  • Causes of Miscarriage Before 12 Weeks: What Most Doctors Miss

    Causes of Miscarriage Before 12 Weeks: What Most Doctors Miss
    Jul 14 2025
    If you’ve had early miscarriage before 12 weeks, especially more than once, and been told everything looks “normal,” or you’ve been diagnosed with low AMH, high FSH, this episode is for you. We’re going to talk about what’s often overlooked in early term pregnancy loss: gut health, immune dysfunction, clotting disorders, nutrient deficiencies, and hormone imbalance from a conventional and functional medicine perspective. In this episode, you’ll learn: Why progesterone, thyroid function and adrenal health are key to early pregnancy The role of gut dysbiosis, inflammation, and food sensitivities in recurrent miscarriage What comprehensive bloodwork reveals - including homocysteine, hsCRP, ANA, and more Functional strategies to support detoxification, reduce stress, and improve implantation How immune triggers and vaginal microbiome imbalances increase miscarriage risk While the focus of this episode is on the female side of fertility it’s not to be overlooked to look at the male partner’s health. Poor sperm quality, oxidative stress, gut infections, and DNA fragmentation can all contribute to miscarriage, poor embryo development,t and implantation failure. Just as we look at gut health, inflammation, and functional bloodwork in women,n we need to apply this lens to the male partner. If you haven’t looked at semen analysis or functional testing for men, be sure to check out our Male Factor Fertility episode for strategies to optimize sperm health and improve pregnancy outcomes.

  • When Alert Becomes Alarm: How Hypervigilance Impacts Egg Quality and Low AMH

    When Alert Becomes Alarm: How Hypervigilance Impacts Egg Quality and Low AMH
    Jun 30 2025
    We’re diving deep into hypervigilance, how this so-called superpower might actually be standing in the way of your fertility success. If you can’t stop researching, tracking, and worrying, this episode is for you. We’re talking about hypervigilance being on high alert all the time and how it’s interfering with your fertility. From disrupted hormone signaling to suppressed ovulation and declining egg quality, chronic stress changes how your body works at a fundamental level. Hypervigilance shows up as: Over-researching and second-guessing every decision Micromanaging protocols or switching supplements often Feeling like no matter how hard you try, it’s never enough This state may feel productive but it’s keeping your nervous system in survival mode. And when your body thinks it’s in danger, it prioritizes protection over reproduction. Fertility isn’t just about what you eat or which supplements you take, it’s also about how your body feels. And the truth is: your reproductive system needs calm to function optimally. Tune in to find out how stress affects egg quality and what to do next on your path to pregnancy. This episode is for you if: Constantly feel like you have to be “on” or in control of your fertility journey - researching, tracking, planning every detail. Struggle to relax or switch off, even when you're doing all the "right" things to support your hormones and egg quality. Have been told your AMH is low or you have diminished ovarian reserve, and you're wondering if stress is playing a bigger role than you thought. In this episode we'll cover: Why chronic stress and hypervigilance disrupt ovulation and hormone balance How high cortisol impacts AMH, egg quality, and IVF outcomes The role of mitochondrial health in egg development and how stress gets in the way Simple somatic practices to calm the nervous system and restore reproductive function How to shift from over-control to trust without losing your sense of agency --- RESOURCES How Perfectionism Affects Fertility and Egg Quality - And What to Do About It: https://fabfertile.com/blogs/podcasts/is-perfectionism-affecting-your-fertility-how-to-let-go-and-support-egg-health-naturally?_pos=1&_sid=d6bf4d95b&_ss=r IVF Prep with Low AMH: Boosting Your Chances for Success: https://fabfertile.com/blogs/podcasts/ivf-prep-with-low-amh-boosting-your-chances-for-success-1?_pos=1&_sid=462c4eac8&_ss=r AMH Diet – Start This Today to Support Fertility & Get Pregnant This Year: https://fabfertile.com/blogs/podcasts/amh-diet-start-this-today-to-support-fertility-get-pregnant-this-year?_pos=4&_sid=b64c3e6f1&_ss=r Success Story: POI at 27 and Pregnant: https://fabfertile.com/blogs/education/success-story-poi-at-27-and-pregnant?_pos=1&_sid=125e01ba3&_ss=r Our favorite fertility tracker (use code FABFERTILE15 to save 15) - https://www.inito.com/en-us/?srsltid=AfmBOoo85sXu_esmFN5Kz6iysaTkBKgYl35Jubv-BaLkkxXVggdk6nes Fab Fertile Method https://www.fabfertile.com/what-we-do/ Ultimate Guide to Getting Pregnant This Year If You Have Low AMH/High FSH - https://fabfertile.clickfunnels.com/optinvbzjfsii Not sure where to start?

    We’re digging into how to prepare for a successful embryo transfer. You’ve cleaned up your diet, taken all the right supplements, and maybe even had a few rounds of IUI or IVF. But if implantation keeps failing, or you’re dealing with low AMH, poor egg quality, or recurrent miscarriage - there’s more going on. What if the issue isn’t just your hormone levels or egg count… but something hidden like the vaginal or seminal microbiome, your gut health or undetected inflammation?

This episode is for you if: You’ve had a failed transfer, early miscarriage, or are prepping for IVF and want to understand how inflammation, microbiome, and hormone metabolism affect implantation.

You’re ready to explore functional testing and personalized strategies to optimize your environment for egg quality, embryo health, and implantation success. In this episode you'll learn: Why the vaginal and seminal microbiome are key players in implantation and early pregnancy success.

  • Blood Sugar and Egg Quality: The Fertility Link You Can't Ignore

    Blood Sugar and Egg Quality: The Fertility Link You Can't Ignore
    Jun 16 2025
    We’re digging into blood sugar and why it matters for egg quality, especially if you’ve been told you have low AMH, DOR (diminished ovarian reserve), POI (premature ovarian insufficiency) or recurrent pregnancy loss.

In this episode we dive into the powerful connection between blood sugar balance and egg quality, especially for those with low AMH, diminished ovarian reserve or recurrent miscarriage. You’ll learn why even small imbalances can cause oxidative stress and inflammation that disrupts the ovarian environment, and what you can do about it. We walk through CGMs, glucose meters, and symptom tracking to help you find hidden patterns. Plus we share proven diet, lifestyle, and stress strategies to balance your blood sugar and support better reproductive outcomes. Whether this is your first cycle or you’ve had transfer failures before, this episode will give you practical, personalized steps to protect your eggs and create a more supportive environment for implantation and pregnancy success. This episode is for you if: You’re struggling with low AMH, poor egg quality, or recurrent miscarriages and want to understand hidden factors affecting your fertility. You suspect blood sugar imbalances but aren’t sure how to identify or manage them effectively. You’re ready to use practical tools and lifestyle changes to take control of your reproductive health and improve your chances of pregnancy. In this episode you'll learn: 🔹 How blood sugar imbalances affect egg quality, ovulation and implantation, even if your labs look “normal.” 🔹 Why insulin resistance and oxidative stress are the big (but often overlooked) culprits of poor egg quality and low AMH. 🔹 How to use CGMs, glucose meters, and symptom tracking to find the hidden patterns that impact your fertility. 🔹 Fertility diet, lifestyle, and stress strategies to balance blood sugar and hormones. 🔹 How to use your own data to make changes that actually work. --- RESOURCES 📩 Get your free 10-day elimination diet plan!
