    Ep.250: Fertility Biohacks vs. Real Healing: What to Know Before You Try IVF

    If you’ve been trying to conceive for over a year and want this level of detective work on your case, apply to work with me and my team here: https://drjanelevesque.com/application/?utm_source=podcast&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=podcast_audio_captivate It takes about 5–7 minutes to complete. If we can help, we’ll invite you to a free Fertility Clarity Call with one of my team members. On that call, we’ll go through your story, see what’s been missed, and walk you through our simple 3‑step Clarify → Correct → Conceive process that’s helped over 70% of our clients finally bring home a healthy baby. Episode SummaryIf you’re seeing peptides and biohacks all over your feed and wondering what actually works, if your clinic has told you IVF is the next step and you’re not sure what you’re signing up for, or if you feel like you’re grasping at straws, this episode is for you. I’m breaking down the difference between true healing and the quick fix mindset, and what’s changed in IVF over the last few years, including ICSI, Zymot chips, and what the research says about live birth rates. We cover sperm DNA fragmentation, why both partners matter, how long testing really takes, and the questions to ask before any procedure. You’ll leave this episode knowing how to tell a quick fix from real healing and how to make confident decisions about your next step. In this episode, you’ll learn:Biohacking was built by marketers, so check whether the seller has treated real patients.No single peptide fixes a multi-system condition like endometriosis, so ask for the mechanism.Your fertility journey ends, but your healing journey doesn’t, so a protocol isn’t a finish line.ICSI and Zymot select from existing sperm and haven’t improved live birth rates in non-severe male factor.Better sperm starts with food, exercise and nutrients, and both partners need testing.Know your options and your timeline before the consultation, since testing alone takes 6 to 8 weeks. About Dr. Jane’s PracticeI’m a Naturopathic Doctor and Natural Fertility Expert. My team and I work 1:1 with couples who’ve been struggling with infertility for 1+ years to get to the root cause of their fertility issues so they can conceive and bring a healthy baby home, using advanced lab testing and personalized protocols.

    How to Know If Your Fertility Practitioner Is the Right Fit

    If you’ve been trying to conceive for over a year and want this level of detective work on your case, apply to work with me and my team here: https://drjanelevesque.com/application/?utm_source=podcast&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=podcast_audio_captivate It takes about 5–7 minutes to complete. If we can help, we’ll invite you to a free Fertility Clarity Call with one of my team members. On that call, we’ll go through your story, see what’s been missed, and walk you through our simple 3‑step Clarify → Correct → Conceive process that’s helped over 70% of our clients finally bring home a healthy baby. Episode SummaryIf you’re getting tests run but nobody is explaining your labs, if you’ve been on protocols for months and still don’t feel better, or if you’re three months in and sense something isn’t working, this episode is for you. I’m breaking down how to know whether you’re working with the right practitioner, and why a lab protocol alone isn’t enough. We cover the difference between a practitioner and a healer, what happens when companies train practitioners to use only their labs and supplements, and why brand and dose matter. I share my own story of finally feeling seen, what to expect within the first two weeks, and what to do if you can’t afford a healer. You’ll leave this episode knowing how to tell if your practitioner is the right fit. In this episode, you’ll learn:Testing is only half the job: the value is in someone who interprets your labs and explains what they mean for you.A practitioner follows a protocol, but a healer asks who you are, how patterns started, and what’s driving your choices.Brand and dose matter, because the same supplement can work well from one company and wreck your gut from another.You should feel better within the first couple of weeks, and if you’re three months in and doubting it, you’re probably right.Symptoms trace back through habits, behaviors, emotions and beliefs, so treating only the “candida” or the lab marker misses the root.Your fertility journey is your healing journey, and the right practitioner makes you feel seen, heard and understood.

