What’s Really Driving Infertility—and What You Can Do About It
Fertility struggles are far more common than most people realize—and far more complex than we’re often told. Today I answer listener-submitted questions on fertility, hormone balance, and preparing your body for conception.
Here’s what I cover:
• Why infertility is rising and what’s really driving it
• The hidden role of blood sugar, inflammation, and toxins in hormone balance
• What to do if labs are “normal” but fertility struggles persist
• How lifestyle and nutrition improve egg and sperm quality
• Simple, practical steps to support fertility now and long-term
Fertility challenges are complex and often influenced by underlying imbalances. Addressing root causes can help support your body’s natural resilience over time.
