The Egg Whisperer Show

Imagine an insemination kit with a syringe specifically designed for the female body that you can use with your partner or sperm donor in the comfort of your own home. I'm delighted to have Maureen Brown, co-founder of Mosie Baby joining me on the this week to talk about the home insemination kit that she and her husband designed after being faced with infertility.⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ As you know, I really love innovative products and ideas that help people reach their goals. Anything that helps demystify fertility and helps women get pregnant is a win in my book. What I love about the Mosie Baby story is that Maureen and her husband decided to create a product that they could not find and wished existed during their fertility journey. We talk about how the kit was invented, her own experience using it, how it works, and about some of her favorite success stories.

I've yet to meet someone that dreamed of the day they could become my patient. You may dream of your wedding day. Or maybe you may fantasize about your next vacation destination, or the day you buy a house or seeing your future child graduate from high school. But I'm guessing that when you think of those milestones in life, my bet is that nowhere in that world are you thinking about me — a fertility doctor? It's just not happening. And here's the thing — while I love my patients and have been known to tell a good joke or two, it's my honest hope that I never have to meet you. That's because deep down, I want to PREVENT infertility. My job as a doctor is to do my best to ensure I educate you enough that many of you will never need to visit me. Of course, many of you may become my patients, and I truly do love the work I get to do. Today on the podcast, I'm making the bold move to outline how you can go about not becoming my patient. If you follow Patagonia clothing company, it's sort of like how they have ads that say, "Don't Buy This Shirt." They are a company that's about sustainability. They don't want you to buy another shirt. Well, I guess I'm the Patagonia of fertility medicine. I don't want you to need my services. Read the full show notes on Dr. Aimee's website.

As a fertility doctor, I help my patients create the family they want, or preserve their fertility for whatever the future may hold. Part of why I love what I do is that I get to understand the whole person that I treat. Not just their body, but their emotional well-being too. We can't look at humans with tunnel vision. Nor can we look at fertility that way either. The act of going through fertility treatment is as emotional as it is physical. Today on the podcast, I'm sharing the ten things to STOP doing if you're a fertility patient.

On the latest episode of The Egg Whisperer Show, I'm joined by the incredibly compassionate Naomi Woolfson, founder of Embrace Fertility and a trauma-trained hypnotherapist who specializes in helping women feel emotionally supported through fertility treatment. Naomi shares her own four-year journey through IUI, IVF, miscarriage, and anxiety and how it led her to create The Embrace Fertility Method, a mind-body approach that empowers women to feel calm, confident, and connected as they prepare for pregnancy. We talk about how powerful the mind-body connection can be during IVF, how to gently shift from fear to hope, and how practices like visualization, EFT tapping, and guided hypnosis can help bring emotional healing and clarity. Naomi even leads us through a beautiful meditation designed to bring comfort and encouragement right now, wherever you are on your journey. If you're feeling overwhelmed or unsure, this episode is a reminder that you're not alone—and that there are powerful, loving tools to help you move forward with greater peace and strength.

When seeing patients, I always recommend people to gather their Fertility TEAM, and the T is for therapist. I'm so excited to have Dr. Loree Johnson share her valuable info with all of you today. In this conversation, we're going to be talking about some of the mental health impacts of being a fertility patient. I'll be asking Dr. Johnson about the difference between Infertility Stress and Infertility Trauma, we're going to talk about grief as it relates to fertility (and how it's different than other grief), and she'll share how to navigate the stress of being pregnant after having loss. Dr. Loree Johnson is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with more than 25 years of experience as a clinician, educator, and clinical supervisor. After her first-hand experience with fertility challenges taught her the importance of self-care for managing the physical and emotional stress that come with the fertility process, coupled with the lack of representation she saw of therapists of color in the fertility space, Dr. Loree found her purpose supporting individuals and couples on their path to parenthood. She and her husband welcomed their rainbow baby in 2021 after 8 years of trying to conceive, three losses, and one TFMR. Tune in on Dr. Aimee's Website. Visit Dr. Loree Johnson's website.

I'm delighted to have Dr. Ramy Ghayda join me today to talk about sperm, and the importance of sperm DNA Fragmentation testing and how to improve sperm health. When trying to conceive it takes both an egg and sperm cell. And, as you'll hear Dr. Ghayda explain, we now have access to more tests for male factor infertility, and they are more affordable and accessible than ever. He and I both believe it's very important for people, and fertility patients (everyone, really!) to know their options and to be educated about what they can do to improve sperm quality, to test sperm quality. This can help make the whole journey the best it can be, and be one that hopefully leads to good outcomes. Dr. Ghayda is a reproductive urologist. He is currently an assistant professor at University Hospitals in Cleveland, Ohio and the Chief Medical Officer at Legacy, a company that is revolutionizing how men and couples test and freeze sperm, from home.