    Longevity Expert Breaks Down the Basics for Your Health and Fertility

Episode SummaryIf you're going down rabbit holes trying to figure out which diet, biohack or supplement to try next, if you're trying to conceive and feel overwhelmed, or if you're ready to build healthier habits but don't know where to start, this episode is for you. I sit down with longevity expert Ronald Russell to cut through the noise and talk about the basics: why he aims for a pound of leafy greens a day, how legumes, fiber and daily bowel movements support your gut, and how fasting can help, including what I see with insulin resistance and PCOS. We also cover gratitude, sleep, and why the foundations have to come before the biohacks. You'll leave this episode knowing how to start small with one habit to add and one to remove. In this episode, you’ll learn:Eat a pound of leafy greens and cruciferous vegetables a day, plus beans and lentils, and you'll feel better within weeks.Eat produce-aisle food in its natural state, because packaged "vegan" snacks aren't healthy.Your gut is where health starts, so pooping daily, cutting soda and sweeteners, and sourcing clean produce all matter.Stop constant snacking, since spiking your insulin all day is a major drain on your body, and use an eating window or a longer fast to reset.Foundations beat biohacks: sleep, outlook, daily movement and food come first, and your fertility is built on them too.Start with one good habit in, one bad habit out, and stack habits you enjoy until they become your routine.

    EP. 247: Thyroid and Pregnancy: Tests, Timing, and Ideal Numbers

    If you’ve been trying to conceive for over a year and want this level of detective work on your case, apply to work with me and my team here: https://drjanelevesque.com/application/?utm_source=podcast&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=podcast_audio_captivate It takes about 5–7 minutes to complete. If we can help, we’ll invite you to a free Fertility Clarity Call with one of my team members. On that call, we’ll go through your story, see what’s been missed, and walk you through our simple 3‑step Clarify → Correct → Conceive process that’s helped over 70% of our clients finally bring home a healthy baby. Episode SummaryIf you think your thyroid might be the reason you're not getting pregnant, if your TSH is above 2.5 and your doctor doesn't think it's a big deal, or if you're pregnant and want to keep your thyroid on track, this episode is for you. I answer the questions I get most: how important thyroid is for fertility and pregnancy outcomes, do you need to test antibodies, what does a full thyroid panel look like, and can you lower antibodies naturally. I walk through why TSH alone isn't enough, what free T3, free T4, reverse T3, TPO and thyroglobulin tell us, and why I see thyroid as a branch, not a root. You'll also learn when to test before conception, when to recheck during pregnancy, and why I want your TSH below 2.5 through week 24. In this episode, you’ll learn:– TSH is a brain hormone, so on its own it tells you nothing about thyroid production – A full thyroid panel adds free T3, free T4, reverse T3, TPO and thyroglobulin antibodies – Your thyroid is a branch, not a root, so ask why it's off before you just stabilize it – Thyroid problems almost always point back to cortisol, nervous system or immune dysregulation – Antibodies can come down naturally, but depending on the root cause it can take up to two years – Keep TSH below 2.5 through week 24, when baby still relies on mom's thyroid About Dr. Jane’s PracticeI’m a Naturopathic Doctor and Natural Fertility Expert.

    Ep.246: How to Read a Sperm Analysis (And What "Normal" Really Means)

    If you’ve been trying to conceive for over a year and want this level of detective work on your case, apply to work with me and my team here: https://drjanelevesque.com/application/?utm_source=podcast&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=podcast_audio_captivate It takes about 5–7 minutes to complete. If we can help, we’ll invite you to a free Fertility Clarity Call with one of my team members. On that call, we’ll go through your story, see what’s been missed, and walk you through our simple 3‑step Clarify → Correct → Conceive process that’s helped over 70% of our clients finally bring home a healthy baby. Episode SummaryIf you've just gotten a sperm analysis back and were told it's fine, if you're heading into an IUI or IVF cycle without testing DNA fragmentation, or if you've been chasing better numbers with supplements alone, this episode is for you. I walk through a real case: a 30-year-old with a DNA fragmentation of 39%, normal reference ranges that are actually IVF thresholds, and the mistakes that quietly ruin a sperm test before it even starts, like collection-to-analysis time over an hour. I cover what volume, pH, motility, morphology, and viability should actually look like, why "normal" isn't optimal, and why ICSI can't fix damaged DNA no matter how good the egg is. You'll leave this episode knowing exactly what to test, what to ask your lab, and why real change starts with behavior, not supplements. In this episode, you’ll learn:A DNA fragmentation test costs a couple hundred dollars and can predict your IUI or IVF outcome before you startWHO sperm reference ranges are IVF thresholds, not what's optimal for natural conceptionSperm analyzed more than an hour after collection gives you a false result, not a real oneICSI can bypass fertilization but it cannot fix damaged sperm DNAPoor embryo development is a sperm issue just as often as it's an egg issueSperm regenerates in 70 to 90 days, so real change shows up on the next test, not this one About Dr. Jane’s PracticeI’m a Naturopathic Doctor and Natural Fertility Expert.

