Conventional medicine often stops at the numbers, low AMH, high FSH for Premature Ovarian Insufficiency (POI) and turns quickly to donor eggs or IVF. But through a functional fertility lens, we can uncover hidden factors like inflammation, nutrient deficiencies, gut health, and hormone imbalances that may support ovarian function and improve pregnancy success. In this episode of Get Pregnant Naturally, Fab Fertile founder Sarah Clark explains how functional fertility strategies can help reverse POI and improve your chances of conceiving with your own eggs. You'll also hear Amanda's story: she was told she'd never conceive naturally with an AMH of 0.08 ng/mL, yet went on to have her daughter. This episode is for you if: You've been told your only option with POI, low AMH, or high FSH is donor eggs You've experienced recurrent miscarriage or failed IVF cycles You want evidence-based strategies to improve egg quality and fertility outcomes naturally We'll cover the difference between genetic and idiopathic POI, why functional fertility shines in unexplained cases, and the top mistakes people make with a POI diagnosis. You'll leave with practical steps you can take right now to support ovarian function.

Did you know your gut health could be the missing link in your fertility journey?

In today's episode, I interview my client Rose, who shares her comprehensive fertility journey, highlighting the importance of self-advocacy and proactive research while navigating her reproductive health. Through persistence, not giving up and deciding to bring a fertility coach on board after a year of negative tests, she uncovered her barriers to fertility that were preventing her from getting pregnant. Her story is inspiring and sheds light on the importance of taking an active, informed approach to her own fertility, including addressing both physical and mental blocks.  Episode Highlights Rose opens up about life abroad, building a business and an unexpected 15-month journey to pregnancy. Discover what she didn't know about fertility when she started trying to conceive, and what she had to learn the hard way. From unhelpful doctor visits to a surprising discovery during a procedure, Rose reveals the turning point that changed everything. She also dives into the less-talked-about side of fertility: the mindset shifts and emotional work she had to do before she was ready. Now 18.5 weeks pregnant, Rose reflects on what finally made the difference and what she wishes she'd known sooner. If you're LOVING this podcast, please follow and leave a rating and review below.

Trying to conceive can feel like a never-ending cycle of guessing, hoping, and waiting. In today's episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on what I'm doing differently as my husband and I begin trying for baby #3. I share my personal fertility journey—from battling infertility and IVF to welcoming two miracle girls—and why this season feels different. This time, I'm pairing faith with science by using Inito, the at-home fertility monitor that tracks four key hormones for a full picture of your cycle. No more squinting at test strips or relying on app predictions. Inito has given me clarity, peace of mind, and a six-day fertile window backed by real data. But more than that, I'll walk you through the biblical perspective that shapes how I use tools like this: stewarding my body wisely, trusting God fully, and remembering that faith and science are not enemies. If you've ever felt like you're missing something or wasting precious cycles, this episode is for you. You'll walk away with practical TTC tools, spiritual encouragement, and a reminder that even in the waiting, God is good. ----more---- Try Inito THE Fertility Tool you Need - as shared today, this is the tool I just started using as we begin preparing for conceiving baby 3!!

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, your Fertility Docs unpack the different ways patients can be prepared for frozen embryo transfer (FET) cycles—because there's more than one path to pregnancy. From fully programmed cycles to completely natural approaches and modified natural protocols, the docs explain how each option works, what medications may be used, and the pros and cons of each. In a programmed cycle, the endometrium is carefully prepared with estrogen and then progesterone, with timing of the progesterone being critical to ensure the embryo is transferred during the ideal window of implantation. Natural cycles allow the body to take the lead, using ultrasound or ovulation kits to pinpoint ovulation and then timing progesterone and transfer accordingly. Modified natural cycles use letrozole and a trigger shot to encourage follicular growth, followed by progesterone support. While the approaches differ, success rates are similar—and the key takeaway is that there isn't a single “right” way to prepare for FET. The best choice depends on your body, your doctor, and your unique journey. This podcast was sponsored by Shady Grove Fertility.

Are you ignoring symptoms like painful periods, spotting, or constant fatigue—thinking they're just a normal part of being a woman?The truth is, these subtle signs may actually be your body waving red flags about your fertility. If left unchecked, they can delay or even prevent you from conceiving, even if your doctor has brushed them off as “normal.”In this episode, you'll discover:-The 7 key infertility symptoms most women overlook but shouldn't.-Why conventional care often dismisses these red flags—and what they're missing.-The first steps you can take today to uncover root causes and move closer to pregnancy with confidence.Press play now to learn how to decode your body's signals and finally take control of your fertility journey.

