Today on the Egg Whisperer Show podcast, Dr. Geoffrey Sher joins me again to talk about his approach to care when it comes to IVF. We are discussing how he individualizes IVF protocols to optimize egg and embryo quality, giving his patients the best chance of IVF pregnancy. As he shares, there is no "one size fits all" approach to choosing the best protocol for IVF. It's no surprise that I agree with him. Protocols need to be customized, and are dependent on the woman's age and her ovarian reserve. Tune in as we talk about how to pick a protocol, the role of the trigger shot, the importance of hormones like estrogen and testosterone, and EZ-IVF versus mini IVF.

Women are living longer, healthier lives, but ovarian aging still impacts fertility and hormone production as it always has. In this episode, Francesca Duncan, PhD, discusses novel research into maintaining ovarian function, longer. This work could someday help prevent or slow down age-related changes to the ovaries, offering hope for better health as women age.

One in 8 women in the United States will have her ovaries removed prior to the onset of natural menopause, and this number is growing. On top of that, each year about 600,000 hysterectomies are performed and more than 300,000 women are diagnosed with breast cancer, many under the age of 50. If you or someone you love experienced this kind of procedure, you may be asking “now what?”. What are the impacts on the rest of your body when you experience abrupt menopause? Do other health risks increase? And what about breast cancer? This week, we are joined by Dr. Corinne Menn, a board-certified OB-GYN, a breast cancer survivor of over 23 years, and a BRCA gene carrier. Dr. Menn is using her own experience to help women navigate health challenges, especially when dealing with the impacts of being a cancer survivor or experiencing abrupt menopause. If you or someone you know has had her ovaries removed, had a hysterectomy, or even experienced breast cancer, then this episode is for you.

  Should ovarian health be considered a marker of longevity? Yes. Our ovarian production of adequate hormones impacts us on a daily basis including effects on cognition, energy, mood, sleep and metabolism. When our production of these hormones are low  we can deal with cyclical symptoms and PMS, infertility and a more difficult struggle into perimenopause and beyond. In this episode I talk about the biggest impacts I see in my practice on our ovarian health and what we can do to improve our sex hormone output and balance whether you want to feel better, get pregnant or just optimize your health overall.

Ovarian cancer is often called the “silent killer” for a reason: its early symptoms can be subtle, making it easy to mistake for other conditions. But being proactive about our health starts with awareness. What are the warning signs? Who's at risk? We spoke with Susanne Menon, NP, a nurse practitioner at Dana Farber Cancer Institute, to answer these essential questions. She shares key insights on how we can recognize the symptoms, discuss our concerns with healthcare providers, and helps us navigate the myths and facts surrounding ovarian cancer.

Did you know ovarian health is more than just about fertility? Jess Berman, Chief Marketing Officer at BodyBio—a company founded by her family to support health through high-quality supplements—shared her personal health journey, especially with PCOS, and how committing to ovarian health and mitochondrial support transformed her life. Turns out, keeping those ovaries happy is key to preventing issues like heart disease and dementia later on. Jess makes it all feel so doable—small shifts in our daily habits can have a lasting impact. We also got into the inner workings of mitochondria, those little powerhouses in our cells, and why they're so crucial in the ovaries for energy levels and overall vitality. Jess breaks down the effects of toxins on these cells and shares practical tips on detoxing from heavy metals and endocrine disruptors—things that often slip under our radar but can be a big part of feeling our best. She lets us in on essential nutrients like phosphatidylcholine and healthy fats that make a real difference at the cellular level. And for anyone ready to take these tips to the next level, Jess has shared a discount code “DrAnna” for BodyBio products to help you get started.

While many women believe that a normal ovarian reserve test means they have time, age plays a huge role in fertility that often goes overlooked.

When it comes to DOR, aka Diminished Ovarian Reserve, I will forever be reminding you, your friend, your friend's mom and anyone else who will listen: “diminished” does not mean “zero”! That's why I'm so happy to have Dr. Geoffrey Sher back on the show to talk all about egg stimulation specifically for women with a diminished ovarian reserve.  I know when patients hear “diminished” when it comes to their eggs, they think it's all over. They imagine they've gone from having a whole bunch of gorgeous, high-quality eggs right to having none at all. The truth is, every ovulating human on earth is going to go through DOR. And when it happens, it happens slowly, over time. There's no emergency "eggs-it" that all your eggs run through all of a sudden, taking all your fertility journey goals with them. Just because you may have gotten a DOR diagnosis does not mean your fertility journey ends here. In fact, there are still many ways that you can work with your doctor to give your remaining eggs the best chance at success. Like I always say: all it takes is one good egg! Dr. Sher had so many excellent insights to share in this episode. Here are just a few things we talked about in this amazing conversation: What you need to know about egg quality and how it declines over time What we can do to give eggs the best chance during IVF Why you might choose birth control (you read that right!) in this situation If you or someone you care about is wondering what to do after a DOR diagnosis, tune in to this episode of the podcast at the link in my profile. I promise, there's still so much hope for you and your dreams Thank you once again for a great conversation, Dr. Sher!  

Send us a textIn this episode of Taco Bout Fertility Tuesday, we dive into the 'Who can make the most eggs contest' and debunk the myth that low ovarian reserve equals low chances of getting pregnant. Ovarian reserve might tell us how many eggs we can make, but it doesn't predict our ability to conceive. Dr. Mark Amols breaks down the difference between ovarian reserve and actual pregnancy chances, explaining why it's more about quality than quantity and how age plays a bigger role. Whether you're concerned about your AMH, FSH, or just curious about your fertility health, this episode is all about finding hope beyond the numbers.Thanks for tuning in to another episode of 'Taco Bout Fertility Tuesday' with Dr. Mark Amols.

Dr. Natalie Crawford dives deep into ovarian failure, perimenopause, and hormones. We explore how ovarian function can cease at any age, even before puberty, and discuss the natural decline in ovarian reserve as women age. She highlights the significance of estrogen, its role in overall health, and how its decline impacts women during menopause. Dr. Crawford also covers essential tests like AMH and antral follicle count, providing insights into a woman's egg supply and reproductive potential. Natalie answers your questions in FFS-For Fertility's Sake How can I increase my chances of getting pregnant if I am in early menopause? I don't have periods and was told I have hypothalamic amenorrhea but no testing was done. Should I ask for more tests? Can I still get pregnant with low hormones?
