• The Truth About Abnormal Embryos (Should You Discard Them?) with guest Meaghan Doyle

  I'm so delighted to have Meaghan Doyle back on the show today to talk about the truth about abnormal embryos. Meaghan is a genetic counselor, and founder of DNAide, where she specializes in infertility, preimplantation genetic testing, and preconception genetic counseling. In this discussion, Meaghan and I are talking about the different kinds of embryo testing, what genetic test results should be used for, and why all fertility patients need to ask for reports on "abnormal" embryos. The truth is that sometimes, patients are told that their embryos are abnormal but never learn much more about the embryo itself. In some situations, those abnormal embryos can become healthy pregnancies and healthy, live babies, so it's important to learn as much as you can about all of the results of the genetic testing done on your embryos. To set the stage for this conversation, I asked Meaghan what it means to genetically test an embryo, and here's what she explained: "It means that we've taken a sample from the outer layer of the embryo, usually a few cells, and sent that sample to a genetic testing lab. And there's actually a few different types of genetic testing that can be done on that sample. Generally, when we say an embryo has had genetic testing, we're referring to a test called PGT-A. And so when we say an embryo has been genetically tested, usually that's what we're referring to." So what happens when an embryo comes back as "abnormal," and what can you do if it happens to you? Tune in to hear Meaghan explain. Thank you for joining me, Meaghan!

• Tips for Top Mental Health for Fertility Patients with guest Dr. Anna Glezer

  Today I'm joined by Dr. Anna Glezer, MD and we are talking all about how to stay in top mental health as a fertility patient.    Fertility patients know that treatment feels like being on a roller coaster. It's a time that can be full of optimism and disappointment, and because it can feel isolating, I include "Therapist" in my foundations of building your own Fertility TEAM (Therapist, Eating healthy and Exercise, Acupuncture, Mindfulness and Meditation are the basics).   I love that Dr. Glezer explains how to approach the whole picture of mental health: getting support, taking good care of yourself, getting enough sleep, finding someone to talk to, eating well, doing some physical activity, and finding an integrative psychologist to work with if that feels right. As you'll hear her say, "For anyone who's listening, who might be having a little bit of a hard time with their emotional and psychological health: you're not alone. This is really common. And you should absolutely reach out to get the help that you need." Read the full transcript on Dr. Aimee's website. Do you have questions about IVF?Click here to join Dr. Aimee for The IVF Class.

• What is IUI? History of IUI and Explanation of How IUI Works with guest Dr. Geoffrey Sher

  Dr. Geoffrey Sher is back, and we are talking about Intrauterine Insemination, or IUI. In 1982, Dr. Sher and his colleagues were the first to wash sperm, and then put it through a centrifuge process. After an incubation period, they used a catheter to inject the sperm into the uterine cavity of a patient. He's a true pioneer, and this was the first time IUI had been done!. I know you will enjoy learning more about IUI from him. We're sharing about how IUI works, and why it's recommended for some patients. We also discuss the differences between IUI and IVF, and when you might pick one over the other.

• ReceptivaDX Test and How it Can Help You with guest Dr. Bruce Lessey

  I'm so excited to have Dr. Bruce Lessey of ReceptivaDX join me on the podcast. Dr. Lessey has dedicated his research life to studying the lining of the uterus and more specifically, how to help embryos stick better. His research led to the discovery of the role of BCL-6 in the lining of the uterus as a diagnostic test patients can have done by their doctors to guide them toward the best protocol for transfer success. The test isn't for women just going through IVF either. This test can also be done to help women get an endometriosis diagnosis without going through a laparoscopy surgery. ⁠ ⠀ ⠀⁠ In addition to being a Fertility Doctor at The Fertility Center of the Carolinas, in Greenville SC, Dr. Lessey is also the scientific advisor for Cicero DX. His work on identifying BLC6 became the key component of the Receptivadx test. ⁠ ⠀ ⠀⁠ I'm delighted to have him on the show! Many IVF patients have benefited greatly from the Receptivadx test, and I'm looking forward to asking him a lot of questions about his work. ⁠ Read the full show notes and transcript on Dr. Aimee's website Find out more about ReceptivaDX here: https://receptivadx.com/ Would you like to learn more about IVF?Click here to join Dr. Aimee for The IVF Class.
