Did you know that you don’t need to have sex every single day in order to get pregnant? This week on All Together: The Family Science Insights Podcast, host Marie Stella consults registered nurse Dr. Karin Hammarberg on what fertility awareness is, and how it can help couples achieve their reproductive goals.

With over 20 years of experience as clinical coordinator of IVF programs, Dr. Karin Hammarberg is currently a senior research fellow at Monash University. Her research interests primarily involve the promotion of fertility and preconception health, the psychosocial aspects of infertility and infertility treatment, as well as the health and development of children born after assisted conception.

In this episode, Dr. Karin Hammarberg sheds light on the biggest misconceptions about fertility, and highlights various fertility awareness-based methods of family planning. Additionally, she delves into what both men and women need to know about fertility to optimize their family planning goals—be it multiple children, or none at all.

Together, Marie and Dr. Karin Hammarberg explore the science behind the menstrual cycle, as well as habits that may prove useful in tracking fertility. So, whether you’re hoping to welcome a new family member or simply curious about your body’s functions, tune in for an informative discussion!