One of the most common questions I get is, "Dr. Aimee, how can I improve egg, sperm and embryo quality?" We know that age, genetics and environment influence egg, sperm, and embryo quality.

Today, Dr. Kristin Brogaard is joining me today to talk about the Path Fertility SpermQT test. I'm so excited to have her share about the test, because as you'll hear her say "lots of infertility goes undiagnosed because men go undiagnosed, and when men go undiagnosed, women go through procedures that will not work." (Who else wants to see this on a bumper sticker?) While sperm were long considered to be just carriers of DNA, it turns out they are a lot more complex than that! Understanding the sperm side of the equation can help anyone trying to conceive better understand what's going on, and help them figure out the best plan to get pregnant. A few exciting highlights from our discussion: Male and sperm epigenetics play a big role in getting pregnant, and having a successful live birth. The SpermQT test can tell someone if their sperm is excellent, average, or poor quality. - Knowing this information can help you and your doctor determine the most efficient and appropriate next steps in your treatment or protocols. Understanding the quality of the sperm can lead to better outcomes. If it is "excellent," there is an increased likelihood of IUI working, even in cases where doctors thought sperm might be the issue with getting pregnant. If sperm quality is "poor," you may want to try making lifestyle changes to improve sperm quality, and retest. - Poor sperm quality often correlates with other longer term health issues for men, as sperm acts as a "canary in the coal mine." (an early warning system) Dr. Kristin Brogaard has a PhD from Northwestern University where she developed a novel epigenetic technology that allowed for a more accurate understanding of gene expression in health and disease cells. She is now the chief scientific officer of Path Fertility, whose goal is to raise the standard in male reproductive health, starting with male infertility. Thank you for joining us, Kristin!

Today, I'm delighted to be joined on The Egg Whisperer Show by Marc Sherman of Organic Conceptions, a company he founded after a 20-year career in corporate America. The idea came after he and his wife Erin struggled with infertility, decided to adopt, and then unexpectedly found themselves pregnant. Realizing that this phenomenon occurs regularly, they decided to conduct the first-ever research project to better understand the insights, patterns, and commonalities from similar stories. They partnered with Ph.D. Kate Webster and conducted a multi-year study that uncovered 9 key emotional transitions that were common across these stories, and that are required for conception. Their program, The Journey to Parenthood & Beyond, helps couples identify, name, address, and overcome the suffering involved when struggling to conceive, resulting in healthier patients and better outcomes.

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.

Lucy Lines began her career as an embryologist, starting at Monash IVF in Melbourne in 2001. She worked in fertility clinics around the world, and consulted in clinics throughout Europe, the UK, and Australia.

Her Instagram account is refreshing and informative, and I love that she says she will, "happily answer all the questions you've saved for the day you got to meet an embryologist." I've met a few embryologists myself, and I love Lucy's great energy.

Not possible. Or have you thought that because you can take a youthful looking selfie, and feel great, that your fertility must be picture perfect too? Nope, sorry. Good selfies don't equal good fertility. But you're not dumb. You know that. But there may be some tricky information out there that you're not entirely sure if it's true. Fertility isn't surface level. It's not skin-deep. It's biology. It's what's deep inside, and yet impacted by what's outside of you too. Suffice to say, it can be complex. Which is why I'm here. I'm certainly a fertility doctor with over a decade of training and advanced degrees that have gotten me to the point where I finally know how to make a baby.

There are many things that can impact your ability to become pregnant. In today's episode, I'm reviewing the top 10 things to consider if you are TTC. 1. Environmental Toxins. Avoid microwaving food and plastic containers or bottles. Always store food and glass or stainless steel containers. Million Marker offers a test to find out if you have in-body toxicity. 2. Chemicals in food and everyday products. Verify that the products you are using are chemical free. You can do that on https://www.ewg.org/ 3. Being sedentary. The CDC and American College of OBGYN, both recommend exercise in amounts of 150 minutes per week. Avoid over exercising, as low BMI can also cause fertility issues. 4. Food allergies or intolerances. Work with a nutritionist to find out if you have a food allergy or other food intolerance. You may also want to consider working with a specialist if you have PCOS or using Pollie.co to help you manage PCOS if you have it. 5. Blocked Fallopian Tubes. Check with your doctor to find out if this is what may be causing you to have a hard time TTC. 6. THC and Cannabinoids can affect the motility of the fallopian tube and the receptors in the lining of the uterus. This makes embryo implantation harder and it might not happen as quickly as you would want. 7. Nicotine. Nicotine can affect the DNA and the egg in the sperm cells, and it can also affect a woman's fertility such that she could go potentially into menopause earlier. 8. Blaming birth control pills. Many people think that birth control pills "cause" infertility, but the truth is that because they regulate your period they may be masking the indicators of infertility. Make sure you get your hormone levels checked with your doctor every year to confirm your levels. 9. Ignoring biology. Every woman is born with a finite number of eggs, and if you want to wait to have kids until later in life, be sure and freeze your eggs when you are in your 20s. 10. Not getting enough sleep.

