After 4 failed IUIs, Jerilyn and her husband are moving to IVF. He has been diagnosed with male factor infertility. Jerilyn wrote in to ask The Egg Whisperer about supplements to take.  Here's what she had to say, "My husband and I have been trying to conceive for six years. We did four IUIs that didn't work and we'll be going into IVF next. What we were told is that it's male factor infertility: low sperm count and low motility. My husband has been on CoQ10 and FertilAid for men. I have some autoimmune issues. I'm wondering what supplements I should take to help have a successful IVF and healthy pregnancy." In my response, I share about the BALLS Method and make recommendations on the supplements I would suggest to my own patients.  Subscribe to my YouTube channel for more fertility tips!

In this episode, Lee writes in and asks the Egg Whisperer about Seed Cycling. She wants to know if it can be done during an IVF cycle, and how. For those of you who don't know what seed cycling is, it's the use of seeds to promote healthy estrogen and progesterone production during a menstrual cycle. My short answer? I don't see why not. I don't see the seeds as being like a supplement for estrogen or a supplement for progesterone.  If they make you feel good, they are a nice healthy snack. If you like them, I'd say, go for it. If you were a patient of mine, I wouldn't say don't eat the seeds.  Watch this full episode on YouTube.

It was such a treat to have Dr. Jenna Hua of Million Marker join me on the Egg Whisperer Show podcast yesterday. And, I’m delighted to have her back to talk more about the environment and fertility. Ever wonder about your chemical exposures? I certainly do. How to improve egg quality, sperm quality and pregnancy outcomes are always on my mind. The environment can play a role, and the test that is now available through Million Marker can help determine if chemicals or the environment are impacting your body and your fertility. We now have a way to test our exposure levels and also do something about it!  In this episode we talk about: hand sanitizer, THC, essential oils, plastics, forever chemicals, hair care products, makeup, toothpaste, toothbrushes, pots and pans and more.
