In this transformative episode of Fertile Talks, Dr. Yemi Famuyiwa is joined by Dr. Anna Sattah, a former ICU doctor turned functional medicine specialist, to explore how chronic inflammation, gut imbalance, and immune dysregulation can quietly sabotage fertility.
Dr. Sattah shares her powerful journey from critical care to root-cause medicine and offers actionable insights for patients dealing with unexplained infertility, autoimmune conditions, endometriosis, or long COVID. Together, they unpack the deep connection between gut health, brain health, hormone balance, and reproductive success.
Learn how functional lab testing, lifestyle shifts, and a whole-body approach can optimize your fertility—not just by treating symptoms, but by restoring balance at the source. This episode is essential listening for anyone navigating chronic illness on the road to parenthood.
About Dr. Sattah
Dr. Anna Sattah is a board-certified physician with a background in internal medicine and critical care who transitioned into functional and integrative medicine after her own transformative health journey. With years spent in the ICU, Dr. Sattah developed a deep understanding of acute illness—but it was her personal experience with chronic conditions and autoimmune challenges that led her to seek deeper, root-cause solutions for healing.
Today, she helps patients address chronic inflammation, hormone imbalance, gut dysfunction, and fertility challenges through a whole-person, systems-based approach. Dr. Sattah is passionate about helping others reclaim their health and fertility by restoring balance at the cellular and emotional level.
