to hear it.

Send us Fan MailA baby asks for “mama,” and two adults laugh back, “There is no mama.” That short viral moment is heartbreaking on the surface, but we think it also reveals something deeper about the way modern culture talks about same-sex marriage, commercial surrogacy, and what counts as a family.I'm joined by my daughter Hannah as we slow down and look past the news cycle. We start with why the video felt so evil to so many people, not only because it provokes a child to tears, but because it treats a child's mother as optional. From there we revisit a question some people warned about years ago after Obergefell: what about the children? We talk plainly about how no “private” adult choice stays private once a child is involved, and why children's rights must come before adult agendas.We also bring in the child development and sociology side. We outline what social scientists commonly acknowledge about socioemotional health: biology matters, gender differences matter, and parental loss is harmful whether it comes through divorce, abandonment, death, adoption, IVF, or third party reproduction. We challenge the slogan “love is enough,” discuss why some studies are methodologically weak, and point listeners to research associated with Paul Sullins and Mark Regnerus. Finally, we share testimony from adult children and stories drawn from Katie Faust's Them Before Us, where “father mother hunger” shows up again and again.If you care about faith, family, and the real-world impact of marriage and reproductive technology on kids, listen through to the end, then subscribe, share this with a friend, and leave a review so more people can find the show.Support the showhttps://www.jacksonfamilyministry.comhttps://bobslone.com/home/podcast-production/

Katy Schnitzler returns to The Full Stop five years on — now fresh off submitting her PhD — to dig into one of the thorniest workplace issues for people who are childless not by choice: holidays, leave, and boundaries. The conversation moves from the personal (the strange non-celebration of finishing a PhD, the "full stop" feeling of an ending without ceremony) into the structural: school-holiday leave bias, rota and shift unfairness, "informal favours" for parents, and the particular pressures faced by teachers, midwives and nurses who are childless. Katy shares findings from her doctoral research and her Pronatalism at Work project, and the group works through practical, non-judgemental ways organisations can make leave, language and culture fairer for everyone, without taking anything away from parents. We're talking about ... Holiday and school-term leave bias against childless employees "Informal favours," rota unfairness and the assumption that childless staff have nothing to rush home for Teaching, midwifery and nursing as flashpoints for childless professionals Ambiguous and disenfranchised grief — why childlessness grief isn't always recognised, even by therapists Pronatalism in the workplace: baby showers, scan photos, "doing it for the kids" culture The intersection of childlessness with disability, chronic illness, singleness and bereavement Practical, low-cost fixes: transparent leave/booking systems, anonymous feedback, external training, first-come-first-served leave policies Takeaways Holidays are emotionally loaded for people without children — naming that openly (without banning the topic) helps everyone. "Gentle challenge" responses ("that's not always how it feels") put the work back on the person making assumptions, not the person experiencing them. Transparent, first-come-first-served leave systems can remove parental status from the equation entirely. Anonymous feedback on workload and leave can surface disparities before they become resentment. External, MIST training takes the emotional load off the person going through it — they don't have to "out" themselves to get change. This isn't bashing parents. It's about making space at the table for everyone's story. Guest Katy Schnitzler — academic and corporate trainer specialising in reproductive health and childlessness (pregnancy loss, infertility, menstrual health, menopause).

On this episode, we're talking about something that affects millions of fertility patients—but that almost nobody talks about until the bill shows up: reproductive tissue storage.If you have embryos, eggs, or sperm in storage, you know the drill. Every year, another invoice arrives. Maybe it's $600. Maybe it's $800. Maybe it's over $1,000. Most people just pay it because they assume that's the cost. But what if it isn't? Ali's guest today is Charlie Boyer, CEO and Co-Founder of Generations CryoVault, and he's on a mission to shake up an industry that he believes has gotten way too comfortable charging fertility patients more and more for storage. Charlie's background is actually in financial services and cord blood storage, but after taking a closer look at reproductive tissue storage, he started asking some uncomfortable questions: Why are prices so high? Why don't patients know they have options? And why are so many clinics owned by private equity firms without patients even realizing it? In this conversation, Ali and Charlie talk about transparency, private equity, patient choice, and Generation CryoVault's new Pricing Promise, which aims to dramatically lower the cost of long-term embryo, egg, and sperm storage. They also discuss whoownsyourcare.org, how to find out who actually stores your tissue, and what questions every fertility patient should be asking their clinic. Whether you have embryos in storage right now, you're considering fertility treatment, or you're just curious about where all those fertility dollars are going, this is a fascinating conversation about an often-overlooked part of the family-building journey.For more info, go to https://gencryo.com/IG: @generationscryovaultEPISODE SPONSORS: THE WORK OF ART BOOK SERIESAli's Children's Book Series about IVF, IUI and Family Building Through Assisted Reproductive Technology https://www.infertileafgroup.com/booksThe 3-book bundle is now just $49 (normally $79)!The latest book in the Work of ART series, “You Are a Work of ART," is for every kiddo born through ART -- and the people who love them.PHERDALIG: @pherdal_sciencePherDal is the world's first and only FDA-cleared, sterile, at-home insemination kit designed to help people build their families in the comfort of home.

