Today we will discuss egg freezing. Now, why would somebody freeze their eggs?

🔹Egg freezing offers a proactive approach to family planning. It empowers individuals to take control of their reproductive health, providing a viable option for preserving fertility.

🔹The age at which a woman chooses to freeze her eggs plays a pivotal role in the success of future pregnancies. Younger women typically have healthier, more viable reproductive eggs or gametes. By opting for egg freezing at a younger age, individuals are ensuring that the eggs used for pregnancy down the line are of the highest quality.

Today we will be discussing insulin resistance. We hear about it all of the time, but what is it? And how it is related to fertility?

🔹Insulin resistance occurs when the body’s cells do not respond normally to insulin. This forces the body to produce more insulin to maintain normal blood sugar levels. Over time, this can progress to prediabetes and type 2 diabetes.

🔹Common causes include excess visceral fat, frequent sugar and refined carbohydrates, physical inactivity and low muscle mass, poor sleep and chronic stress, and inflammation and medical conditions.

I’ve listed some key ways to improve insulin sensitivity above.

❗️Why does this matter for fertility?❗️
It can disrupt ovulation, affect hormone balance, and is associated with miscarriage risk. 💥Improving insulin sensitivity can restore ovulation and improve fertility outcomes.💥

In honor of Women’s Health Month, I will be doing an educational series on a variety of topics related to women’s health. Feel free to follow along and let’s get started! 🤩

🔹What is AMH?🔹
AMH, or your Anti-Müllerian Hormone, is produced by granulosa cells in ovarian follicles. It provides an estimate of ovarian reserve. As women age, both AMH levels and visible follicles decline. Higher AMH levels are seen in women with many follicles, while lower AMH levels are associated with fewer remaining follicles or approaching menopause. Get your AMH tested with us today!

Proud moment — my daughter Natasha Zouves has launched a new podcast called The Truth of the Matter.

Her first episode looks at some shocking government experiments that most people have never heard about, including radioactive oatmeal given to children and chemicals sprayed over St. Louis neighborhoods.

It’s powerful, eye-opening work that I believe everyone should hear. Please take a moment to watch and share her first episode here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G_FRM3Gm46M

Mother's Day can be complicated, emotional, triggering for a number of reasons. Wanted to share this excerpt on what this day can mean for women struggling with infertility, in recognition of how very hard this day can be for people who have had a difficult road.

"So even though her arms are empty,
She can still be a mother too;
So say a special Happy Mother's Day
For those waiting for their dreams to come true"
(source unknown).

There are so many paths and ways to build a family, all are valid. Wishing you a wonderful Mother's Day, and thinking of you no matter where you are on your journey.
