As a passionate fertility doctor, I'm thrilled to join Jennifer Edmonds on this episode to share the real truths about improving your chances of conception: whether you're trying naturally or preparing for fertility treatments. We dive into the most common misconceptions I see online, the importance of understanding your diagnosis before starting treatment, and why hope and accurate information are essential on your fertility journey. My goal is to empower you with knowledge, practical advice, and a sense of reassurance that you're not alone in this process. Throughout our conversation, I open up about the emotional impact of fertility challenges, the lifestyle changes that truly make a difference, and the questions you should be asking your doctor. We also discuss why so many people are left with "unexplained" infertility, how to advocate for yourself in the medical system, and the overlooked factors that can affect your outcome. I hope you'll walk away feeling informed, supported, and ready to take the next step with confidence. In this episode we cover: The critical role of getting a clear diagnosis before starting fertility treatments Lifestyle and supplement strategies that can improve egg and sperm quality How to advocate for yourself and communicate effectively with your medical team The emotional toll of fertility struggles and resources for mental health support Commonly overlooked factors like endometriosis and the importance of personalized care Find "Your Journey to Fertility" with Jennifer Edmonds on YouTube @elementpilatesyoga Visit Element Pilates Yoga's website Click here to join Dr. Aimee for The IVF Class.

Could a simple blood test help identify endometriosis before you spend years being told you have "unexplained infertility"? Endometriosis is one of the most underdiagnosed causes of fertility challenges, and many women spend a decade or more looking for answers with their doctors. Sadly, some patients are diagnosed with "unexplained infertility" when endometriosis may actually be part of the picture. This can lead to delays in treatment and pregnancy.   As you know, I always say "diagnosis before treatment." The frustrating thing is that doctors often have a blind spot around endometriosis because the traditional way to confirm it has been through laparoscopic surgery, which is an outpatient procedure. Plus, some doctors are dismissive of endo, and don't insist on patients getting tested. The good news is that fertility specialists now have another tool in the toolbox: a non-invasive blood test called HerResolve.  In this episode, I'm joined by reproductive endocrinologist Dr. Mary Peavey of Atlantic Fertility in Raleigh, North Carolina, to talk about how this new test works, who may benefit from it, and whether it could help patients get the right diagnosis, the right treatment, and potentially get to pregnancy faster. It's truly an exciting discussion and breakthrough, and I am delighted to share it with you. In this episode, we cover: - What endometriosis is and why it can be an important factor in infertility - How even mild or "silent" endometriosis can affect egg quality, embryo development, implantation, ovarian reserve, and inflammation - Why endometriosis is often underdiagnosed or mistaken for unexplained infertility, and why women can go years without answers - Why laparoscopic surgery has historically been central to endometriosis diagnosis and how that can contribute to diagnostic delays - How HerResolve works and how this non-invasive blood test may help clinicians identify patients who may have endometriosis - How identifying endometriosis may help guide fertility treatment decisions, including treatment after failed embryo transfers - When patients with unexplained infertility or suspected endometriosis may want to ask their fertility doctor about testing and evaluation Resources Read the show notes on Dr. Aimee's website Atlantic Fertility's website HerResolve endometriosis blood test by HerAnova The Egg Whisperer Show - Subscribe on YouTube The Egg Whisperer Show on Spotify Would you like to learn more about IVF?

I use Depot Lupron in my practice quite a bit for patients who have implantation issues, mostly related to endometriosis. We can also use it for women who have fibroid uterus, adenomyosis, as well. Tune in, and I hope you get a chuckle just like I do when I share this stuff with you. Today on the Egg Whisperer Show Podcast, I'm sharing about the 10 things that you need to know to survive Depot Lupron. Think of this as your Depot Lupron survival guide. Here is a sampling of the top 5: 1. The first thing to realize is that you have to be prepared for dryness. I'm talking like communion wafer level of dryness. We're talking about dryness in your vagina. Thank you, Depot Lupron. 2. Practice self care. 3. Mood change can occur with Depot Lupron, so you want to be prepared and be a proactive participant in what's happening. 4. Eat like an adult, not like a garbage disposal teenager. 5. Keep your eye on the prize. As one of my patients says, "My race is not done yet, but I know love conquers all eventually. I'm here for it and I'm going to fight the good fight until I'm done. You can, too. Let's go, girl." Read the full show notes on Dr. Aimee's website Do you have questions about IVF? Click here to join Dr. Aimee for The IVF Class.
