Integrative Fertility Programs for Men and Women

This list could go on and on. What we have found is that many of these things are happening already but don’t always affect fertility.

Lets define infertility:

• Trying for more than 6 months without success and you are over 35 years of age.
• Trying for more than 12 months without success if you are under 35 years of age.
• Repeat miscarriages

Many couples face stress and begin getting concerned after TTC for over a length of time and eventually start hitting the “Google” searches trying to find out what could be wrong or what they could do to help them. Thankfully, there is a ton of information online, unfortunately, none of it is really specific to you, its very generalized or and some information doesn’t have any research behind it. How many times have you been told to try something by a friend cause she or he was told it would help this and you come to find out that wasn’t the case??? These are the joys of “Google”.

1/3 of infertility is caused by men; 1/3 of infertility is caused by women; 1/3 of infertility is caused by a mixture of both. This is where infertility specialists should come into play and the sooner the better. For couples older than 35 interventions are still available but the time to act is now because these interventions can take up to 12 months to really do their job. So another year of work before you are even able to get pregnant. Why is that?

Did you see the list of Reasons for Infertility?

When was the last time you spoke with your primary about concerns of your hormones being imbalanced or poor erections and they didn’t do much about it?

This is also where preconception care comes into play. So what is preconception care? It’s a 120 window you and your partner use to PREPARE and REDEFINE your genes! The steps of our Preconception program are nice and easy and are done based on your personal history and current environment. Appropriate labs are drawn and dietary evaluation is taken to get you started. Specialty labs may also be a part of your initial consultation depending on your personal/work history, environment, and overall health.

Health today plays the biggest role in how likely you and your partner are going to be at becoming pregnant. These labs also give us information about a timeline for needed support before referring Trying to Conceive or referring to a Reproductive Endocrinologist.

Because everything you and your partner do will affect the health of your future child.

It’s a time for fact-finding and research about your personal history. It’s time to get the proper labs and evaluations done in an appropriate manner before you’ve wasted too many years with “google” and “my friend said” information. Do this now before it gets to a point where IUI (intrauterine insemination) and IVF (in vitro fertilization) are now your only options. There’s time if you give it time.
