Dr. Sarah Rattray joins us today as we're digging into how to improve our relationship during the fertility journey. I can't believe I'm about to celebrate 25 years of marriage in June. We met each other at our university bar called the - The Rat ( yep it was a hole in the wall ). I was wearing one of my super short skirts (cue 90's fashion) plus a coat with a fur collar that he called my beaver p...

Dr. Deb Matthew joins us today as we're digging into how to address missed healing opportunities for male factor infertility. Most of the time it's women that find me – either by listening to my Get Pregnant Naturally podcast (we recently celebrated over 400,000 downloads) , my blog, YouTube channel, or social media.

Dr. Tracy Gapin joins us today as we're digging into how to optimize male fertility so that you can get pregnant naturally.

I've spoken with so many couples that are struggling with infertility and many tell me that the male partner has not even been examined or received a semen analysis –...

Dr. Shanna Swan joins us today as we're digging into why male and female fertility is declining and what you can do to improve your egg/sperm health. At Fab Fertile HQ we talk about the importance of eliminating exposure to environmental toxins. This is crucial for both male and female fertility. A 2017 study from an environmental and reproductive epidemiologist, Dr. Shanna Swan has found: Sperm c...

Justine Altman joins us today as we're digging into how to optimize male fertility.

Dr. Evan Hirsch joins us today as we're digging into why optimizing energy levels and addressing fatigue is essential when you are on the TTC journey. Many of us struggle with low energy or fatigue. And while dips in energy can be normal, feeling constantly tired or low energy may be a sign to dig deeper. As you may know, we don't focus singularly on the infertility diagnosis…. we look at the whol...

Sarah Phillipe joins We're digging into breast implant illness and why this matters if you are TTC. At every birthday during my teens when I blew out my candles my wish was always to make my breasts grow. Crazy right…who said big boobs were better? I had a group of girlfriends where all of us had small boobs. And we often discussed getting implants. None of us did. I learned to love my small breas...

Justine Altman joins us today as we're digging into the AIP diet and what you need to know if you are TTC. We get a lot of questions about the AIP (autoimmune protocol) diet and if it is right for fertility. As you may know, we specialize in complex cases such as low AMH, high FSH, diminished ovarian reserve, and premature ovarian insufficiency. Most people who come to me are eating a "clean" diet...

Brandy Buskow joins us today as we're digging into why gluten matters if you are TTC. I get this question all the time, "Should I go gluten-free if I'm trying to conceive". As you may know, I was diagnosed with premature ovarian insufficiency at 28 and had both my kids with donor eggs. Years later I discovered food sensitivities, gut infections, and chronic stress were the cause of my infertility....

Justine Altman joins us today as w Changing to a healthy preconception diet is not about deprivation or eating food that tastes like cardboard. You have your WHY, so let's get started. Justine is a Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner. She was diagnosed with POCS and struggled with infertility but after taking a functional approach was able to have both her children naturally. In this epis...

Dr. Amy Day joins us today as we're digging into how to get pregnant naturally with endometriosis. Endometriosis affects approximately 175 million women in the world and 1 in 10 women in their reproductive years. It can take anywhere from 6-10 years to get an endometriosis diagnosis – so many women struggle and are simply told, "that it's just a bad period". March is endometriosis awareness month....

Afton Vechery joins us today as we're digging taking a proactive approach to your fertility early in the journey. In my teens, my periods were so heavy and I would bleed through the pads (it was especially mortifying during high school as I was always worried people could see the huge pad or that I was leaking!). And then in my early 20's, my periods disappeared altogether and I was placed on horm...

Welcome to day#3 of our Mini-Series on the impact of stress on fertility. If someone told me that my premature ovarian failure/insufficiency diagnosis was related to food sensitivities, gut infections, thyroid imbalance, blood sugar imbalance, and chronic stress…I probably would have been shocked. When I was diagnosed with POF/POI almost 20 years ago – no one was talking about this. My only hope f...

Welcome to day#2 of our Mini-Series on the impact of stress on fertility. I know when I was on the fertility journey I wouldn't have said I was stressed. I now know that I experienced chronic stress for years. I always felt tense and anxious (I had TMJ and at one point couldn't even open my mouth to eat). I was very controlling and felt the need to plan everything. I was super impatient and put a...

I'm sure someone has probably told you "just relax… you'll get pregnant". And while this advice may be well-meaning – it is completely unhelpful and places blame on you. Because after all if you could relax and get pregnant you would have done it already! 2) Why telling someone to relax or blaming yourself for stress is not helpful ---- TIMESTAMPS: 05:13- INTRO TO TODAY'S EPISODE AND JUSTINE'S BIO...

Jennifer Robertson joins us today as we're digging into lessons learned from the fertility journey. If someone told me there were valuable life lessons I would learn from the fertility journey – when I was right in the middle of the struggle – I probably would have told them where to go. And it may be easy to share these lessons when we're on the other side of the journey but we share them because...

Justine Altman joins us today as we're digging into themes we see with low AMH/high FSH. Typically the conventional approach offers very few solutions for these diagnoses as IVF is often not an option and donor eggs are a standard recommendation. What we know after working with couples with low AMH/high FSH is that healing opportunities are regularly missed. When we look at the whole body we can b...

Nancy Weiss joins us today as we're digging into how to tap into your spirituality so that you know that your baby is coming. Many times when we're in the middle of a struggle we can't even see a way out. However, every struggle has a beginning, middle, and end. And while you may be stuck in the messy middle you do have a choice about how you navigate the fertility journey. That why I designed the...

Devon Baeza joins us today as we're digging self-sabotage and why this matters for fertility. By January 19th most of us have already given up our New Years' resolution. I know…my chip habit is back (gluten-free and organic but still…lol). And even if you are still pushing through you may be dealing with self-sabotage. We set the goal to eat better, get more sleep, exercise more, and work on our s...

Justine Altman joins us today as we're digging into the basic supplements you need to know about if you are TTC. There is a lot of information about which supplements are right for fertility. And like most women that I speak with you are probably taking A LOT of supplements. But are these supplements optimizing or harming your fertility? And taking supplements for years and not really knowing WHY...

Justine Altman joins us today as we're digging into why addressing constipation matters if you are TTC. I remember going away on a girl's weekend (remember those!?!) and somehow we got around to the topic of poop! Well, it turns out half of the girls on the trip weren't pooping regularly…as in they were going every couple of days or some even going only once per week! Now I've always been regular...
