    Proven Sleep Hacks That Optimize Reproductive Health and Banish Poor Sleep For Good

    Proven Sleep Hacks That Optimize Reproductive Health and Banish Poor Sleep For Good

    We’re digging into how to optimize sleep to improve fertility.
    Good sleep is the cornerstone of optimal fertility. However, so many of us are struggling with sleep.
    Whether it's falling asleep, waking up at night or feeling tired all day.
    And sleep aids are a bandaid and do not provide the restorative sleep needed for reproductive health.
    The good news is there are targeted strategies that help to improve your sleep.
    Sleep hygiene is imperative, but it’s more than a consistent bedtime routine and sleeping in a clutter-free dark room.
    When we address the biochemical reasons why sleep is disordered in the first place, our sleep comes back online.
     
    In today’s episode, you’ll learn:
    1) Why sleep is essential for someone who is TTC
    2) The link between adrenal insufficiency and sleep (i.e. if your cortisol is high before bed, you’ll have trouble falling asleep)
    3) Blood sugar imbalance and why poor sleep impacts your blood sugar the entire next day (i.e. how to stop the vicious cycle)
    4) Hormone imbalance and the impact on sleep
    5) Supplement and diet/lifestyle strategies to optimize your sleep

    How To Know When Or If To Use Bioidentical Hormones When TTC

    How To Know When Or If To Use Bioidentical Hormones When TTC

    We’re digging into bioidenticals and why this matters when you are TTC.
    When I was diagnosed with POF/POI at 28, I was told that I needed to get hormone replacement therapy right away to protect my bones, prevent osteoporosis, and protect my heart.
    So I took a synthetic form of hormone replacement therapy for years.
    Then, I discovered that the root cause of my infertility was food sensitivity, gut infection, and chronic stress.
    Many of my chronic health issues went away because I committed to diet and lifestyle changes.
    I stopped taking hormone replacement therapy because of the negative side effects of synthetic hormones.
    But I know I still needed support with my hormones.
    Enter bioidentical hormones.
    You may be wondering, “Can I use bioidenticals if I am TTC?"
    They can be a good addition to your fertility toolkit...but they need to be used at the right time (lifestyle changes need to be prioritized first before we take the hormones).
    Because bioidenticals alone are not the answer, but they can be part of the solution.
    I'm excited to welcome Dr. Daved Rosensweet. Dr. Rosensweet is the founder of The Menopause Method, creator of BRITE, creator of I Wonder, Doctor, and the author of Happy Healthy Hormones.
     
    In this episode, you'll learn:
    1) Why adding bioidentical hormones can be part of the TTC journey
    2) The difference between bioidentical and synthetic hormones
    3) The final word on the controversy surrounding hormone replacement therapy and the increased risk of cancer (We discuss the 2009 study - he breaks it all down)
    4) Mistakes we see with hormone replacement therapy and how you can avoid them

    How To Select The Right Prenatal When You Are TTC

    How To Select The Right Prenatal When You Are TTC

    We’re digging into how to select the right prenatal as you prepare for your baby.
    As we prepare for pregnancy success, a prenatal is an essential part of our fertility toolkit.
    However, not all prenatal supplements are created equal in terms of quality, nutrients, and delivery systems.
    There can be a lot of confusion, and buying a prenatal on Amazon is never a good idea.
    Should your prenatal have folic acid or methylfolate?
    Is iron really a good idea in a prenatal or can it lead to complications?
    What about Vitamin A (we discuss the studies) and should your prenatal contain iodine?
    So how do we know how to select the right prenatal?
     
    In this episode, you'll learn:
    1) Why it is so important to ensure your prenatal has methylated folate rather than folic acid. (Plus, what you need to know if you have the MTHFR gene variant. Hint 60-80% of the population has it.)
    2) How much choline we need when we are TTC
    3) The importance of vitamin A during pregnancy (i.e. we discuss testing and why a vegan/vegetarian diet may require supplementation)
    4) Does your prenatal contain iodine? Many of us that consume a Western diet and are deficient in iodine (i.e. required for thyroid production, which is essential for pregnancy success)
    5) Why we don’t want iron in our prenatal (i.e. supplementing iron in an iron-sufficient or iron-overloaded person can lead to pre-term delivery, preeclampsia, gestational diabetes, inflammation, and oxidative stress)

    How To Address Men's Reproductive Health (It’s a myth sperm doesn't decline with age!)

    How To Address Men's Reproductive Health (It’s a myth sperm doesn't decline with age!)

    We’re digging into male factor fertility diagnosis and how to optimize pregnancy success.
    Although we specialize in complex cases such as low AMH, high FSH, diminished ovarian reserve and premature ovarian insufficiency, many couples are coming to us with both female and male factor infertility.
    The Fab Fertile Method effectively addresses both male and female fertility conditions.
    That is why we coach couples. It is not only about getting the female healthy for pregnancy – we must include the male partner to increase the chances of getting pregnant naturally.
    So whether there is poor semen count, low motility, DNA fragmentation or low morphology, there are always specific tips to improve male fertility.
    Remember, it is a myth that sperm does not decline with age.
     
    In this episode, you'll learn about:
    1) Functional reference ranges for the semen analysis to identify healing opportunities to achieve optimal fertility. We discuss count, motility, morphology, DNA fragmentation and more. (i.e. rushing to IVF is not the answer - in 70-80 days with targeted diet/lifestyle changes, we can see an enormous improvement in semen quality)
    2) Diet/lifestyle and the impact on male fertility (i.e. the final word on alcohol)
    3) Themes we see with male factor fertility
    4) Environmental toxins and how to reduce exposure to improve male fertility
    5) Supplement recommendations to optimize male fertility - Fab For Life Natural Fertility Collection https://fabfertile.com/collections/supplements

    Healing the Womb: The Spiritual Side of Fertility with Carolina Sotomayor

    Healing the Womb: The Spiritual Side of Fertility with Carolina Sotomayor

    We’re digging into how the womb holds emotions.
    Going through the fertility journey can bring up all kinds of emotions – sometimes all at once.
    Friends and family may not understand how you’re feeling. It’s not their fault. We need to educate those around us and surround ourselves with a support team.
    That’s why our Fab Fertile Method takes a mind, body and spirit approach to your fertility.
    Because although balancing the thyroid, optimizing blood sugar, personalizing diet and eradicating gut infections are essential for reproductive health, it’s equally important to acknowledge the chronic stress and emotional impact this journey has on our life.
    How can we start to process the grief, frustration, impatience and stuck emotions to see a positive path forward?
    And what if our womb was holding these stuck emotions?
    I’m excited to welcome Carolina Sotomayor. Carolina is a Fertility Reiki Womb Healer serving women trying to conceive.
     
    In this episode, you’ll learn:
    1) What makes the womb hold on to emotions, and how do we process grief?
    2) How do stuck emotions impact us when we are TTC?
    3) How Reiki helps to release and heal these stuck emotions

Lemonpeachy ,

Two episodes in

I’m currently struggling with secondary infertility and stumbled upon this podcast, as I manifest my next pregnancy & baby. Am now only two episodes in and already have learned SO much that I did not know before. Thank you for providing these resources.

ambar94** ,

It was okay

Most of the time at the beginning is wasted in promoting her other pages which is very annoying. I just wanted the podcast to start but she only kept saying “follow this, subscribe to that” and so on