On that call, we’ll go through your story, see what’s been missed, and walk you through our simple 3‑step Clarify → Correct → Conceive process that’s helped over 70% of our clients finally bring home a healthy baby. Episode SummaryIf you're getting ready for a transfer, you've had one fail, or you're wondering whether to test your embryos, this episode is for you. In Part 2 of my IVF FAQ series, I answer the transfer questions I get asked most: should you do PGT testing, is a fresh or frozen transfer better, and when is it actually safe to stop progesterone. I explain why a PGT normal embryo still isn't a guarantee. I cover what a progesterone level above 1.5 on trigger day means for your implantation window, and why stopping progesterone by the calendar instead of a lab result can put a pregnancy at risk. You'll also learn the four ways I support women through a transfer, why this is not the time to add new supplements or start a detox, and what to do next if IVF hasn't worked yet. In this episode, you’ll learn:A PGT-normal embryo rules out chromosomal issues, not every health problem.Fresh and frozen transfers have similar success rates, so how you recover after retrieval matters more.Progesterone above 1.5 on trigger day often means your implantation window has shifted.Test before you stop progesterone, because some placentas aren't ready until week 16 or later.What got you pregnant keeps you pregnant, so transfer is not the time for new supplements.A failed IVF cycle is information, not a verdict.

    Ep. 244: What I Wish Every Couple Knew Before Doing an IUI

    If you’ve been trying to conceive for over a year and want this level of detective work on your case, apply to work with me and my team here: https://drjanelevesque.com/application/?utm_source=podcast&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=podcast_audio_captivate It takes about 5–7 minutes to complete.

On that call, we’ll go through your story, see what’s been missed, and walk you through our simple 3‑step Clarify → Correct → Conceive process that’s helped over 70% of our clients finally bring home a healthy baby. Episode SummaryIf you're staring down an IUI, or you've already done a few rounds that didn't work, this episode is the conversation Dr Jane wishes every couple had before starting. The standard advice ("try for a year, then IUI, then IVF, then donor") treats fertility like a checklist. Dr Jane breaks down why that linear path fails so many couples, walks through the exact lab markers that mean IUI isn't your next right step, and shares a real case from her practice: a couple who went through eight failed IUI rounds before anyone asked why. You'll leave this episode knowing exactly what to test, what to monitor, and how to actually read the results of a cycle that didn't work. In this episode, you’ll learn:A failed IUI means the treatment was wrong, not that you failed.FSH over 12, AMH under 0.5, or a lining under 7mm are reasons to skip IUI entirely.Poor sperm morphology can quietly sink round after round of IUI.Thyroid medication rarely fixes fertility because thyroid is rarely the root cause.One IUI cycle already tells you whether the next one is worth trying.There's no universal supplement stack, only what your labs actually show.

Episode SummaryIf you're currently going through IVF, you've had rounds that failed, or you're considering it, this episode is for you. I answer the questions I get asked most: how do you know if IVF is actually your next step, how many rounds is too many, and what testing should you do beforehand. I walk through the mistakes I see most often: going in without knowing why you're not conceiving, rushing into another round without retesting what didn't work, and pushing through a cycle that was never going to succeed. You'll also learn what a properly tracked cycle should actually look like, why "normal" labs often aren't, and why detoxing after IVF isn't about a dramatic cleanse; it's about helping your body reset. Part 2 will cover the transfer and what to look for in embryo quality. In this episode, you’ll learn:IVF not working doesn't mean you're broken; it means the treatment wasn't right for you right nowKnow why you're not getting pregnant first. If it's not happening naturally, something is missing2-3 rounds should be enough if you're properly prepped; more usually means something was missedThere's no such thing as truly "normal" labs when you're struggling to conceiveA properly tracked cycle tells you what's working; without it you're guessingDetoxing after IVF just means helping your body drain and reset, not a dramatic cleanse About Dr. Jane’s PracticeI’m a Naturopathic Doctor and Natural Fertility Expert.
