EPISODE OVERVIEW: In today’s episode, I am sharing my fertility story and the learnings from the experience. 

In this episode I discuss:

  • How a cluster of symptoms including: a missed period for 3 months, hair loss, weight gain and hormonal acne led me to an eventual diagnosis of PCOS and Hyperprolactinemia
  • The overwhelm of the new diagnosis and how it led me to a path of discovery about my reproductive and endocrine systems
  • My traumatic miscarriage the night before our babymoon to Aruba
  • Fibroid removal surgery and the subsequent steps taken to maximize my wellness for the purpose of improved fertility
  • The role of integrative health and/or functional medicine in my successful pregnancy
  • My experience at two polar opposite fertility clinics
  • What I learned from my experiences
  • ...and much more!