People seem to always be full of advice about fertility, and while most of it comes from a place of wanting to be helpful, not all of it is well informed or welcome. When you are trying to conceive, the last thing you want to hear is that you need to "relax." Or "go on a vacation, drink some wine, and let nature run its course." Am I right? In this episode, I'm sharing the types of treatments that fertility doctors offer to patients, including information about fertility pills, fertility shots, IUI, and IVF. I'm also outlining some of the natural things you can do to improve your chances of conceiving, like salt floats, hypnotherapy, and self care.

In this episode of The Egg Whisperer Show, I'm diving into one of the most common questions I get from fertility patients: "How can I improve my egg quality?" Whether you're just starting your fertility journey, preparing for IVF, or planning to freeze your eggs, understanding what impacts egg health is a crucial part of the process. Egg quality naturally declines with age, but there are still things you can do to support your ovarian health and maximize your chances of success. In this episode, I'll walk you through the science of egg development, how to time your interventions, and what supplements, lifestyle choices, and diagnostic tools I recommend most often in my practice. This is all about empowering you with information so you can make the best decisions for your body and your goals.

Does sperm really matter? If you've been tuning in to all of the posts this week for "Super BALLS Week" you'll know that of course it matters! It truly does take both sperm and an egg to make a baby. Today I'll review the sperm question a bit, and explain why it matters. AND, I'll give you a lot more info about how to improve sperm quality. Here's the thing: I know that guys want to hear what they want to hear. They have selective listening. I'm not kidding when I tell you that I had someone email me recently and say "My husband's sperm tested out GREAT, and when we went over the results with the doctor we heard two different things. He thinks he heard our doctor say that it means he can just keep drinking, smoking, and enjoying marijuana and doesn't need to make any lifestyle changes. I heard something very different, which was that he should still cut back until we are pregnant. Can you help settle this for us?" And while it's an unpopular answer (at least with the guys), my response is: Men should cut back or abstain from drinking, and smoking (marijuana too) if you're TTC. Here are a few of the things I suggest to anyone bringing the sperm side of the equation to the baby making situation: - consider freezing your own sperm for future use when you are young. - get in the best shape of your life if you're trying to conceive. Sperm matters, and men's health is directly related to their sperm quality. - take some prenatal vitamins. Yes, really. Many of the same supplements that I recommend for egg quality also are great for sperm quality. - cut back on smoking, drinking, and drug use. Marijuana negatively impacts sperm. - don't cook your balls: avoid hot tubs, using your laptop on your lap, and other situations that may create high temps for the area. - find ways to cut back on stress, if you live a stressful life. Mindfulness and meditation are great for everyone. Read the full transcript and article about this at my website. Do you have questions about IVF?Click here to join Dr. Aimee for The IVF Class.

I started throwing Egg Freezing parties as a fun way for people to learn about fertility. There is humor. There is honest talk. Mostly, I throw them because I want every person to be empowered with knowledge about their fertility. It's really as simple as that. Egg Freezing parties are safe and surgery-free gatherings of women (and sometimes men) to learn more about the process of freezing your eggs (or sperm). Beyond that, we talk in general about fertility and how every woman (and man) can take a proactive role in preserving theirs. I started Egg Freezing parties for a simple reason. Older women were in my office struggling with fertility only to wish they had known more when they were younger. Had someone told them to get their fertility levels checked and to consider the option of preserving their eggs they most certainly would have. I don't want to hear years from now that women wished they'd known more about their fertility. This is what drives me to throw parties to make sure everyone knows they have options! I'm an egg rescuer, egg whisperer and fertility myth buster! Read the full transcript and show notes on Dr. Aimee's website. Do you have questions about Egg Freezing?

Today, I'm excited to be joined by two members of the CryoFuture team: CEO and senior embryologist Sean Pae and Chief Operating Officer, Ginger Huang. CryoFuture is a cryogenic lab that stores frozen eggs and embryos in the San Francisco Bay Area, and we're talking basics here: how a cryo facility works, security considerations, and how their lab makes sure that there are no mixups. I know that many of my patients have a lot of questions about how embryos, eggs, and sperm are stored, and their safety, so we're playing a quick game of "safe or not safe." (spoiler because I don't want to stress anyone out who is trusting a cryobank with their own precious cargo: they'll be safe.) You'll hear us talk about floods, fire, earthquakes, and how specimens will be safe in the case of a car accident while being transported. You can tune in to learn more about the measures that CryoFuture takes to ensure safety, and how they monitor your cargo in transport. It's a fascinating look behind the scenes of how they handle things! Thank you so much for joining me, Sean and Ginger! I love working with you and love the care you extend to my patients and anyone going through IVF in the Bay Area. Learn more about Dr. Aimee at the website.
