  • Freezing time episode

    Listening to Katie’s story hit so personal for me. I’m 40 and just finished my 1st cycle of egg freezing with 1 viable egg. I felt so dejected at first but had to be reminded 1 is better than none. All the emotions you mentioned in your story, I felt this to my bone! I’m learning to allow my body grace and to be patient. I’m looking to do another cycle, but until then, I’m proud of my 1 frozen egg ♥️

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Fertility Q&A: DHEA, TTC Skincare, Lean PCOS, Semen Analysis and more
Q: How should someone approach a semen analysis that is labeled 'normal' but has subtle concerns in specific parameters?
Look beyond the overall label and examine each parameter (motility, morphology) against reference ranges; sometimes the lowest end of normal still masks subtle issues that could impact fertility, so a deeper review with your clinician is warranted.
Fertility Q&A: DHEA, TTC Skincare, Lean PCOS, Semen Analysis and more
Q: How do varicoceles contribute to fertility outcomes, even if semen analysis looks normal?
Varicoceles can affect sperm function beyond standard semen parameters; it's important to review individual morphology and functional tests, and consider repair if the embryologist highlights concerns, though not every case requires intervention.
Fertility Q&A: DHEA, TTC Skincare, Lean PCOS, Semen Analysis and more
Q: Regarding type 4 cervical mucus, what does it mean if it appears twice in a month while TTC?
Type 4 mucus signals high estrogen and can occur multiple days around the cycle; it does not necessarily indicate ovulation, and in the context of fertility treatment, cervical mucus patterns can be affected by medications like Clomid or Letrozole, so interpretation should be in context of the full cycle and treatment plan.
Fertility Q&A: DHEA, TTC Skincare, Lean PCOS, Semen Analysis and more
Q: Lean PCOS: is this strictly a hormone imbalance or a metabolic issue, and what can be done before TTC?
Lean PCOS often involves both hormonal imbalance and metabolic factors; evaluating insulin resistance and considering interventions like metformin if indicated, along with ovulation induction strategies such as Letrozole, may improve outcomes; lifestyle and targeted investigations are important before TTC.
Fertility Q&A: DHEA, TTC Skincare, Lean PCOS, Semen Analysis and more
Q: Quick one here. Can you use retinol skincare when TTC?
Retinol is okay to use while trying to conceive, but it should be stopped when pregnancy is achieved to avoid any potential exposure during early development.
