Ever had an amazing IVF cycle followed by one that made you question everything? You’re not alone—and no, your ovaries didn’t suddenly revolt. In this episode of Taco Bout Fertility Tuesday, Dr. Mark Amols breaks down the statistical concept of regression to the mean—why extreme fertility outcomes often return to average over time.

From IVF cycles to PGT results, hormone levels to semen analysis, you’ll learn why bouncing numbers aren’t always bad—and why your “worst cycle ever” might just be math doing its thing. Packed with analogies, real patient stories, and just enough nerdy data to make you feel smarter than your doctor’s EMR, this episode is for anyone riding the emotional rollercoaster of fertility treatment.

🎯 The takeaway? Don’t panic over the highs or the lows. Zoom out. It’s the trend that tells the truth.
