Why I throw Egg Freezing Parties
I started throwing Egg Freezing parties as a fun way for people to learn about fertility. There is humor. There is honest talk. Mostly, I throw them because I want every person to be empowered with knowledge about their fertility. It's really as simple as that. Egg Freezing parties are safe and surgery-free gatherings of women (and sometimes men) to learn more about the process of freezing your eggs (or sperm). Beyond that, we talk in general about fertility and how every woman (and man) can take a proactive role in preserving theirs. I started Egg Freezing parties for a simple reason. Older women were in my office struggling with fertility only to wish they had known more when they were younger. Had someone told them to get their fertility levels checked and to consider the option of preserving their eggs they most certainly would have. I don't want to hear years from now that women wished they'd known more about their fertility. This is what drives me to throw parties to make sure everyone knows they have options! I'm an egg rescuer, egg whisperer and fertility myth buster! Read the full transcript and show notes on Dr. Aimee's website. Do you have questions about Egg Freezing?

Egg Thawing: What Happens When it's Time to Unfreeze Your Precious Eggs
Egg freezing is IVF without the F. You go through a standard cycle of In Vitro Fertilization in which you take hormone shots that stimulate the growth of eggs. A doctor like me then extracts your eggs through a simple surgical procedure, and I work with an embryologist to preserve your eggs in liquid nitrogen until you're ready to use them. So the big question is what happens now that you're ready to use your eggs? In other words, what are the steps towards fertilization (or as I like to say, what the F?) Step 1. Locate Your Eggs Step 2: Decide if you want to unfreeze all your eggs. Step 3. Complete Your Preconception Testing (follow the TUSHY Method) Step 4: Complete Your Infectious Disease Labs Step 5: Implantation Testing Step 6: Make Embryos (and decide if you want to do genetic testing on your embryos) Step 7: Decide Whether You Want to Transfer Fresh or Frozen Embryos Click here to get the full show notes and transcript Would you like to learn about Egg Freezing?Click here to join Dr. Aimee for The Egg Freezing Class.

The TUSHY Method: Everything You Wish You Knew Before Trying to Conceive
As we embark on a new year, I'm excited to delve into the basics of fertility care with all of you. Whether you're just curious, have set a resolution to prioritize your reproductive health this year, or you've been on this journey for a while, I think it's always great to go back to the basics that I share with my own patients. This week, I'm thrilled to (re)introduce The TUSHY Method - 5 essential tests to have done when you're seeking a diagnosis. What does TUSHY stand for? T is for Tubes–as in your fallopian tubes. First, you need to determine whether the fallopian tubes are open. U is for Uterus. I recommend doing an ultrasound of your uterus to figure out if there are any anatomic issues affecting your ability to get pregnant. S is for Sperm, because every pregnancy is a two-part gig! Learning about your partner's or donor's sperm health is essential. H is for Hormones. I recommend testing for three different critical hormone levels to understand your fertility in a more personal way. Y is for Your genetic profile. The genes you've inherited from your biological parents can determine a lot about how your unique body behaves, and this includes your fertility and reproductive systems. Join me on this informative journey as we explore each aspect throughout the week. Knowledge is power, and understanding these fundamentals can make a world of difference in your fertility care. And for those who want to dive even deeper, you can join me for The TUSHY Class! Sign up to learn more and empower yourself on this crucial aspect of health.

How to Avoid Implantation Failure During IVF with guest Dr. Geoffrey Sher
Dr. Geoffrey Sher is joining me again, and this time we are going to talk about implantation failure during IVF. Dr. Sher is co-founder of Sher Fertility Solutions (SFS) and an internationally renowned expert in the field of assisted reproductive technology, and influential in the births of more than 17,000 IVF babies. One day I hope that I'll be able to say the same thing about myself. Over the last 30 years, he has helped fashion the entire field of ART after training under the fathers of IVF, Dr. Patrick Steptoe and Robert Edwards. He established the first private IVF program in the United States in 1982, then later expanded his practice to include several centers throughout California before founding the first Sher Fertility Solutions in Las Vegas. He's also the author of several books, In Vitro Fertilization: The ART of Making Babies, which is now in its third edition. In this episode, we're talking about implantation failure during IVF. Many times I wonder why embryos do not stick and grow. Dr. Sher is discussing the role of the endometrium, the difference between implantation and miscarriage, and the three factors he considers when advising on treatment for implantation failure. Thank you for joining me, Dr. Sher! Read the full show notes and transcript on my website. Visit Dr. Sher's website. Do you have questions about IVF?Click here to join Dr. Aimee for The IVF Class.
