Questions Answered:
Does having recurrent pregnancy loss automatically put me in the high risk category once I have a viable or full term pregnancy?

I'm a 36 year old who had a miscarriage at age 35, since then has undergone IVF and has 5 genetically normal embryos, but has had 3 embryo transfers that haven't worked. What should I do?
Is it worth taking CoQ10 if you're just starting to try to conceive? If so, how much should you take? And does it need to be in the form of Ubiquinol?
I'm a 32 year old who has had two second trimester losses (15 weeks and 19 weeks) that were genetically normal. Do I really need to do IVF, even with the genetically normal losses?
I started dealing with hirsutism a few years ago. My OB/GYN said my labs were all fine and it must be in the hair follicles. Is this treatable? How can I minimize it?

Dr. Natalie Crawford discusses the topic of unexplained versus undiagnosed infertility. Unexplained infertility is an official diagnosis when the standard fertility tests do not reveal a clear cause for the infertility. Many cases of "unexplained" infertility may actually be due to underlying issues like low ovarian reserve, endometriosis, autoimmune disorders, or other factors that are difficult to diagnose. She emphasized the importance of advocating for thorough testing and not accepting the "unexplained" label without further investigation into the root causes. Even with an "unexplained" diagnosis, there are often ways to uncover and address the underlying factors impacting fertility.
Natalie answers your questions in FFS-For Fertility's Sake
I know I need to go to a fertility clinic but I’m nervous and dragging my feet. How do I get over this?
I have a low ovarian reserve confirm with suspected weak ovulation. What do I do now?
How does Hashimoto’s impact fertility? Does TSH rule everything?

Dr. Natalie Crawford discusses testing your fertility and if and when it's something that you should do. She explains the different types of fertility testing including testing of ovarian reserve like AMH levels, anatomy like HSG tests of the fallopian tubes and uterus, and semen analysis for male partners. She also discusses how fertility and chances of pregnancy decline with age and the implications for family planning and choices around fertility preservation. Women should be informed about their fertility earlier so they can make the best decisions for their family goals and timeline. The episode aims to help women understand their bodies and fertility so they can advocate for themselves.
