Welcome back to Ask the Egg Whisperer! I'm so excited to have Dr. Steven Palter join me on today's episode. Dr. Palter is the medical and scientific director at Gold Coast IVF in Woodbury, New York, and an internationally recognized leader in fertility treatment. He's also the creator of the PCOS to Pregnancy Protocol - the first comprehensive remote system targeting the root causes of PCOS and the Palter Fertility Method, a personalized approach to diagnosis and care that integrates metabolic health, surgical precision, and emerging reproductive technologies. Watch the full conversation (with more live chatted questions) on Dr. Aimee's Instagram Live. In this episode, we tackle real questions from our community (women ranging from 36 to 47), dealing with everything from diminished ovarian reserve and repeated IVF failure to PCOS, endometriosis, and experimental treatments like mitochondrial replacement therapy. Dr. Palter and I don't always agree, and that's what makes this conversation so valuable. We get into the nuances of DHEA and testosterone supplementation, when genetic testing is worth it even with limited embryos, why your stimulation protocol might be the problem, and how targeting insulin resistance can transform outcomes for PCOS patients. In this episode, we cover: Why AMH predicts egg quantity, not quality and why that distinction mattersThe truth about DHEA and testosterone priming, including a major new study showing no benefitMitochondrial replacement therapy (three-parent IVF): promise, limitations, and what the data actually showsFresh vs. frozen transfers with diminished ovarian reserve, and why PGTA testing is still valuableThe #1 reason for immature eggs and no blasts and the protocol fix that works 80% of the timeEndometriosis, BCL6 testing, and when suppression vs. surgery makes senseHow targeting insulin resistance and inflammation in PCOS patients is changing outcomes dramatically Resources: Dr. Steven Palter's practice: Gold Coast IVF — goldcoastivf.comPCOS to Pregnancy Protocol by Dr. PalterPrevious podcast episode with Dr. Palter on the Palter Fertility MethodDr. Aimee's fertility supplement stack Would you like to learn more about IVF?Click here to join Dr. Aimee for The IVF Class.