When you're pregnant after IVF, you're likely beaming with joy while at the same time trying to keep negative, worrisome thoughts in check.  If you're like so many of the fertility patients I see, then you may be hyper-aware of your body, emotions and sensitive to the what-ifs of pregnancy after fertility treatment.  Now you're pregnant, and yes, you may have dreamed of this moment for quite some time. But it's okay not to love every second of being pregnant. You are not alone!  And you do not have to manage these feelings by yourself or with the help of Google (In fact, please make a pact with me right now that you'll do your best to avoid Google). Save yourself the heartache and talk to me, your OBGYN or tune into today's podcast episode where I'm sharing all about what to expect, and how to navigate the first few months of being pregnant after IVF.

We're not talking about treating, we're talking about healing and there's no better person to talk about this than Dr. Dylan. As a PCOS / PMOS Wellness Consultant, Dr. Cutler focuses her work on nutrition , lifestyle changes, and meditation. She encourages patients to add more stress management to their routine, to get exercise, and to get away from the diet culture mentality that so many people with PCOS / PMOS have been conditioned into.

WATCH ON YOUTUBE HERE. Have you ever looked at your HTMA results and thought: "Okay... but what does any of this actually mean?" If so, today's episode is for you. I'm joined by women's health dietitian and HTMA expert Amanda Montalvo for a deep dive into one of our favorite parts of the Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis test: significant ratios. Inside Nourished Fertility, HTMAs have completely transformed how we support women with period loss, fertility struggles, thyroid symptoms, and hormone imbalances. These tests allow us to see deeper than standard blood work and understand how stress, metabolism, nervous system function, thyroid health, and mineral status are impacting your fertility journey. In this conversation, Amanda breaks down exactly what significant ratios are, why they matter, and how they help us understand what's happening behind symptoms like: Missing or irregular periods Fertility challenges Low energy and burnout Thyroid symptoms Blood sugar instability Anxiety and overwhelm Difficulty recovering from stress We also discuss why hormone imbalances are often the last thing to show up in the body—and why minerals may be the missing piece you've been overlooking. If you've completed an HTMA, are considering one, or simply want a better understanding of how minerals impact fertility, this episode is a must-listen. Ready to Restore Your Fertility? If you have a missing or irregular period and you're ready to uncover the root cause, we'd love to support you inside Premier Period Recovery for Fertility.

In Around the Room, we talked about a Florida couple in an IVF mix-up case who reached a custody agreement with the baby's genetic parents. The clinic allegedly mixed up embryos and implanted an embryo belonging to another set of biological parents. Amy started talking about why she wants to visit after watching the World Cup. We have to check Amy’s drink this morning after her reaction to a chair Taylor Swift sat in selling for a ton of money! Bobby shares how Amy made him a bunch of money just by sending him a random TikTok.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Gwyneth sits down with Erin and Sara Foster—writers, producers, and Favorite Daughter cofounders—for a candid conversation about sisterhood, navigating IVF while building a career, and how humor and honesty, and trusting that it will all work out have carried them through reinvention, unexpected love, and success in their forties.

