Today, Ali is talking to Zach and Alexandra French, the founders of the nonprofit organization The Surrogacy Foundation, whose mission "isn't just to raise funds, but to propel surrogacy into the mainstream." Zach and Alexandra share their entire family building story, from how they met and got together to having their first child without Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART). They talk about what happened when Alexandra found a lump in her breast, and how they navigated her cancer diagnosis and treatment. They also talk about Alexandra's double mastectomy, and how they pivoted to surrogacy after her surgery. "My doctor said if we wanted to expand our family, I could no longer carry. We would have to turn towards surrogacy--because if i carried another child, my cancer would return," Alexandra says. They talk about all of the intricacies of surrogacy, from finding a match to navigating the legal side, and share what it was like when their next baby was finally born. They also talk about creating the Surrogacy Foundation and how they've raised more than $500,000 so far to help families in need. "At The Surrogacy Foundation we don't just raise money; we help families every step of the way," they say. "Because education is essential to accessibility, we provide state of the art education based on decades of experience in an easy-to-use format."For more, go to www.thesurrogacyfoundation.orgFollow on IG: @thesurrogacyfoundation TOPICS COVERED IN THIS EPISODE: Breast cancer; chemotherapy; double mastectomy; trying to conceive; surrogacy; nonprofits; surrogacy grants; ARTEPISODE SPONSORS: BEAUTIFUL BIRD AND WORK OF ARTAli's Children's Book Series about IVF, IUI and Family Building Through Assisted Reproductive Technology https://www.infertileafgroup.com/booksThe latest book in the Work of ART series, “Beautiful Bird” tells the story of three parents, one incredible boy and a family built with love—and a little bit of science.Pre-orders are available now!

Our conversation today is so relatable. In this episode, Cynthia interviews Kaitlin Feda about her journey recovering her menstrual cycle after experiencing period loss due to restrictive eating and exercise habits. Kaitlin shares her struggles with body image, the impact of societal pressures, and the importance of community support during her recovery. She discusses the emotional challenges of repairing relationships on the other side of HA. The conversation emphasizes the significance of self-acceptance, the benefits of recovery, and the transformative power of prioritizing health over appearance.Takeaways:DIY period recovery vs. having the guidance and support of providers, practitioners and a community. Diet restriction and body obsession before a big event like a wedding can cause HA.Kaitlin was diagnosed with PCOS after not getting her period for six months.She experienced a binge-restrict cycle that controlled her life, but Kaitlin found support in a community of women going through similar experiences.The comments from others about her body were difficult to navigate during recovery. Positive body comments can perpetuate an eating disorder.Kaitlin found joy in life after letting go of body obsession, following the example of her sister and many in the Period Recovery Community. Kaitlin's relationships improved significantly after recovery.The journey to recovery was not easy, but it was worth it.Apply for coaching w/Cynthia:  https://0u8h3wddwmr.typeform.com/StrategyCallDiscover the truth about HA:  click the link to download Cynthia's fact sheet that debunks common myths and misinformation! Website: https://www.periodnutritionist.comInstagram: www.instagram.com/period.nutritionistFor the full show notes - please visit my website: periodnutritionist.com

Have you been told your AMH is low, your eggs are too old, or you're “running out of time”? Egg quality is one of the most misunderstood pieces of the fertility puzzle. Most women are told it's static or age-dependent, but the truth is: egg quality is dynamic and influenced by what's happening inside your body right now. If your cycles feel irregular, you're not seeing signs of ovulation, or you've had unexplained infertility or failed IVF cycles, this episode is essential listening. You'll learn what your cervical mucus, BBT, and hormone levels can tell you—and how to decode whether your eggs are getting the support they need to thrive.In this episode, you'll discover...-The 5 subtle but powerful signs that point to strong egg quality-What your follicular phase, luteal length, and lab values reveal about your ovarian health-Simple, natural strategies to improve egg quality in just 3–4 months (even with low AMH or “advanced maternal age”)

