"Will it hurt?" "How long does it take?" The Truth About Egg Retrieval Day.

This is the milestone you have been working towards. 🎯 The injections are done. The Trigger Shot is in. It’s normal to feel nervous about the Egg Retrieval, but I want to reassure you: The anticipation is usually much harder than the procedure itself.

In this video, I take the mystery out of "OPU" (Oocyte Pick-Up). ✨ No stitches. ✨ No general anesthesia (usually just deep sleep/sedation). ✨ Home the same day.

Think of this not as surgery, but as the moment we finally collect the "gold" we have been growing. You are stronger than you think.

Save this to calm your nerves before your big day! 🤍

"I wish I had done this sooner."

This is the only regret we hear from women regarding fertility preservation. We never hear anyone regret having options.

The checklist above isn't about panic; it’s about preparedness. Freezing your eggs allows you to "lock in" your current ovarian reserve and quality. It transforms the pressure of the "ticking clock" into a sense of freedom.

If you check even one box on these slides, it is time to schedule a consultation. Don't let the calendar dictate your choices. Take charge of your future fertility today.

"I want kids. Just not right now." This is your backup plan. ❄️

Society loves to ask women: "When are you having kids?" But the better question is: "Are you protecting your options?"

Egg Freezing gives you the freedom to hit the pause button. ⏸️ Whether you haven't met the right person yet, are focusing on your education, or just aren't ready, you shouldn't be penalized by biology.

In this video, I break down exactly how Fertility Preservation works. It’s less scary, less invasive, and more empowering than you imagine.

"Did I miss my window?" 🪟 The Truth About Fertility After 35.

Caption: If you Google "pregnancy chances after 40," you will likely end up in a spiral of scary statistics. The internet loves to tell you what can't happen. As a fertility specialist, I want to tell you what can happen.

Advanced Age Fertility is one of the fastest-growing areas of our practice. Science has given us new tools—not just to help you conceive, but to help you have a healthy pregnancy.

In this video, I break down the real options available to you today. It’s not just about "trying harder." It’s about trying smarter with the right technology.

Does your fertile window feel less like romance and more like a scheduled shift? 🗓️

We see so many couples who are exhausted by timed in*******se. They track every hour, force intimacy when tired, and spike their stress levels (which isn't good for hormones!).

Here is the medical truth that gives you permission to relax: You do NOT need to try every single day.

The "Every Other Day" (EOD) method is just as effective for conception. Why? Because biology is on your side. 🔹 S***m viability inside the body is 3-5 days. 🔹 The egg is viable for 12-24 hours.

If you stick to an alternate-day routine during your window (e.g., Day 10, 12, 14, 16), you ensure there are always healthy s***m "waiting" for the egg. No panic. No obsession. Just consistency.

Save this post to remind yourself: Consistency > Intensity. 📌

We often hear conflicting advice about when to have a baby. Grandparents say "early," careers say "later," and the law says "not before 18/21."

So, where is the balance? 🤷‍♀️

In this video, I give you my direct recommendation on the Ideal Age for Pregnancy. We aren't just talking about when you can conceive, but when your body is strongest and most prepared for the journey of parenthood.

If you are planning your future (or your daughter's future), this is the clarity you need.

Have we been trying long enough?" 🗓️ "Am I overreacting if I book an appointment now?"

Caption: Deciding to call a fertility clinic can feel like a big, scary step. You might worry that you are being impatient, or you might fear what the doctor will find.

But here is the truth: A consultation is just a conversation. 🗣️

In this video, I break down the specific timelines for when you should seek help based on your age and symptoms. Sometimes, your body gives you signs that you shouldn't wait for the standard "one year" mark.

Stop Googling your symptoms and start getting answers. Knowing where you stand is the first step to feeling in control again.

The hardest part of a male fertility diagnosis often isn't the medical treatment; it's the feeling of helplessness.

But the truth is, male factor issues are often more responsive to lifestyle changes than female factors. You have more control here than you think. 🧠

The slides above outline the 5 biggest levers you can pull to improve s***m quality and reduce DNA fragmentation. These aren't just "healthy tips"; they are biological necessities for healthy production.

This is a team sport. Share this with your partner so you are both playing by the same playbook. It takes 90 days to see real change, so today is the best day to start.

He’s healthy. He works out. So why is it 'Male Factor'?"

Caption: You can look healthy on the outside and still face fertility challenges on the inside.

Male Infertility is often invisible. There are usually no symptoms, no pain, and no warning signs—until you try to conceive. In this video, I explain the Common Causes that we look for in the lab:

Ladies, if you have been doing all the testing yourself, send this video to your partner. It’s time to look at the whole picture. 🤝

Drop a '💙' if you agree that fertility is a team sport.

If you have been diagnosed with PCOS, your treatment plan depends entirely on ONE question: "What is your goal right now?" 🤔

In Part 2 of our PCOS Series, Dr. Vivek Kakkad explains the different paths:

path 🅰️ "I want to fix my periods & acne." We focus on lowering androgens and managing Insulin Resistance. This might involve lifestyle changes, Inositols, or hormonal regulation to protect your uterus.

Path 🅱️ "I want to get pregnant." We focus on Ovulation Induction. Since PCOS often stops eggs from releasing, we use medications (like Letrozole) to "nudge" the o***y to release an egg.

💡 Note: You can have a healthy pregnancy with PCOS. It is one of the most treatable causes of infertility.

Don't settle for "just lose weight." Get a treatment plan that fits your body.

I beat cancer. Now I want to be a mom/dad." 🤍 This is the moment we work for.

But the preparation for that moment starts before the treatment begins. Chemotherapy and radiation are lifesaving, but they can be tough on your fertility. This infographic breaks down your options for Fertility Preservation.

At our clinic, we treat these cases as medical emergencies.

- We fast-track appointments.
- We use "Random Start" protocols so women don't have to wait for a specific cycle day.
- We work directly with your oncologist to ensure safety.

If you or a loved one has just been diagnosed, please know: There is hope for your future family. We are here to help you secure it.

The name "Polycystic O***y Syndrome" is actually a bit misleading.

As I explain in this video, we follow a specific checklist called the Rotterdam Criteria. You only need 2 out of the 3 symptoms to be diagnosed.

💡 Here is the value add: This means PCOS looks different for everyone.

Your symptoms are real, even if they don't look exactly like someone else's. Stop guessing and start understanding your body's unique pattern.
