Description
Dr. Amy Beckley, founder and CEO of MFB Fertility and inventor of the Proov fertility test joins the show to talk about her journey as a scientist going through infertility herself to searching for answers and inventing a solution. Amy Beckley, had trouble conceiving for over three years, she did what many women do: saved up thousands of dollars and pursued in-vitro fertilization treatment. After being blessed with a son, Amy knew she wanted to continue to grow her family. What she didn’t know was how well she could handle the physical and emotional challenge of another round of IVF. With a PhD in Pharmacology and expertise in hormone signaling, she began tracking her own hormone levels at home. In doing so, she started to suspect that she had a problem with ovulation —which was causing her to lose pregnancy after pregnancy. Empowered by this knowledge, she went to her doctor and got a prescription for hormone supplements. With these supplements, she was able to conceive without the help of IVF, and maintain a healthy pregnancy. After her daughter was born, her mission was clear—to empower women with vital knowledge that could help in their ability to conceive. She founded MFB Fertility, Inc. and invented the Proov test in her own basement, which now allows women to confirm successful ovulation by tracking PdG in just five minutes, at home.
