Description

In today’s podcast episode, the first question is from Elena. She shares, “I had an endometriosis removing surgery in June of 2019, and I didn't get pregnant. Then we started IVF. With a long protocol and I got 12 eggs, but only two of them made it to a blastocyst. I was overstimulated and we scheduled the transfer for December 1st. I also had elevated natural killer cells which were treated with cortisone. Now I got a negative pregnancy test. What would you do next? How can I help to improve my egg quality?” Here are my thoughts for Elena. Endometriosis can decrease egg quality,the number of mature eggs in an IVF cycle, reduce implantation potential and cause tubal issues. I would have you take supplements like: coq10 and N-Acetyl Cysteine.  Since you had 12 eggs and two of them made it to blast, there's hope! Hope means to “Have Only Practical and Positive Expectations.” This means being realistic, while keeping hope in your heart.  To hear the whole answer that I give to Elena’s question, tune in to today’s podcast episode. You’ll find Elena’s question at the very beginning.
