Welcome to another episode of Ask the Egg Whisperer! I’m Dr. Aimee, and I’m so glad you’re here. In this episode, I answer your thoughtful questions about fertility, covering everything from whether a blood test can tell you if you’re in perimenopause, to the ins and outs of IUI and IVF, and how supplements, endometriosis, and genetic testing can impact your fertility journey. My goal is always to offer hope, practical advice, and a bit of humor as I help you navigate the complex world of reproductive health.

You’ll hear me share the latest research, treatment strategies, and tips for making informed decisions about your care—whether you’re just starting out or exploring advanced options. I’ll talk about real patient stories, break down the science, and give you actionable steps to take on your path to parenthood.

In this episode, I cover:
  • What supplements and treatments I recommend for women over 40 trying to conceive
  • Whether you should retest embryos that were found to be abnormal
  • The side effects of IUI medications like letrozole and progesterone
  • How many embryos you should aim for if you want more than one child
  • Whether empty follicle syndrome explains low egg retrieval, and what protocols can help
  • If endometriomas should be removed before IVF
  • Why euploid (chromosomally normal) embryo transfers sometimes fail
  • If medicated IUI is significantly better than unmedicated
  • Whether blood tests can confirm perimenopause
  • My thoughts on segmental aneuploid embryos and advanced maternal age

Cardiac Cowboys

Cardiac Cowboys

The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