In this episode of The Common Sense MD, Dr. Tom Rogers dives into the revolutionary practice of microdosing GLP-1 medications, a class of drugs originally developed for diabetes but now widely recognized for their impressive benefits in weight loss, metabolic health, and beyond. Dr. Rogers shares his own experience with microdosing tirzepatide—even though he isn't diabetic or obese—and discusses why these medications are game-changers not just for diabetes and obesity, but for a wide array of health issues.He breaks down how GLP-1 and GIP incretin hormones work, the evolution of these medications, and what makes microdosing effective and accessible for more people. Dr. Rogers also covers the many potential off-label benefits: from cardiovascular and neuroprotective effects, to improved liver function, help with conditions like PCOS and migraines, addiction support, and more. He addresses the cost and accessibility of these drugs, especially through compounding pharmacies, and emphasizes safety, monitoring, and individualized care.Whether you're a patient interested in the latest in metabolic medicine or just curious about GLP-1s, this episode offers a clear, practical, and insightful look at how these medications can fit into a broader strategy for health, longevity, and well-being.What did you think of this episode of the podcast?

In this episode of the PCOS Repair Podcast, you'll discover why it's not only possible, but highly likely, that you have more than one root cause contributing to your PCOS symptoms. From insulin resistance to chronic inflammation, stress response, and hormone and nutrient disruption, PCOS rarely stems from just one issue. This episode walks you through how to identify your dominant root cause while acknowledging that other contributing factors may also be playing a role.Why Identifying a Primary Root Causes MattersAlthough most women with PCOS have overlapping root causes, identifying your primary one helps guide your efforts more effectively. Within this episode, you'll learn how focusing your energy on the most active root cause can give you the biggest results, rather than spreading yourself thin by trying to fix everything at once. You'll also hear examples of how insulin-related symptoms can overshadow others, making it essential to focus where you'll see the most progress.Navigating Combinations of Root CausesWhen quiz results or symptoms point to more than one dominant root cause, it can be confusing to know where to start. In this episode, you'll learn how to prioritize your primary root cause without ignoring the others. The discussion includes how overlapping causes, like insulin imbalance paired with stress, require a strategic approach, and how addressing one often leads to improvement in others as well.You'll also discover how to pair your PCOS root cause(s) with your primary health goals, whether it's weight loss, fertility, more energy, or better cycles. This episode guides you through the process of designing a personalized strategy based on your root cause assessment, your most pressing symptoms, and your lifestyle. You'll hear how even small, consistent changes can help your body start healing and create momentum over time.You can take the quiz to discover your root cause hereLet's continue the conversation on Instagram! What did you find helpful in this episode and what follow-up questions do you have?The full list of Resources & References Mentioned can be found on the Episode webpage at:https://nourishedtohealthy.com/ep-154

"Your periods shouldn't be unbearably painful. Most women in their 50s will experience dryness. Muscle mass matters more than being thin." These are just some of the straightforward truths nurse midwife Claire McStacy shares in this comprehensive conversation about women's health through the decades.From establishing care in your twenties to navigating the changes of menopause, this episode cuts through the noise of trending TikTok videos to deliver practical guidance on what's actually happening in your body and what you can do about it. McStacy brings 23 years of experience to address questions many women have but don't know who to ask: When should cervical cancer screening begin? (Age 21.) What does perimenopause actually feel like? (Brain fog, irregular periods, and possibly up to ten years of symptoms.) How do hormones affect your heart health after menopause? (Significantly, women lose estrogen's protective effects, making heart attack risk similar to men's, though symptoms present differently.)The conversation tackles critical but often overlooked topics, including PCOS (affecting 8% of women), the importance of preconception health, managing fibroids (particularly common among African American women) and the benefits and risks of hormone replacement therapy. Throughout, McStacy emphasizes the importance of establishing and maintaining a relationship with your healthcare provider for personalized guidance.Perhaps most powerfully, this episode challenges listeners to prioritize self-care at every stage of life. As McStacy notes, "When you have time for yourself, you have time for everybody else." Whether you're concerned about fertility in your twenties, managing work-life balance in your thirties, noticing perimenopausal symptoms in your forties or navigating post-menopausal changes in your fifties, this comprehensive guide helps you understand what's normal, when to seek help and how to advocate for your health.For more content from Centra Health check us out on the following channels.YouTubeFacebookInstagramTwitter

