Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) for Fertility hosted by Dr. Lorne Brown of The Conscious Fertility Podcast

Ever wondered what PRP is and how it can help you on your fertility journey? Well, today, I'm excited to share a conversation all about Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy that I recently had with Dr. Lorne Brown on his Conscious Fertility Podcast. PRP is making waves in the world of fertility, and here's why you should consider it: 1. Every woman should have the opportunity to explore PRP before opting for egg donation. It might just be the key to helping you have a baby with your own eggs!  2. Wondering when to start PRP? It's all about your individual response. Depending on your age and other factors, you can start PRP before IVF, you can use it ahead of egg freezing, or you can use it during an IVF cycle. Some patients see better results after several PRP therapy treatments.  3. The magic lies in the technique! It's not a one-size-fits-all approach. I've been tracking data and seeing promising results like increased AMH levels, lower FSH levels, and higher egg quality.  4. The PRP technique matters. In my practice, I use a specialized nine-inch spinal needle, carefully targeting the ovary's cortex, aiming to impact as much surface area as possible.  5. Considering a series of treatments? It might make sense. Just like with other therapies, consistency and the right timing seem to be key for optimum results.  Remember, everyone's fertility journey is unique. PRP could be the missing piece to the puzzle for some, especially those with a high egg count or those looking to improve egg quality.  We're excited about the possibilities that PRP offers on the path to parenthood! Thank you, Lorne, for hosting me on your podcast, and for letting me talk about all things PRP. You can find The Conscious Fertility Podcastm hosted by Lorne Brown here.

Fertility Preservation Options for Cancer Patients with guest Tracy Weiss

Today on the podcast, I'm sharing part two of a two part series of interviews with the founders of The Chick Mission which is a national foundation that is working together to preserve hope, sanity, and choice for women battling cancer. They are focused on making sure that all women diagnosed with cancer have the financial support, educational information, and legislative advocacy to preserve their fertility. After personal experiences, founders Amanda Rice and Tracy Weiss came together to make sure that all cancer patients have a full life with options to grow a family, after they beat the disease. Tracy Weiss is the Executive Director of Chick Mission. She is also a cancer survivor who was diagnosed with cancer at the age 30. Her insurance company denied her claim to preserve her fertility, describing it as an ‘elective’ procedure. Tracy partnered with Amanda to start The Chick Mission to help other women facing the same challenges. Read the article on Dr. Aimee's Website.

Fertility Preservation Options for Cancer Patients with guest Amanda Rice

Today on the podcast, I'm airing part one of a two part series of interviews with the founders of The Chick Mission, which is a national foundation that is working to preserve hope, sanity, and choice for women battling cancer. And, they are focused on making sure that all women diagnosed with cancer have the financial support, educational information, and legislative advocacy to preserve their fertility. After personal experiences, founders Amanda Rice and Tracy Weiss came together to make sure that all cancer patients have a full life with options to grow a family. Today’s interview is with Amanda Rice, who is the Founder and a 3-time Cancer Survivor. The Chick Mission hatched when Amanda's fertility preservation coverage was denied by her insurance company. After chemo, radiation and long-term drug therapy, she started fertility treatment. She’s focused on helping other patients find ways to cover the costs of fertility preservation, as socioeconomic standing should not be a factor in anyone wanting to pursue having biological children after they are diagnosed with cancer.

Ask the Sperm Whisperer with Dr. Paul Turek, Male Fertility Specialist

Today on The Egg Whisperer Show Podcast, I'm honored to be joined by Dr. Paul Turek. I like to call him "The Sperm Whisperer," because he is a wealth of knowledge in all things male reproductive health.    In our discussion, we're talking about what it means to be on team "pecker checker," (his words) and why Dr. Turek feels that men are often medically underserved, as far as reproductive health goes. As he shares, women tend to be more proactive, and have a monthly cycle that allows them to be more in tune with what is going on with their bodies.    We're also talking about these interesting questions: How long should you abstain before IUI? What do you look for in healthy sperm? How can a man improve sperm quality? What can a man do to support his female partner during fertility treatment?   Thank you so much for joining me, Dr. Turek!   You can tune in to this episode on Dr. Aimee's website.   You can find Dr. Paul Turek at The Turek Clinic.   Do you have questions about IVF? Join Dr. Aimee for The IVF Class at The Egg Whisperer School. The next live class call is on Monday, October 30, 2023 at 4pm PST, where Dr. Aimee will explain IVF and there will be time to ask her your questions live on Zoom.

Genetic Counselor Explains Genetics & Hereditary Disease for Fertility Patients with Dena Goldberg

Your Genetics are a key part of my TUSHY Method (Y = Your genetics) and I'm so honored to have Dena Goldberg (also known far and wide as Dena DNA) joining me today! Some of the questions I know you have on your mind about genetics are: Nothing came back on my 23 & Me test. I'm good to go, right? Answer: Not so fast. 23&Me relies on "SNP testing," and only looks at "very specific bookmarks on very random genes." You'll want a more thorough test for preconception screening. I don't have any history of disease in my family. Do I need to do genetic testing? Answer: It's a good idea. There are syndromes such as Lynch Syndrome that are asymptomatic in 90% of people who are carriers. You'll want to know if you have those genetic markers before passing them on to your embryo and child. Can you make sure my embryo doesn't have autism? Answer: Autism is actually a description of a constellation of symptoms. So it's not an underlying condition in and of itself. There are hundreds to thousands of genetic causes to autism. We can catch some of these cases, but not all. Autism is multifactorial, meaning that many of these cases are probably caused by a combination of genetics and environment or in other words, nature and nurture together.

Sperm DNA Fragmentation Testing: The Latest Tests for Abnormal Sperm with guest Dr Ramy Ghayda

I’m delighted to have Dr. Ramy Ghayda join me today to talk about sperm, and the importance of sperm DNA Fragmentation testing and how to improve sperm health. When trying to conceive it takes both an egg and sperm cell. And, as you'll hear Dr. Ghayda explain, we now have access to more tests for male factor infertility, and they are more affordable and accessible than ever. He and I both believe it's very important for people, and fertility patients (everyone, really!) to know their options and to be educated about what they can do to improve sperm quality, to test sperm quality. This can help make the whole journey the best it can be, and be one that hopefully leads to good outcomes.  Dr. Ghayda is a reproductive urologist. He is currently an assistant professor at University Hospitals in Cleveland, Ohio and the Chief Medical Officer at Legacy, a company that is revolutionizing how men and couples test and freeze sperm, from home.
