  • Perimenopause, Low Ovarian Reserve, and Hormones
    Aug 18 2024
    Dr. Natalie Crawford dives deep into ovarian failure, perimenopause, and hormones. She explores how ovarian function can cease at any age, even before puberty, and discusses the natural decline in ovarian reserve as women age. She highlights the significance of estrogen, its role in overall health, and how its decline impacts women during menopause. Dr. Crawford also covers essential tests like AMH and antral follicle count, providing insights into a woman's egg supply and reproductive potential. Natalie answers your questions in FFS-For Fertility's Sake How can I increase my chances of getting pregnant if I am in early menopause? I don't have periods and was told I have hypothalamic amenorrhea but no testing was done. Should I ask for more tests? Can I still get pregnant with low hormones?

  • Unexplained vs. Undiagnosed Infertility
    Aug 11 2024
    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? Want to receive my weekly newsletter?