Summer brings sunshine, patios, travel plans - and let's be honest, a few more spontaneous meals, skipped routines and late nights. It's easy to feel like your health goals take a backseat this season. But staying “on track” doesn't have to mean perfection. And it definitely doesn't mean missing out on the fun. In this episode, we're diving into what it really looks like to care for your health in a sustainable, balanced way during the summer months, without the pressure to “start over” every Monday. Whether you're managing PCOS, gut health, or simply trying to feel more energized and in tune with your body, this conversation will give you tangible tools to stay consistent and present. If this episode resonates with you, we'd love to hear it through a rating and review! Episode links: Free Hormone + Gut Health Toolkit

In today's episode I'm diving deep into one of the most debated questions of PCOS and fertility - should you be eating a low-carb diet when preparing for pregnancy with PCOS? If you've ever wondered why blood sugar seems to fluctuate more when you have PCOS, or why so many experts talk about insulin resistance and its impact on your fertility journey, you're in the right place. In this episode, I break down the science behind why PCOS makes you more susceptible to insulin resistance and what that actually means for your body and your hormones. I'll explore why blood sugar swings are more common with PCOS, how those ups and downs can affect ovulation and egg quality, and—most importantly—what you can do about it with your food choices. But here's where it gets really interesting. While low-carb and keto diets are often promoted as the “fix” for PCOS, the truth is much more nuanced. I'll share why these diets can sometimes backfire, especially when you're trying to conceive, and what you need to know to truly support your fertility and hormone health for the long term.

Story at-a-glance Most ovarian cysts are harmless and disappear naturally, but some cause severe complications like rupture or twisting the ovary, requiring emergency surgery Vegetable oils like canola and sunflower act as fake estrogens, damaging ovarian tissue and fueling cyst formation due to linoleic acid content PCOS drives recurring cysts through hormonal chaos, particularly insulin resistance and elevated estrogen that disrupts normal ovarian function and cycles Natural pain relief includes heat therapy, massage and gentle movement, while chamomile and ginger teas help reduce inflammation and balance hormones Prevention focuses on eliminating vegetable oils, addressing insulin resistance and considering natural progesterone to restore hormonal balance and stop cyst recurrence

“Your ovulation is your fifth vital sign. Ignoring it is like ignoring your breath.” Topics Discussed The hidden risks of long-term birth control use PCOS, ovarian cysts, and natural healing Fertility timelines and age myths The emotional cost of control on the fertility journey Hormone-disrupting chemicals and modern lifestyle traps Emotional load, overwork, and reproductive stress Creating space and safety for the baby to arrive Why slowing down is sometimes the real medicine “Your body isn't broken. It's brilliant. And it's begging you to slow down and listen.” Hello Beautiful Souls, Monica here... If you've ever walked out of a doctor's office with more confusion than clarity and a birth control script you didn't ask for, this episode is going to hit home. I'm talking with the incredible Jenna Longoria—aka the Period Guru—who's lived the nightmare of being dismissed, medicated, and nearly losing an ovary on her honeymoon. Yep. You read that right. We unpack how years of fake hormones can shut down your body and your intuition, how the post-pill rollercoaster almost took Jenna out, and why timelines are straight-up illusions that fuel fertility burnout. We also go there with the truth about PCOS, secondary infertility, and why sometimes your baby hasn't arrived yet… because your body is asking you to come home to it first. Jenna and I crack open a raw, honest conversation about the toxic pressure to do more, be more, push harder... and the quiet truth your body's been whispering all along. We talk about the deep conditioning that keeps women sprinting through burnout while TTC and the illusion of control IVF sometimes offers. This isn't a blame game, it's a wake-up call. Because if you're trying to create life from a body that's running on empty, something's got to give. We get radically real about redefining success, softening the grip, and why sometimes creating space (literally and emotionally) is the most fertile thing you can do. It's not about giving up your dreams. It's about remembering that you're already worthy — before the baby, before the timeline, before all the boxes get checked. Press play if you're ready to trade hustle for healing and make space for a miracle. “The answer to our fertility crisis isn't more IVF. It's more rest, more presence, more truth.” Timestamps [01:17] Jenna shares her story of painful periods, PCOS, the birth control pill, and her healing journey. [04:37] How disconnection from your natural cycle silences your intuition. [07:45] Age, fear, the myth of the fertility cliff, and why control and timelines are sabotaging your fertility. [13:10] How modern life and everyday chemicals disrupt our hormones and fertility. [16:34] The hard truth about overdoing, overworking, and the disconnect from your essence. [19:00] Understanding why connection and presence matter more than performance. [22:30] How to get radically honest with yourself and create space your future baby can feel. [24:39] The deeper reason your baby might be waiting to come through. “If you're not ovulating, you're disconnected from your intuition and the source.” Full Transcript on the Blog: https://www.findingfertility.co/blog/the-real-reason-ivf-isn-t-working-burnout-control-and-your-body-s-cry-for-rest  Connect with Jenna Longoria: https://www.instagram.com/theperiodguru/ https://pages.jennalongoria.com/fertility-checklist/ Let's Do This Together

