Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Fresh or Frozen? Understanding Embryo Transfer Decisions in IVF
Q: Is there any new data on fresh versus frozen in terms of success rates?
New data suggests that frozen embryos appear to have better success rates; however, this often reflects the fact that they are typically used for higher prognosis patients, rather than the technique itself being superior.
We Can Make Eggs from Skin Cells?!
Q: What are the steps or safeguards that would you expect to be put in place before something novel went out to clinical use?
We need rigorous scientific proof of safety through regulation by bodies like the Therapeutic Goods Administration or the FDA before utilizing new technologies in reproductive medicine.
We Can Make Eggs from Skin Cells?!
Q: How groundbreaking is this compared to what's come before?
It's interesting and it offers new possibilities, but we must understand it doesn't happen naturally and we can't assure the safety and normal functioning of the produced eggs.
Fertility and Peri/Menopause Part 1
Q: What hormonal changes occur in perimenopause?
As the egg quantity declines, hormone levels fluctuate more, leading to shorter cycles and potential complications with lining development for implantation.
Fertility and Peri/Menopause Part 1
Q: Can you explain the difference between perimenopause and menopause in the context of fertility?
Menopause is when menstrual cycles stop completely, and while you can still carry a pregnancy using previously frozen eggs or embryos, you can no longer produce eggs.
