  2. The BMI and Fertility (and why I hate it so so so much)

    May 21

    The BMI and Fertility (and why I hate it so so so much)

    The BMI is being used to decide who gets access to fertility treatment. Clinics turn people away. Insurance denies coverage. And it is happening based on a number that cannot distinguish muscle from fat, was never validated against reproductive outcomes, and was built on data that excluded women entirely. In this episode, Kerry gets personal about her own long and frustrating history with the BMI chart and unpacks the real story behind this 200-year-old tool: its origins, its documented racial and sex biases, and why the research is actively calling for change in how fertility clinics apply it. She also brings in an Ayurvedic lens on body constitution and ojas, and why the body types most often turned away by BMI cutoffs may actually be the most constitutionally resourced for fertility. If a number on a chart has ever made you feel like you do not belong in a fertility clinic, this episode is for you. What we cover: Where the BMI actually came from (and who it was built to measure)Why it is considered both racist and sexist by designHow Ayurvedic body constitution challenges the one-size-fits-all modelOjas: what Ayurveda has always understood about fertile bodiesWhat the current research says about BMI cutoffs in IVF clinicsPractical steps if a BMI number is blocking your careRead the full blog post + resources: https://fertilebodyyoga.com/blog/bmi-and-fertility-and-why-i-hate-the-bmi/ Resources Devlin, Keith. “Top 10 Reasons Why the BMI Is Bogus.” NPR, July 4, 2009. https://www.npr.org/2009/07/04/106268439/top-10-reasons-why-the-bmi-is-bogus “Opinion: Women With Obesity Are Often Restricted From IVF.

  8. You Do Not Need to Go It Alone: Mental Health and the Fertility Journey with Charlynn Ruan

    You Do Not Need to Go It Alone: Mental Health and the Fertility Journey with Charlynn Ruan

    In this conversation, clinical psychologist Charlynn Ruan and Kerry discusses the intricate relationship between mental health and fertility. She highlights the psychological challenges faced by individuals on their fertility journey, including shame, self-blame, and the emotional toll of medical procedures. The discussion emphasizes the importance of psychological support, effective communication in relationships, and the need for specialized therapy to navigate the complexities of fertility. Charlene also addresses the societal pressures on women and the need for men to engage in the process, advocating for a more balanced approach to mental health and fertility support. Takeaways Fertility journeys often require psychological support due to emotional challenges. High-functioning women may experience shame and self-blame during fertility struggles. Therapists often lack training in fertility-related psychological issues. Couples should seek therapy together to navigate the emotional rollercoaster of fertility. Support systems are crucial for individuals undergoing fertility treatments. Delayed grief can occur after successful pregnancies due to unprocessed emotions. Communication styles between partners can impact relationship dynamics during fertility challenges. Men often need encouragement to seek therapy and support during the fertility process. Setting clear boundaries and responsibilities can help alleviate stress in relationships. Therapy can provide a safe space to express feelings without judgment.
