The Egg Whisperer Show

Recently, Renee sent a question in to Ask The Egg Whisperer. She wanted to know if there is a way to determine egg health, prior to fertilization. Here's her question, "Is there a way to determine the health of my eggs prior to fertilization? I'm trying to conceive naturally. I have five healthy babies, but I had one with a random, non hereditary, genetic deletion. She died at six months old. And as much as I want another child, I'm terrified at the idea of possibly having another child with medical complications. Since I'm 35. Now I see the statistics on down syndrome. It makes me afraid to try for another baby."

Today on The Egg Whisperer Show podcast, I’m delighted to be joined by Dr. Dylan Cutler to talk about healing PCOS with lifestyle changes. You guys, we just said “healing” PCOS. We're not talking about treating, we're talking about healing and there's no better person to talk about this than Dr. Dylan. As a PCOS Wellness Consultant, Dr. Cutler focuses her work on nutrition , lifestyle changes, and meditation. She encourages patients to add more stress management to their routine, to get exercise, and to get away from the diet culture mentality that so many people with PCOS have been conditioned into.

Dr. Ramy Ghayda is back today for the Fertility Expert Series. He and I are talking all about how men can test, freeze and store sperm. His company, Legacy, is doing really great things, for sperm freezing. And, at the same time you freeze your sperm, you can get an analysis and sperm fragmentation testing. The magic of this service is that it allows men to collect sperm from home, and then send it off to a lab. From there, it can be used for IVF, or it can be frozen and stored for later use. Tune in to learn more about Dr. Ghayda and learn all about sperm. Follow on Apple Podcasts Follow on Spotify Subscribe to my YouTube channel for more fertility tips!

PCOS stands for polycystic ovary syndrome. Many people interpret it to mean you have big cysts on your ovaries, but that's not true at all. When I hear PCOS I think of it as a call to, &ldquoPlease Confirm this Ovary Syndrome”. So much is misunderstood about PCOS! Women are often told, “oh you don’t need to worry about it until you’re ready to have babies.” That could not be further from the truth. Today on the podcast, I'm talking about 5 novel treatments for PCOS. Read the full show notes on Dr. Aimee's website. Subscribe to my YouTube channel for more fertility tips!

Recently, a 43 year old listener sent in a question about how many embryos (statistically) she would need to freeze to have a significant chance at a live birth. Here's her question, "Statistically, how many embryos (day two or day three) would a 43 year old woman have to freeze to have one live birth? I know that everyone is different, but I'm trying to get a sense of math and attrition rate. I am 43, almost 44. AMH is 0.4. I have DOR and Hashimoto's, and I'm being treated by an endocrinologist and functional doctor because of my DOR. My RE has recommended that we freeze day two embryos. I'm trying to see what I would need to bank to reach a statistically significant chance of having a live birth." You can tune in for my full answer, along with the answer to other questions.

Joyce sent in a great question to Ask The Egg Whisperer. Here's what she asked, "Do you think an Estradiol level of 3,800 right before retrieval is too high? Will it affect egg quality?" My short answer: First, an Estradiol level of 3,800 doesn't worry me at all. I would make sure to ask your doctor, "what are my risks of having moderate to severe OHSS and what can I do to not have that?" I would also ask them for an emergency number in case you are feeling crummy and need some help and assistance. You can tune in for more information about OHSS and treatment, and you can also hear the answers to other listener submitted questions.  Follow on Apple Podcasts Follow on Spotify   Subscribe to my YouTube channel for more fertility tips!
