  • 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: Ovulation, Recurrent Loss, IUI, PMOS, and More
Q: How should someone interpret an LH test strip vs. a temperature shift when tracking ovulation?
LH strips indicate the surge typically occurs about a day before ovulation; if you're also tracking temperature, you can better align the moment of ovulation since the temperature rise follows ovulation due to progesterone.
What Pregnancy Reveals About Your Hormonal Future with Dr. Amanda Horton
Q: What role does preconception care play in improving outcomes?
A preconception visit helps identify chronic conditions, optimize medications, plan lifestyle changes, and ensure baseline health measures are in place so pregnancy health risks are understood and managed from the start.
What Pregnancy Reveals About Your Hormonal Future with Dr. Amanda Horton
Q: How should a patient manage risks like preeclampsia after delivery?
Postpartum care should include continued blood pressure monitoring, primary care follow-up, awareness of persistent hypertension, and lifestyle changes to reduce cardiovascular risk; the risk does not disappear with delivery.
What Pregnancy Reveals About Your Hormonal Future with Dr. Amanda Horton
Q: What changes happen in the body during pregnancy, and why is this considered a stress test for future health?
Pregnancy expands blood volume, increases cardiac output, and shifts hormonal and immune dynamics, effectively stress-testing all organ systems. These changes reveal underlying cardiovascular and metabolic resilience or vulnerabilities that can predict risks like preeclampsia, gestational diabetes, and long-term disease.
Fertility Q&A: IVF Success Rates, Transfer Protocols, Autoimmune Infertility, and More
Q: Amanda asks for first steps to optimize chances before trying to become pregnant.
Key steps include tracking ovulation with LH kits or basal body temperature and wearable data, checking AMH and semen analysis, starting a prenatal vitamin with ample folic acid, and adopting lifestyle changes to reduce inflammation and improve overall reproductive health.
