Preparing for an embryo transfer is not just any ‘ol “IVF appointment.” It’s an emotional milestone that holds many hopes, fears, and iterations of your future at once 🫂

The “before” phase is about gentle preparation, not perfection. Nourishing meals, rest, hydration, taking your meds on time, and any movement that feels good to your body are more than enough.

The “after” phase is about care and protection for your body AND your heart.

Swipe through this simple before-and-after guide to prepare for an embryo transfer 🧡

January is Cervical Health Awareness Month!

Your cervix may be small, but it plays a big role in your overall health. Pap tests, HPV testing, and the HPV vaccine can catch changes early and prevent most cervical cancers before they start.

Halle Berry’s recent comments weren’t just about one bill, they spotlight a much larger issue in women’s health.

When access to menopause care and hormone support is dismissed, it reinforces a long-standing pattern of women’s symptoms being minimized or ignored. And midlife health impacts everything: mood, sleep, fertility, long-term metabolic health, and overall quality of life.

Women deserve informed clinicians, insurance coverage that reflects real needs, and healthcare systems that take hormonal transitions seriously.

Advocacy matters, and conversations like this push the system forward.

Egg retrieval is a major milestone, but it’s also a major moment for your body. 💛

After stimulation, your hormones begin to settle, your ovaries start to calm down, and your system shifts out of “treatment mode.” It’s completely normal to feel bloated, crampy, tired, or a little emotionally off for a few days. Your body is simply recalibrating after working incredibly hard.

Recovery isn’t the “quiet part” of IVF, it’s an essential part of the process. Rest, hydrate, nourish yourself, and listen to your body as it comes back into balance.
Every step after retrieval is still forward progress. 🌿✨

December is HIV/AIDS Awareness Month 💙 but did you know living with HIV doesn't mean giving up on parenthood? Because not a lot of people do…

With modern treatment, people with HIV can safely have biological children with virtually no risk (less than 1%!) of transmission 🎉

The stigma is outdated, the science has evolved, and your dreams of building a family CAN happen 🐣 with the right treatment of course!

The article really highlights how much misinformation exists around birth control. Many people are concerned about side effects, but they rarely hear that birth control also helps manage chronic reproductive disorders. It’s not just for contraception, and there are so many types and doses that can be tailored to each person. This is exactly why I chose to show up on social media, to help bring clarity to conversations that impact women every day. 🤍

Supporting a friend through fertility treatment can feel tricky, but your care and understanding make a huge difference 🫂

But it can be a tricky area to navigate if you've never experienced it yourself. Here are my suggestions from my point-of-view in the process:
👂 Listen more than you speak; sometimes people just need to be heard
🥳 Celebrate small wins, every step matters!
❌ Avoid unsolicited advice or comparisons
🫶 Offer practical support like meals, errands, or a cozy night in

And always remember that empathy, patience, & presence are the best gifts you can give 💌 in all areas of your life!

Fibroids can be managed in ways that protect fertility, but the right approach depends on size, location, and symptoms

For some, balancing hormones, reducing inflammation, and supporting liver and gut health can slow fibroid growth ❤️‍🩹

For others, surgical options like a myomectomy may be the best next step.

The goal isn’t just to “get rid of fibroids”. It’s to create a healthier uterine environment for conception and pregnancy 🐣
