In today's podcast episode, I'm sharing a conversation that aired on The Liz Moody Podcast. Liz asked a ton of questions that took the interview in a lot of fun directions. Plus she'd polled her own audience for questions, and you know I LOVE a good "Ask The Egg Whisperer" session.


In this engaging episode, we dive into the increasing rates of infertility, the innovative technology of egg freezing, and provide practical advice for your fertility journey. We'll debunk common myths, share emotional support tips, and present real-life success stories. Plus, discover how you can join my monthly live IVF classes, designed to be accessible and informative.


Here's some of what we covered: 


1. Are infertility rates really going up? 
2. How technology and lifestyle changes can impact your fertility journey 
3. The best time and ways to freeze your eggs 
4. Practical tips for preconception prep and staying positive during your fertility journey
5. Super fun lightning round of "does this impact fertility?" where we talk about breast implants, non-organic food, laptop usage for men, and the sperm killing truth about some lubricants!

There are so many misconceptions about genetic screening. Unfortunately, this leads people to make uninformed decisions about testing, and it results in people just not doing enough of it. This is why I invited a fertility expert who has dedicated a lot of her research life to this very topic.


I am so excited to have Dr. Nidhee Sachdev of OC Fertility join me on The Egg Whisperer Show to talk about genetic screening. We are talking about the many misconceptions about genetic testing, why this information is so important, and why more people should be testing pre-treatment.

In this deeply personal episode, I sit down with Mary-Caitlin and Dan, a couple who navigated the challenges of PCOS and fertility treatment to welcome their son Jack. Alongside their incredible doctor, Dr. Joshua Hurwitz from Illume Fertility, we explore what it really means to face a PCOS diagnosis and how the right medical support combined with unwavering partnership can transform a difficult journey into a story of success. 
Mary-Caitlin shares her experience from being diagnosed at age 20 to enduring multiple losses before finding hope through IVF, while Dan offers a loving partner's perspective on being present through every step of the process.
Throughout our conversation, we dive into the medical realities of PCOS: from understanding it as an ovulation issue rather than an infertility diagnosis, to optimizing IVF protocols specifically for PCOS patients. Dr. Hurwitz breaks down the science behind modified natural transfer cycles, the importance of metabolic health, and exciting developments in PCOS treatment including GLP-1 medications.