In this episode, Dr. Aimee goes live to answer your fertility questions, covering topics like DNA fragmentation, thyroid health, PCOS, embryo transfer timing, and more. She's joined by Paula the Producer and takes additional questions from viewers tuning in live! Here are the listener-submitted questions featured in this episode: 1. Sarah (39) from Maryland wrote in to ask: After four early pregnancy losses from unassisted conceptions, and now with four frozen euploid embryos, could DNA fragmentation still be a factor in causing miscarriage? 2. Stephanie (41) from California is wondering: Her doctor suggested doing a second egg retrieval and a frozen embryo transfer in the same week, using an embryo from the first retrieval. Is this really possible, and what are the pros and cons of doing both in one cycle? 3. Alex (38) from England asks Dr. Aimee: With a frozen embryo transfer coming up, does she really need to stop her favorite high-intensity workouts like Hyrox and Barry's Bootcamp? 4. Rebecca (37) from the United Kingdom is asking: After her TSH spiked unexpectedly to 27, can she still proceed with egg retrieval and freeze any good-quality embryos now, even if she needs to delay the transfer until her thyroid is back in range? 5. Lindsay (33) from Rhode Island wrote to ask: With a high antral follicle count but low mature egg yield, what else can she do (beyond lifestyle changes and supplements) to improve egg maturity during IVF? 6. Fab (37) from Australia wonders: After years of endometriosis, multiple surgeries, and one failed IVF cycle with no successful transfers, what can she do differently or consider for her upcoming round? 7. Elise (38) from Oregon wrote in with this question: She experienced intense pregnancy-like symptoms, like breast soreness, cramps, and dizziness, during failed transfers and unmedicated cycles. Is it possible for an embryo to cause these symptoms without actually implanting?

Episode 25:27 How To Prevent, And Reverse, Insulin Resistance If you listened to the last two episodes of the Get Healthy Alabama podcast you learned three “health facts”: 1) High cholesterol does not cause heart disease. Insulin resistance does. 2) Insulin resistance also causes many other disease: Type 2 Diabetes, Alzheimer's, Cancer, PCOS, erectile dysfunction, fatty liver disease, and arthritis. 3) You can tell if you have Insulin Resistance through three blood tests:   - Fasting blood glucose.   - A1 C   - Fasting insulin   An elevated level of any of these is a sign of Insulin Resistance. On this week's episode I teach you how to reverse and correct Insulin Resistance. Specifically, I share four “tools” you can use to help lower your blood sugar and Insulin levels. Four “tools“ that will help you restore your health in a natural way… without the use of drugs. Please give this episode a good listen as Insulin Resistance affects the overwhelming majority of adults in this country. And, as always, please share this episode with a friend.

