Brittany Hawkins is the co-founder and CEO of ELANZA Wellness, a company focused on fertility coaching. I'm really excited about the work that ELANZA is doing, and how her coaches are supporting fertility patients. She hopes to foster a safe and structured way for people to feel less stress so they can move forward intentionally in their personal lives. She is also the co-author of the book "Everything Egg Freezing: The Essential Step by Step Guide to Doing it Right." This book is a valuable one-stop, science-based guide for people. ⁠Brittany froze her eggs in her 30s, and after meeting Catherine Hendy, they decided to set out to make the experience of being a fertility patient better by starting their company.

On today's Egg Whisperer Show podcast, I'm sharing an interview by MaryJane Carnahan of "The Biggest Ask." She hosted me on Instagram Live, and we talked all about surrogacy. In this interview, we talk about how using a gestational carrier or surrogate has become more common in the last few years and the kinds of patients that should consider using a surrogate. We also discuss how one becomes a gestational carrier, and what the path to becoming one looks like, and how to work with an agency if you are considering one. And, no conversation about surrogacy would be complete without also sharing the psychological considerations of using a gestational carrier, for both the surrogate and for the intended parents. Because the discussion around fertility and treatment has also become more normalized, the use of a gestational carrier has become more accepted in the last decade as well, which has opened up doors for many hopeful parents. I'm grateful for the work that MJ is doing, and so appreciative to have been included on her Live series.

As part of the IVF cycle, patients are given hormones which stimulates the ovaries to allow all the possible follicles and eggs to grow. The good news is that this often allows us to capture as many healthy eggs as possible in one cycle, giving a patient a better chance at a healthy embryo. One possible side effect is Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome. Dr. Nichole Barker of Seattle Reproductive Medicine joins me on the podcast today to talk all about OHSS. What do you need to know before IVF? What are the symptoms of OHSS? What's the protocol for a patient (and her doctor) should she have symptoms?⠀ Read the full show notes on Dr. Aimee's website.

Dr. Geoffrey Sher is back, and we are going to be covering a very important topic: why do you need to do PGT testing if you're doing IVF (or do you?) Dr. Sher is the co-founder of Sher Fertility Solutions (SFS) and internationally renowned expert in the field of ART (Assisted Reproductive Technology) and has been influential in the births of over 17,000 IVF babies. Around 2005, Dr. Sher's team published the first paper that showed beyond a shadow of a doubt that if you were able to fully karyotype the embryo cells that a euploid embryo would have an excellent chance. Today there is hardly an IVF program in the world that is not doing PGS/PGT-A to assess embryo viability. Today, we are discussing if PGT is needed for all IVF cycles, the role DOR plays in assessing if PGT is useful, and other maternal chromosomal and genetic abnormalities that may mean you'd want to consider PGT. Plus, he's addressing the concern that some patients have around the possibility that PGT may harm an embryo (short answer: if done correctly it does not).

Have you ever used Google Maps and been redirected midway via a better route? Think about this show as your personalized navigation tool for fertility and IVF, as Dr. Aimee shares the five things you need to know before, during, and after IVF to support yourself. 1. Be clear on why you're considering IVF. Why are you doing IVF? 2. Realize your relationships may change. This is something I ask my patients to think about before, during, and after IVF. 3. Develop a plan for unused embryos. When you're going through IVF this is likely the last thing you want to think or talk about. 4. Know that pregnancy isn't always easy. Developing a support system is important during IVF and fertility treatment. 5. Understand that your feelings may linger. The feelings you had when you had a hard time getting pregnant can sometimes continue during pregnancy, after pregnancy, and beyond. Read the full show notes on Dr. Aimee's website.

Dr. Geoffrey Sher is joining me again, and this time we are going to talk about implantation failure during IVF. Dr. Sher is co-founder of Sher Fertility Solutions (SFS) and an internationally renowned expert in the field of assisted reproductive technology, and influential in the births of more than 17,000 IVF babies. One day I hope that I'll be able to say the same thing about myself.

He established the first private IVF program in the United States in 1982, then later expanded his practice to include several centers throughout California before founding the first Sher Fertility Solutions in Las Vegas. He's also the author of several books, In Vitro Fertilization: The ART of Making Babies, which is now in its third edition. In this episode, we're talking about implantation failure during IVF. Many times I wonder why embryos do not stick and grow.

Dr. Shannon Clark is back on The Egg Whisperer Show to talk about the paper she recently co-authored, titled "Pregnancy After 40: Recommendations for Counseling, Evaluation, and Management From Preconception to Delivery." Whether you are a patient or a doctor, I know that this is a topic that will interest so many of you.

Today, on The Egg Whisperer Show, I'm sharing a video hosted by Dr. Nabil Arrach. In this video, you'll get a behind the scenes look at my work and learn about some of what's coming up (The Egg Whisperer App!) and how I originally got the name "The Egg Whisperer." Plus, I am sharing about how I work with patients. I know that I approach things a little differently than many doctors. I come from a family of OB GYNs (my grandfather and father), and I love being able to treat patients the way I would want my own family to be treated. This means that sometimes, patients come to my house to get shots. It means that I talk to people about what happens if the treatment we have planned doesn't work for them. Each treatment is personalized for each patient, and each patient gets my undivided attention. Because for me, it all comes down to love. Fertility patients want to bring more love into the world, and I feel I am the luckiest person around, knowing that I get to help them do just that. If you want to learn more, I invite you to tune in. And, I want to give Dr. Arrach and his team a very special thank you including me on their show! You can find Progenesis Academy by clicking here.

