I speak with women all the time who have said to me that their doctor won’t investigate potential issues with their fertility until they’ve been trying to conceive for 12 months with no success; that they need to have had more than 1 miscarriage to be referred to a specialist, to just stop stressing, give it time and it will happen! Even women who are experiencing unsuccessful IVF cycles are usually just booked in for the next one. 

 

Women are not getting the support and encouragement they need to feel in control of their fertility. Sadly, women are not routinely taught about preconception care and daily factors that could be impacting their fertility. 

Many reproductive conditions, many issues with ovulation and your cycle, many of those traditional PMS symptoms associated with having a period that you dread every single month are all related to an imbalance between our hormones. And we can absolutely treat a hormone imbalance. Sometimes a few small changes are enough to have a big impact, sometimes you may need artificial hormones in one form or another to address the issue, sometimes it’s harder to treat, but the key is investigating what has caused the imbalance in order to correct it. 

In this episode we're talking all things hormone balance, the role of our key sex hormones and how to manage potential issues by first looking at your environment and your exposure to potential pollutants and contributors to hormone imbalance that you can address yours