Have you ever been told your irregular cycle or acne is “just hormones”? In this episode of The Wellness Effect, we're diving deep into PCOS (Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome)—what it really is, why so many women are being misdiagnosed, and how it connects to much more than just your ovaries. We share our personal experiences with PCOS, the shocking gaps in medical understanding, and how insulin resistance—not just hormones—is often the hidden root cause. If you've struggled with irregular periods, acne, unexplained weight gain, or frustrating doctor visits, this episode is a must-listen.   In this episode, we discuss... The three types of PCOS—and why they're all connected to insulin resistance How high insulin disrupts your hormones, causes cysts, and impacts weight The emotional toll of misdiagnosis and poor doctor support Why conventional bloodwork can be misleading What the Dutch Test can and can't tell you Tips for managing PCOS symptoms naturally and understanding your body's cues   Key Takeaways: Insulin resistance—not just hormones—is often the root cause of PCOS. Many women are told their symptoms are due to hormone issues, but elevated insulin is usually what drives cyst formation, irregular periods, acne, and stubborn weight gain. You can have PCOS without cysts—and cysts without PCOS. The name “Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome” is misleading. It's not about having cysts—it's about what's causing the hormonal dysregulation behind the scenes. Standard lab tests often miss the full picture. Conventional bloodwork may come back “normal,” even when your body is under stress. Functional testing, like the DUTCH test, paired with symptom awareness and lifestyle context, gives a more accurate view of your hormonal health.     Resources: Ovasitol® Inositol Powder Supplement - Use Jensen's code WELLNESSWJENSEN at checkout!   Listen to our Related Episodes: Balancing Blood Sugar: Simple Hacks for Better Energy, Hormones, and Metabolism Endocrine Disruptors: 5 Hidden Toxins That Could Be Wrecking Your Hormones Drainage Pathways 101: How to Support Detox, & Eliminate Toxins Naturally Why Hiring a Health Coach Might Be the Best Investment You'll Ever Make     Want more from us?

A popular topic around women's health is PCOS, insulin resistance, and potential issues this can cause when attempting to lose fat in a dieting phase. Does PCOS directly affect fat and weight loss efforts or is there more to it? I want to share a recent meta-analysis on this topic and what we can learn as coaches or someone in their own transformation.

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 of Fertility Docs Uncensored, the doctors tackle your most pressing questions about polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Many PCOS patients have high AMH levels, and often that means more eggs at retrieval. However, sometimes a high egg count doesn't always translate into more embryos or more to transfer, and the Docs explain why quantity doesn't always equal quality. They also dive into IUI cycles for PCOS patients, including the advantages of combining IUI with ovulation induction. The team recommends limiting ovulation induction + IUI attempts to no more than three or four before considering other options. For those with a history of miscarriage, they emphasize the importance of a thorough recurrent pregnancy loss workup, regardless of PCOS status. Should you move to IVF sooner? The docs explore that too—especially for those wanting multiple children, facing recurrent miscarriage, or when male factor issues are in play. The episode wraps with a discussion of medications like metformin and inositols, and when to consider laparoscopy—typically reserved for symptoms like painful periods or signs of endometriosis. This podcast was sponsored by ReceptivaDx.

You'll learn: How CGMs work and why real-time glucose data matters What to look for in your daily glucose curve How to get your own CGM  When elevated blood sugar is caused by food vs cortisol How to use your data to build a healing plan

Guest: Danny Ross, Jr., UFCW Local 152 President   Host: Dan Bulger, Progyny    Danny and Elizabeth Ross got married at 26, excited to start their lives together and hopeful about growing a family. When they started trying, they were met with a series of challenges that changed everything.  Elizabeth was diagnosed with endometriosis and PCOS. Danny had male factor infertility. After a year of trying to conceive, they were told their best option was IVF. At the time, they had no fertility coverage.  They started with IUI. One attempt turned into two, then six, then thirteen. They tore through their savings. Elizabeth suffered an ectopic pregnancy that led to the removal of one of her fallopian tubes. They had hit a wall. IVF was their next and only option.  On their third round of IVF, their first daughter was finally born, and they welcomed their second, a few years later. Through it all, Danny and Elizabeth remained each other's rocks: husband, wife, and best friends.  Today, Danny is the president of UFCW Local 152, where he oversees the benefits for thousands of union members. When the opportunity arose to improve those benefits, his mind immediately went to fertility. Could they offer fertility coverage to union families so others wouldn't have to go through what he did?  After an exhaustive search, they decided to partner with Progyny, a labor-friendly benefit with experience supporting union members. For Danny, what stood out most were the Progyny Care Advocates and Smart Cycle plan design. It was everything they never had: guidance, clarity, and a path to better outcomes.  Tune into this episode as Danny reflects on the impact of adding fertility coverage to his union's benefits and the importance of leaving things better than he found them.  For more information, visit Progyny's Podcast page and Progyny's Education page for more resources.

