Join us for an enlightening episode of Egg Meets Sperm Podcast featuring the esteemed Alexandria DeVito as we delve into the intricacies of "Essential Tests for Preconception Health." Alexandria expertly navigates essential topics, emphasizing that pre-pregnancy preparation for both reproductive partners is the most effective intervention to enhance fertility and improve the chances of having a healthy baby. Your pre-pregnancy wellness reflects your health status prior to conception, typically assessed within the year beforehand. Comprehensive pre-pregnancy wellness testing includes evaluations of blood status, hormone status, immune status, metabolic status, and nutrient status. Alexandria highlights that you don’t have to wait until you try to conceive to gauge your fertility; you can measure your pre-pregnancy wellness in advance. Often, symptoms of underlying health issues emerge late in the disease process, making testing crucial for accurate assessment. She emphasizes that pre-pregnancy wellness testing is beneficial for any individual or couple planning to become pregnant (or undergo ART) within the next twelve months, although starting earlier is always advantageous. Pre-pregnancy preparation should involve both reproductive partners, as fertility is a 50/50 biological equation between the female and male partners. Alexandria underscores that biology disregards the social construct of fertility being solely a female issue, stressing the importance of shared responsibility in the fertility journey.
