Let’s talk about AMH - one of the most misunderstood numbers in fertility.
If you’ve been told your AMH is low, it’s easy to feel discouraged. But here’s the truth:
Outside of IVF, AMH is not the make-or-break number you’ve been led to believe.

AMH (Anti-Müllerian Hormone) reflects how many follicles are active in your ovaries right now.
That’s why it’s helpful in IVF - it predicts how your ovaries might respond to medication.
But it doesn’t tell us whether your eggs are healthy, whether you’re ovulating, or whether you can get pregnant naturally.

Many women with low AMH conceive naturally.
Many with high AMH still struggle.
Because fertility isn’t one number - it’s a whole picture.

So if you’ve ever been told your AMH is “too low,” please know: it’s not game over.
There are so many things you can do that actually influence how your ovaries function and how your body ovulates.

‘You’re fine’ isn’t good enough when you’re trying to conceive.

Low testosterone affects far more than s*x drive - it impacts s***m, mood, energy, confidence, and overall fertility.

Aim for optimal, not ‘within range.’

Most people don’t realize it - but your oral microbiome and your s***m are connected.

Research shows gum disease and oral inflammation can actually affect s***m quality and even fertility.

So if you’re working on your reproductive health, don’t forget to check your dental health too.

Hope to see you there!

Feeling fearful that you may never be able to grow your family or that you are "too old" to conceive? Or, are you doing "all the things" for your fertility - the CoQ10, acupuncture, quitting coffee, etc. - and you still haven't been able to conceive and don't know why? Are you feeling overwhelmed by the whole fertility process?

Fear and overwhelm are common companions many times on a fertility journey. However, there are ways to navigate these feelings and find empowerment on your fertility journey. In this webinar, Dr. Laurie Terzo will help lead you through her five pillars for overcoming fear and overwhelm. These practical five pillars can be utilized no matter where you are at in your fertility to help you move through with a more relaxed and hopeful mindset. As part of this webinar, she'll also lead you through a powerful technique, called EFT/Tapping, which you will be able to use on your own moving forward. EFT is a holistic, evidence-based method that combines elements of acupressure with cognitive and emotional therapy.

Groundbreaking! New blood test to identify risk of pre-eclampsia, the leading cause of maternal death.

The Food and Drug Administration has approved a blood test that can identify pregnant women at severe risk for preeclampsia, a high blood pressure disorder that can develop during pregnancy and is a leading cause of maternal death worldwide. Roughly one in 25 pregnancies in the U.S. is affected by preeclampsia, according to the CDC. Stephanie Sy spoke with Dr. Ravi Thadhani about the test.

Fascinating 5-part podcast series that is really well done that some may be interested in:

https://www.nytimes.com/2023/06/22/podcasts/serial-the-retrievals-yale-fertility-clinic.html

Heads up: this could be triggering podcast to some as it is a heartbreaking story and explores a wider topic of how women are not listened to and blamed many times in a medical setting.

"The patients in this story came to the Yale Fertility Center to pursue pregnancy. They began their I.V.F. cycles full of expectation and hope. Then a surgical procedure called egg retrieval caused them excruciating pain.

Some of the patients screamed out in the procedure room. Others called the clinic from home to report pain in the hours that followed. But most of the staff members who fielded the patients’ reports did not know the real reason for the pain, which was that a nurse at the clinic was stealing fentanyl and replacing it with saline.

From Serial Productions and The New York Times, The Retrievals is a five-part narrative series reported by Susan Burton, a veteran staff member at “This American Life” and author of the memoir “Empty.”
Burton details the events that unfolded at the clinic, and examines how the patients’ distinct identities informed the way they made sense of what happened to them in the procedure room. The nurse, too, has her own story, about her own pain, that she tells to the court. And then there is the story of how this all could have happened at the Yale clinic in the first place.

Throughout, Burton explores the stories we tell about women’s pain. How do we tolerate, interpret and account for it? What happens when pain is minimized or dismissed?"

From Serial Productions. Dozens of women seeking to become mothers came to a fertility clinic at Yale. A five-part narrative series explores the shocking events that unfolded there. Episode 1 arrives on Thurs, June 29.
