The Egg Whisperer Show

Jennifer sent in a great question to "Ask the Egg Whisperer." She is 38, and from Seattle. Here's what she wrote," Hi Fertility Queen, you are the BEST! I'm 38 years old & diagnosed with diminished ovarian reserve. I've been through 5 rounds of IVF and have 2 5AA frozen embryos right now.  My husband and I want 2 kids therefore tried to bank another embryo but the 5th round failed therefore we are moving on to a FET.  I did a mock transfer and the BCL6 from the Receptiva came back positive therefore we are doing 2 Depot Lupron shots a month apart prior to the real transfer. My environment is good (healthy eating, lots of exercise, limited toxins in our beauty and cleaning products, great therapist). I'm taking a Prenatal with folate and DHA, Vitamin D, & Vitamin E.  Are there any other supplements I should take?  I've heard NAC may be good for endometriosis. Is there anything else I can do to prepare for this transfer?  I am willing to do whatever it takes to help my pregnancy chances.  Thank you so much!" The brief answer for Jennifer is this: 1. Have you done the ERA test on the two embryos you have? 2. Do you have symptoms of endometriosis? Consider the ReceptivaDX test, as it can determine if you might have silent endometriosis.  3. What other medications does your doctor have you on in addition to Depot? Tune in to hear my recommendations, and what I do for patients in similar situations, along with my answers to ten other listener questions.

I’m delighted to have Dr. Ramy Ghayda join me today to talk about sperm, and the importance of sperm DNA Fragmentation testing and how to improve sperm health. When trying to conceive it takes both an egg and sperm cell. And, as you'll hear Dr. Ghayda explain, we now have access to more tests for male factor infertility, and they are more affordable and accessible than ever. He and I both believe it's very important for people, and fertility patients (everyone, really!) to know their options and to be educated about what they can do to improve sperm quality, to test sperm quality. This can help make the whole journey the best it can be, and be one that hopefully leads to good outcomes.  Dr. Ghayda is a reproductive urologist. He is currently an assistant professor at University Hospitals in Cleveland, Ohio and the Chief Medical Officer at Legacy, a company that is revolutionizing how men and couples test and freeze sperm, from home.

In this episode of The Egg Whisperer Show, I’m joined by the amazing Dina Kupfer, CBS 13 News anchor and advocate for normalizing conversations around fertility.

We also dive into the role mental health plays in navigating fertility challenges.

Dr. Aimee invites board-certified genetic counselor Natalie Richeimer to discuss the crucial intersection of genetic counseling, IVF, and cancer. Natalie explains the role of genetic counselors in the fertility space, particularly how they assist patients in understanding their risk for genetic conditions stemming from family history, personal health, or ethnicity. Dr. Aimee and Natalie talk about the important work done by JScreen, an organization providing accessible genetic testing for cancer and carrier screening. The conversation highlights the importance of understanding whether cancer is hereditary or sporadic, the implications of genetic predispositions, and how early genetic testing can impact fertility planning and treatment options. Natalie shares insights on the different types of genetic tests available, including those for embryos, and emphasizes the evolving nature and expanding role of genetic testing in family planning. They also discuss common misconceptions about genetic testing, especially among patients with a family history of cancer, and offer practical advice on how to access genetic counseling and testing through JScreen.

Talking about your fertility when you’re over 40 is not easy, but I want women to stop apologizing for desiring a family. Times have changed. It’s okay to want a baby over 40. It’s not crazy, nor selfish.  My approach is for all of my patients to be given their best chance at a healthy pregnancy in the shortest period of time. How do we do this? It starts by not believing everything you read.  There’s an international headline I saw recently on BBC news that fertility doctors are exploiting older women and “dealing false hope”. Do I believe that fertility doctors deliver false hope? No way! I do not. Do I believe that it’s imperative to get a diagnosis before treatment, regardless of who you are and your age? Yes! Diagnosis before treatment. Please! I want my patients over 40 to understand their follicle count. Then I want them to decide if moving forward with treatment using their own eggs is the best path forward. There are so many ways to have a baby if your own body is not making it happen there are other creative paths to explore. Egg and embryo donation and adoption are a few examples.

It's a delight to have Dr. Geoffrey Sher back. He's been on the show several times, and our discussion on "How to Avoid Implantation Failure During IVF" is one of the most viewed on the channel! Today we're talking about treating Endometriosis - related infertility.  Here are some facts about Endometriosis as shared by Dr. Sher:  - Endometriosis is a condition where cells similar to the lining of the uterus (endometrium) grow outside of the uterus, in the pelvic cavity.   - It occurs in about 10% of all women and can be symptom free or may cause a wide spectrum of symptoms.   - It’s estimated that 25% - 40% of all female infertility is linked to endometriosis in some way.   - Endometriosis is a life-long condition. It cannot be completely removed or cured. While endometriosis can usually be controlled (medically or surgically), the condition itself is not curable.  - Removing endometriomas from an ovary may help with getting pregnant. Dr. Sher is also sharing information about how the endometrium begins to grow outside the uterus, and why some women remain asymptomatic, and others develop symptoms.  Read the full transcript and get more information on the website.   Visit Dr. Sher's website here.   Would you like to learn more about IVF?Click here to join Dr. Aimee for The IVF Class.
