Episode SummaryIn this episode, I break down uterine immunology - what it actually means, why implantation is an immune process, and how immune imbalance inside the uterus can block pregnancy even when standard autoimmune labs look “normal.” I walk you through a complex case of recurrent IVF failure, thick uterine lining, polyps, and persistent inflammation to show you how I think through immune mapping, methylation, coagulation, iron overload, infection panels, and male partner involvement. An “angry uterus” is not random, the immune system activates in response to something. If you’ve been told everything looks fine but pregnancy still isn’t happening, this may be the missing piece. In this episode, you’ll learn:The immune system's role in embryo acceptance and implantationCommon signs and symptoms of uterine immunology issuesThe significance of inflammation, autoimmunity, and environment in fertilityHow to interpret testing for autoimmune markers, inflammation, and immune mappingThe importance of treating both partners and addressing the microbiomeConnections between diet, toxins, methylation, and immune regulationCase examples illustrating complex fertility challengesPractical steps to assess and support uterine health for a successful pregnancy About Dr. Jane’s PracticeI’m a Naturopathic Doctor and Natural Fertility Expert.

We also cover what’s evolving in IVF (PGT accuracy, protocol intensity, low-stim approaches) and her updated book, Yes, You Can Get Pregnant, revised edition. In this episode, you’ll learn:Practical steps women can take before trying to conceiveThe impact of age and lifestyle on fertility today versus a decade agoThe importance of comprehensive diagnostics beyond hormones and traditional testingThe role of environmental toxins, digital lifestyle, and circadian rhythm in reproductive healthDeep dive into IVF protocols, genetic testing, and the limitations of current reproductive technologies About Dr. Jane’s PracticeI’m a Naturopathic Doctor and Natural Fertility Expert.

    EPISODE SUMMARY: Too many couples are promised a fast track to pregnancy through IVF, only to end up more confused, depleted, and heartbroken. In this episode, Katie and I break down what IVF was originally designed for and why it cannot override inflammation, poor sperm DNA integrity, blood sugar dysfunction, or immune imbalance. We discuss the emotional toll on both partners and why proper testing changes the trajectory. Fertility is not separate from your overall health, it is a reflection of it. ABOUT DR.

    Ep. 197: From Stillbirth to a Healthy Baby - David & Melody’s Fertility Success Story

    EPISODE SUMMARY: In this episode, I sit down with my patients, David and Melody, a couple whose story spans recurrent pregnancy loss, the stillbirth of their son at 37 weeks, and the long road back to hope. We talk candidly about what it took to keep moving forward through grief, why “simple fixes” and generic timelines weren’t enough, and how individualized care and real-time data helped us uncover what had been missed. We also discuss how they navigated adoption alongside their fertility journey, what shifted in their bodies and mindset before their healthy pregnancy, and why they chose to write their book, The Process of the Suddenly, while still in the middle of their story. It is a profound honor to walk this journey with my patients, to problem-solve through the setbacks, to celebrate the breakthroughs, and ultimately to witness the moment they hold their baby in their arms. Hearing Melody’s birth story and seeing their daughter was nothing short of magical. If you are in the middle of your own uphill climb, I hope their story reminds you that healing is possible and that your body is capable of more than you’ve been led to believe. ABOUT DR.

    Ep. 196: Autoimmunity & Infertility: What Your Body Is Trying to Tell You - With Dr. Elissa

    EPISODE SUMMARY: In this episode, I sit down with my practitioner Dr. Elissa to unpack how autoimmune disease impacts fertility, pregnancy outcomes, and implantation. We break down what ANA and ENA testing really means, the role of the gut and vaginal microbiome in immune regulation, and why so many women are told their labs are “normal” when their bodies are clearly struggling. We also explore the deeper patterns behind autoimmunity, drawing on Dr. Gabor Maté’s work - where chronic stress, self-abandonment, and broken boundaries often show up as immune dysfunction. If you’ve felt dismissed or know there’s more to your fertility story, this episode will help you connect the dots. ABOUT DR.

Lab testing is crucial for understanding fertility issues related to autoimmunity. The immune system's dysregulation can significantly impact implantation and pregnancy. Chronic stress and lifestyle factors can trigger autoimmune responses.
