No one really wants to see a fertility doctor Worried we'll find something wrong Worried we won't Worried we'll push IVF or a treatment you don't want Worried will add to the shame society already heaps on those with infertility 👇What did I miss?

Not sure who needs to here this but Your family's fertility narrative may not be yours If they 'get pregnant looking at each other' You may have a hard time If your family has infertility and miscarriages It doesn't mean you'll have the same Don't make assumptions❤️

POV from this fertility doctor AMH does NOT predict fertility It's best use is setting expectations for outcomes with stimulation for IVF, egg freezing BUT You can conceive & have a baby with a low AMH - work with a reproductive endocrinologist who can counsel you about YOUR personal situation

Not sure who needs to hear this but Miscarriage is -more common than you think -most often an embryo issue -not your fault The vast majority of people who have miscarriages go on to have their family without intervention Every pregnancy is a new opportunity #notbroken

If you have to choose one fertility test.. Choose a semen analysis : highest value test. Up to 50% male factor issue in couples with #infertility and cost typically <$200.00

PSA from this fertility doctor Despite most fertility education, ovulation testing, and menstrual cycle apps claim a normal cycle length is 28 days, 2019 study showed only 13% of menstrual cycles are actually 28 days A little variety is OK!

Past fertility does not predict present fertility Many will conceive easily the first time and when trying again delay seeking help because they are stuck in the narrative that getting pregnant is easy for them Things change Don’t waste time stuck Seek testing and counseling

I have no personal knowledge of this project but as a fertility doctor and former fertility patient I’m saddened to see any less research this field - we have so much to learn!
