Show Notes

On this episode of the Functional Fertility Podcast, Dr. Kalea Wattles is joined by Functional Registered Dietitian Nutritionist Nicole Fennell to unpack the vital connection between thyroid health and fertility. If you’re trying to conceive, you’ve likely heard about the importance of thyroid function—but did you know that even “normal” lab results don’t always tell the full story? Nicole shares why some patients still struggle with infertility despite seemingly optimal thyroid levels, the key nutrients that support both thyroid and reproductive health, and what your body temperature might reveal about your hormones. Plus, we tackle listener questions on Hashimoto’s, medication, and persistent hair shedding. If you’re looking to optimize your thyroid for a healthy conception, this episode is a must-listen!
