The Egg Whisperer Show

Whether you're local to me (San Francisco) or halfway around the world, it doesn't matter. I'm sharing science-based information with you today so that you don't have to turn to Google, tarot cards, or your co-worker when it comes to fertility advice. Your situation is unique. I want you to keep that in mind. What you need may be different than someone else. What you need is based on you. In a sense, your path to fertility treatment should be as customized as your coffee order. So this is what I do with my patients. I start by getting to know them, and their fertility health. Have you been starting with you? What I mean is, do you know what your diagnosis is? Is there a clear and compelling answer for why you may not be getting pregnant? I don't believe in "unexplained infertility". There is an answer and my job is to help you find it. In this episode, you'll learn all about how to pick the best fertility treatment plan for you.

Could fibroids be affecting your fertility? And if you have them, do they always need to be removed?

How fibroids can change during pregnancy, including growth, degeneration, and potential complications.