Most fertility treatment hinges on the strategic use of drugs to help the body be as fertile as possible. My goal is to give each of my patients a personalized fertility plan with custom calendars of what to do, which drug to take, and when.

Today on The Egg Whisperer Show, my dear friend Dr. Jenna McCarthy is joining me to talk all about the most common IVF mistakes. Our intent is to share as much information as we can with you so you'll go into an IVF cycle aware, empowered and feeling comfortable with what is going on. We want people to avoid these mistakes and also hear that they're common, they happen, and there's always something you can do if you're dealing with an issue.⠀ We're talking about troubleshooting needle and syringe issues, the importance of not eating or drinking before your egg retrieval, timing of the trigger shot, sperm emergencies, and medication dosage issues and more. We're basically talking about everything we've seen in our combined 20+ years of doing IVF. ⠀ Read the full show notes on Dr. Aimee's website Subscribe to my YouTube channel for more fertility tips!

Today on the Egg Whisperer Show podcast, Dr. Geoffrey Sher joins me again to talk about his approach to care when it comes to IVF. We are discussing how he individualizes IVF protocols to optimize egg and embryo quality, giving his patients the best chance of IVF pregnancy. As he shares, there is no "one size fits all" approach to choosing the best protocol for IVF. It's no surprise that I agree with him. Protocols need to be customized, and are dependent on the woman's age and her ovarian reserve. Tune in as we talk about how to pick a protocol, the role of the trigger shot, the importance of hormones like estrogen and testosterone, and EZ-IVF versus mini IVF.

I am so excited to have Dr. Stephanie Fein joining me today on The Egg Whisperer Show podcast. We are talking about a topic that can be quite sensitive: optimizing your fertility through weight loss. There's no better person to talk about this today than Stephanie.

Today on the podcast, I'm delighted to be speaking to Dr. Lucky Sekhon, or as many of her patients call her, Dr. Lucky. She is a reproductive endocrinologist and infertility specialist at Reproductive Medicine Associates of New York, a large New York City based IVF center. She was born and raised in Toronto, Canada and moved to NYC to complete her OB/GYN residency training. We're going to be talking about genetic testing & fertility, and everything you need to know before trying to conceive. Genetic testing can sound kind of intimidating to people, and it shouldn't be! Genetics play a huge role in our fertility, and like I always say, "the more you know, the better things will go." Dr. Lucky is here to tell us more about it. I feel lucky ;-) to have her on the show, and so honored that she's here to share her wisdom with us. Read the full show notes and transcript on my website.

Dr. Geoffrey Sher is back, and we are talking about Intrauterine Insemination, or IUI. In 1982, Dr. Sher and his colleagues were the first to wash sperm, and then put it through a centrifuge process. After an incubation period, they used a catheter to inject the sperm into the uterine cavity of a patient. He's a true pioneer, and this was the first time IUI had been done!. I know you will enjoy learning more about IUI from him. We're sharing about how IUI works, and why it's recommended for some patients. We also discuss the differences between IUI and IVF, and when you might pick one over the other. Read the whole show notes on my website.

I often tell my patients that we should rename the Trigger Shot, the super unicorn sparkle shot, the egg launcher shot, or the EGG-cellerator shot.

Should you test for ovulation afterwards, and if so, when? Do you have to have a Trigger Shot? Can you administer it at home, or does it need to be in a doctor's office? When should you check for pregnancy after the shot to make sure it isn't in your system anymore?⠀ See the full show notes here.

Kelly recently wrote in to ask The Egg Whisperer a question. She is 31, and here's what she had to say, "My husband and I found out we were pregnant and after several ultrasounds and blood work, I was told I had a partial molar pregnancy. My doctor told me that it was simply just really bad luck. I am waiting to get the okay to try again and really want to set myself up for success. I was taking a prenatal before and while we were trying, and now I'm making lifestyle changes. It's very difficult experiencing a molar pregnancy because I don't know anyone else who has had one. Is it likely for me to have another molar pregnancy or miscarriage?" Tune in to hear my answer to Kelly's question, and to other questions sent in by listeners.

In today's Egg Whisperer Show podcast episode, I'm sharing a recent Ask The Egg Whisperer. The first question I read is from Sylvia, and here's the question she sent in, "We have been trying for nearly two years with no luck. I have been diagnosed with adenomyosis and was wondering if this could be affecting my fertility as there doesn't seem to be much information out there. Most info is coupled with endometriosis but I don't have that. I was just wondering if you had any insight on this?" Here's what I share with Sylvia about adenomyosis: adenomyosis is a fertility threatening condition. It can decrease implantation rates, increase risk of miscarriage, and increase the risk of pregnancy complications. It's important to get an accurate diagnosis and a treatment plan as soon as possible when you have this. There are ways to treat adenomyosis and your fertility specialist or OBGYN can help.

In this episode of Ask The Egg Whisperer, Maree writes in with this question," Hi Dr Aimee! Love your jokes and sense of humour. We are so lucky to have you as a positive beacon of hope on this fertility journey. I am 40 years old, my AMH is.46, and FSH is 8. At my first retrieval, we fertilized 2 eggs. One made it to day 5, no blast, the second blasted! But it was not genetically normal. Is it useful to get the embryo report from the lab even though the blastocyst wasn't genetically normal? Can the grading of the egg still be useful in learning more about my egg quality?" Tune in to hear my answer and answers to other questions.