In this episode, Kelsey is joined by Dr. Rachel Corradetti-Sargeant to explore a topic that's rarely discussed on the Visionary Life Podcast but incredibly important, fertility especially for high-achieving women balancing business and family goals. Drawing from over a decade of experience as a naturopathic doctor specializing in fertility, Dr. Rachel shares the realities many women face when trying to conceive, the common challenges like PCOS and thyroid imbalances, and how stress and modern lifestyles factors play a crucial role.

In this episode of the PCOS Repair Podcast, we'll take an honest look at the emotional impact of PCOS and how the thoughts and feelings you experience can shape your health journey. While emotions can be a driving force for creating habits and discipline, they can also become heavy obstacles, leading to doubt, frustration, and feeling stuck. This episode is all about recognizing those emotions, learning from them, and moving forward with compassion and clarity.Why PCOS Feels So Heavy EmotionallyManaging physical symptoms like irregular cycles, fatigue, and weight struggles is already a challenge, but it also comes with an emotional toll. This episode acknowledges that persistent symptoms can trigger discouragement, especially when your efforts don't seem to yield results. Whether it's getting sick right when momentum builds or dealing with setbacks like injuries or stress, it can feel like the odds are stacked against you. You'll learn how emotional resilience plays a key role in continuing forward when the path feels difficult.How PCOS Impacts Self-Image and ConfidenceYou'll discover how PCOS can deeply affect your self-image, from weight gain and fertility struggles to symptoms like acne or unwanted hair growth. These physical symptoms often chip away at confidence and make it hard to feel like yourself. In this episode, you'll explore how these feelings are common, valid, and deserving of care, not just physical, but emotional. Learning to separate your worth from your symptoms is a foundational mindset shift that opens up space for healing.Goals That Reflect GrowthInstead of tying your health journey to the number on a scale, this episode encourages you to set meaningful goals rooted in how you want to feel, live, and show up in your life. You'll learn how to shift from appearance-based pressure to behavior-based goals. These goals offer both empowerment and a sense of progress, even before external changes are visible. You'll be reminded that healing doesn't have to be rushed. Instead, it's about honoring where you are, tracking your growth through non-scale victories, and celebrating every step forward.You can take the quiz to discover your root cause hereLet's continue the conversation on Instagram! What did you find helpful in this episode, and what follow-up questions do you have?The full list of Resources & References Mentioned can be found on the Episode webpage at:https://nourishedtohealthy.com/ep-153

Kristin Charbo is the Co-Founder and CEO of Glonuts, the better-for-you donut brand redefining indulgence with clean ingredients and low sugar. But her journey didn't start in food or even in business. Kristin spent over 15 years in luxury hospitality, opening hotels for brands like Mandarin Oriental and PUBLIC in New York. It wasn't until a PCOS diagnosis in her early 20s that she was forced to rethink her relationship with food, wellness, and ultimately, her career. That health wake-up call eventually sparked the idea for a nostalgic, blood-sugar-friendly treat she wished existed. What started as a “healthy donut thing” from a coffee cart quickly took on a life of its own, leading Kristin and her partner Grover to deliver over 100,000 donuts from their one-bedroom apartment and even use their wedding money to rebrand the business. Today, Glonuts is one of the most exciting brands in wellness snacking, stocked everywhere from Erewhon to H-E-B markets and other retailers all across the US.In this episode, Kristin gets real about what it actually takes to build something from nothing—when you don't have a blueprint, just a product people love and the grit to figure it out. She opens up about the mental rollercoaster of entrepreneurship, the scrappy early days of hand-delivering donuts, and the power of iterating on feedback. We talk about the challenges of fundraising as a female founder, how she built a network of powerhouse women who now double as investors and advisors, and why personal growth is just as critical as business growth. Whether you're dreaming of starting your own thing or in the thick of figuring it out as you go, Kristin's story is your reminder that success isn't always linear but it always starts with taking the first messy step.In this episode, we'll talk to Kristin about:* Glonuts began as an unexpected leap into entrepreneurship.