If you've been diagnosed with low AMH, high FSH, diminished ovarian reserve (DOR), premature ovarian insufficiency (POI), or have experienced recurrent pregnancy loss or failed IVF, you may be wondering if natural killer (NK) cells are playing a role. In this episode, Sarah Clark, founder of Fab Fertile, explains what NK cells are, when testing may be helpful, and why many reproductive endocrinologists dismiss it. You'll hear how functional fertility strategies, addressing inflammation, gut health, nutrient deficiencies, and immune balance; differ from conventional medicine and can improve egg quality, implantation, and pregnancy outcomes. We also cover what progressive fertility clinics are doing, what the research says, and how to decide if immunotherapy or intralipids are right for you. This episode is for you if you've had multiple implantation failures or miscarriages, feel dismissed by “normal” test results, and want evidence-based options to support your fertility journey.

TEXAS FLOODS TO TEXAS TOLL ROADS AND 15 MINUTE CITIES - STORYPOWER TV INTERVIEW J LOREN NORRIS WITH TERRI HALLTEXANS UNITING FOR REFORM & FREEDOM (TURF)Defending citizens' concerns about toll roads & eminent domain abuseWhat is TURF?Texans Uniting for Reform and Freedom (TURF) is a non-profit organization whose mission is to educate the public on our government's new shift to tolling using controversial financing methods called public-private partnerships (called Comprehensive Development Agreements or CDAs in Texas), the tolling of existing corridors, and the eminent domain abuse inherent in these plans (confiscating private land to give to a private company for commercial gain). TURF also educated the public about the Trans Texas Corridor (TTC), the first of the planned NAFTA Superhighways, and eventually helped pass a complete repeal of the TTC from state statute in 2011. TURF also helped secure a moratorium & sunset of controversial public private partnership road contracts in 2007 and was also the first grassroots group to oppose the use of stimulus money for toll roads in 2009, which garnered national coverage by the Washington Post, Wall Street Journal, New York Times and Fox News.TURF is a grassroots group of Texans asking for reforms through accountability and good public policy as well as promoting non-toll, sensible transportation solutions.

Today I pull back the curtain on an often-overlooked aspect of fertility: your partner's sperm health. In this episode, I dive into how sperm quality can profoundly influence placental development, affect the risk of miscarriage, and shape your baby's long-term health. You'll also discover why hearing “everything is normal” from your doctor isn't always the final word and why traditional labs miss the subtle, yet important, nuances hidden beneath the surface, especially in men who appear healthy and do all the right things.   Episode Highlights: Nora is back from her summer break and shares what's new — including an exciting return of one of her fertility coaching offers. Why men's sperm quality and quantity are declining, and what does it mean for fertility? Nora digs into the surprising factors most people overlook. Sperm does more than deliver DNA, discover its hidden role in shaping early pregnancy from the very start including the placenta Could poor sperm health be quietly contributing to miscarriage risk? Nora unpacks the science you may not have heard. Practical steps you can take right now: how advanced testing and a deeper look at “optimal health” (not just normal ranges) may transform fertility outcomes.

Fertility Docs Uncensored is hosted by Dr. Carrie Bedient from the Fertility Center of Las Vegas, Dr. Susan Hudson from Texas Fertility Center, and Dr. Abby Eblen from Nashville Fertility Center. In this episode, the Docs are joined by Nicole Marchetto, MD, a physician at Shady Grove Fertility Pennsylvania, Lancaster and Chesterbrook, to talk about a topic many patients quietly wonder about—when is it time to consider a second opinion?Seeking another perspective can feel intimidating, but Dr. Marchetto explains why most fertility doctors not only understand it but actually encourage it. A second opinion can help ensure that your treatment plan is appropriate—not outdated, not extreme, and not missing opportunities for success. Sometimes a fresh set of eyes leads to new approaches that your first doctor may not have considered.Far from being adversarial, second opinions often confirm that you're on the right path—or they may reveal alternative strategies that resonate more with your goals. If recommendations differ, it may be best to follow the physician whose plan makes the most sense to you, even if that means changing practices.Bottom line: your journey deserves the best possible care, and getting another perspective can be an empowering step.

We're diving into one of the most overlooked infections that could be silently impacting your fertility: Ureaplasma.

Researchers found it didn't affect fertilization or embryo quality but was linked to lower pregnancy rates after embryo transfer. The culprit? Infection in the endometrial lining which can disrupt implantation. So even if embryos look good Ureaplasma can still sabotage IVF success. https://academic.oup.com/humrep/article-abstract/6/5/727/609246?redirectedFrom=fulltext This study looked at whether Ureaplasma urealyticum in men's semen affects IVF. The results? Fertilization and pregnancy rates were the same for infected and uninfected men. But here's the thing, miscarriage rates were much higher in couples where the male partner had the infection. So Ureaplasma might not stop you from getting pregnant but it can increase the risk of losing the pregnancy. https://www.fertstert.org/article/S0015-0282(98)00472-5/fulltext Ultimate Guide to Getting Pregnant This Year If You Have Low AMH/High FSH  ---