Some episodes make you laugh. Some make you question humanity. This one does both.Today on The Rizzuto Show, we dive headfirst into one of the most unbelievable stories we've ever seen: a couple goes through years of IVF treatments, finally welcomes their daughter into the world, and then discovers through genetic testing that the baby isn't biologically related to either parent. The gang unpacks the emotional roller coaster, the custody questions, and the absolute nightmare scenario that unfolded when a fertility clinic apparently decided organization was optional.As if that wasn't enough emotional damage for one day, we also stumble into the internet's latest relationship disaster. A woman discovers that her husband didn't just tell a little white lie—he spent three entire years pretending he had a completely different job. Every day he came home and delivered elaborate stories about his fake receptionist life while actually working as a waiter. That's not a fib. That's an alternate universe.Moon dives into the psychology of pathological lying, Lern tries to process how anyone keeps that many stories straight, and Riz wonders exactly how many lies it takes before your entire personality becomes a group project.This funny podcast somehow manages to tackle shocking real-life stories while still delivering the kind of sarcastic chaos that only The Rizzuto Show can provide. We go from discussing embryo mix-ups to fake front-desk drama and somehow end up debating whether some people are simply professional nonsense generators.If you're into bizarre headlines, relationship train wrecks, pop culture commentary, and a group of radio friends trying to make sense of increasingly weird news, this funny podcast has everything you need. It's equal parts hilarious, horrifying, and oddly therapeutic.Because honestly, after hearing these stories, your own problems might seem downright manageable.This funny podcast is your daily reminder that reality writes scripts even comedy writers wouldn't pitch.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Sometimes this funny podcast feels less like a morning show and more like a group project assigned by chaos itself.In Episode 101, the gang dives into one of the wildest stories we've ever seen: an IVF clinic accidentally implanted the wrong embryo, leading one couple to discover the baby they carried wasn't genetically theirs. Somehow, despite an emotional situation that sounds like the plot of a TV drama, both families handled it with incredible grace and maturity. Meanwhile, the fertility clinic? Let's just say lawyers are probably keeping their phones charged.Then we switch gears into the bizarre world of pathological liars. Imagine finding out your spouse has been lying about their job for your entire marriage. Not just a little fib either. We're talking elaborate stories, fake workplace drama, and enough made-up details to fill an entire streaming series. The crew debates whether these people are master manipulators, deeply troubled, or simply putting their talents to use in the wrong industry.As if that wasn't enough weirdness for one episode, we also tackle first-date anxiety and the surprisingly scientific ways people try to calm their nerves before meeting someone new. There are hormones, endorphins, confidence boosts, and a whole lot of jokes that somehow make the science lesson significantly more entertaining.We also explore why people remember certain first dates forever while others completely blur together, why everyone suddenly becomes interested in you the second you're unavailable, and whether smartphones are quietly destroying human interaction and making it harder for people to form relationships and start families.This funny podcast somehow manages to move from medical mix-ups to dating disasters to modern technology ruining our social lives without spilling a drop of coffee. That's either talent or complete lack of supervision.So buckle up for another episode filled with weird news, sarcastic observations, questionable life advice, and the kind of conversations that make you wonder how we got here in the first place. It's a funny podcast about celebrity gossip, daily humor, relationship chaos, and the wonderfully ridiculous stories that make life interesting.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Navigating the complex world of reproductive health can feel overwhelming, but you don't have to sort through the confusion alone. In this episode of the As a Woman podcast, Dr. Natalie Crawford and Emily Whitlock answer listener questions about secondary infertility, PMOS (formerly PCOS), endometriosis, ovarian reserve, fertility supplements, and treatment options like IUI and IVF. Together, they break down the science behind common fertility concerns, address persistent myths and misconceptions, and provide practical, evidence-based insights to help you better understand your body, your options, and your fertility journey. What You'll Learn: The most frequently overlooked genetic blood work that could explain recurrent pregnancy loss and chemical pregnancies. How a progressive inflammatory disruptor can silently trigger secondary infertility as you age. The truth behind a massive social media myth regarding oral contraceptives and underlying ovarian function. Why a specific non-medication supplement option is a game-changer for cellular health and insulin resistance. The critical timeline rules and clinical nuances of utilizing a GLP-1 receptor agonist when planning a pregnancy. Dr. Natalie Crawford, board-certified OB-GYN and REI, answers your fertility and reproductive health questions. 4:04 If someone conceived their first two children naturally but is now struggling to get pregnant, could a condition like endometriosis have developed later and be contributing to secondary infertility? 05:06 Why are so many women being diagnosed with PCOS today, and why does there seem to be so much confusion about how to diagnose and manage it? Can birth control cause PCOS to develop? 8:32 Are there different stages or levels of PCOS, similar to how endometriosis is staged, or is PCOS simply a diagnosis you either have or do not have? 10:15 Prenatals contain nutrients like folic acid and choline that are considered critical for fetal development. If they are so important, why are these supplements not routinely prescribed during pregnancy? 12:05 A 34-year-old with diminished ovarian reserve but a normal antral follicle count is considering treatment. How many IUI cycles would you typically recommend before moving to IVF? 13:26 Who is considered a good candidate for IUI, and what factors help determine whether IUI is likely to be successful? 14:24 If a partner has excellent sperm parameters, does IUI still offer meaningful benefit, or are there situations where it may not be worth pursuing? 16:12 What are your thoughts on using myo-inositol or D-chiro-inositol to support fertility? If recommended, where do they fit into a supplement regimen? 19:43 Can myo-inositol or D-chiro-inositol be taken alongside a prenatal vitamin? If someone becomes pregnant while taking myo-inositol or D-chiro-inositol, should they continue or stop supplementation? Can GLP-1 medications help improve symptoms associated with PCOS? And is difficulty losing weight or unexplained weight gain considered a symptom of PCOS? 22:12 For someone who has successfully lost weight, whether through lifestyle changes, medication, or both, what strategies are most effective for maintaining that weight loss long term?
