This episode is all about improving ovarian reserve.
You can use these tips I imagine at any point in your life, but certainly for those women
over 40 I think this will be especially helpful.
So I'm going to give you some of my tips now and the first thing and the most important
thing, and if you've watched any of my videos, you know, for me it's about finding out information
and the why.
And one of the ways that I do that is by lab tests and results.
So do you know what your lab tests are?
Have you done all unnecessary lab tests and do you know what those results are so that
we can create a plan around that.
If you have the right tests done and you have all the information, then creating a plan
around improving ovarian reserve becomes a lot easier.
I'm not saying that there aren't things that you can do without that information.
I think it becomes much more streamlined and easier and more successful if you've done
all the necessary testing and hormone labs before you get to this point.
So my first tip is make sure you've done all the necessary of hormone labs and I will caution
you all your first gut reaction is, Oh yeah, I've done them all.
Everybody says they're fine or yes, my doctor told me they're fine and I've done them all.
Look at them for yourself.
Get a second opinion because that might not be the case.
They might not be fine or you might not have done them all.
Number two, treat the underlying issue.
The best way to improve ovarian reserve is to treat the root cause.
The why behind what's happening.
And for some of you might find it surprising that the root cause and the why behind it
might not have to do with fertility at all.
It might be digestive issues, stress, other hormone issues, thyroid issues, whatever
it might be.
It might not be fertility issues, it might be a combination of things.
so make sure you understand what the root issue is and treat that.
That will make the world of difference.
When you are looking to change ovarian reserve, what have you done to improve your ovarian
reserve at all?
so leave that answer below so that I can learn and everybody else
around can learn what you did to improve your ovarian reserve.
Then number three, look at effecting ovarian reserve as, as if it's anti - aging
medicine.
I call it reproductive anti-aging.
What can you do to affect the health of the cells that your ovaries are producing?
The health of the cells that create your eggs or your sperm?
What are the things that you can do to improve those things?
There's a myriad of things, right?
I'm sure you could just start to think of them pretty quickly.
Maybe I can go to sleep earlier and get more sleep, better quality sleep, eat healthier,
exercise more.
You know, there's a whole slew of things that you can do to improve the quality
of your cells.
That goes back to anti aging.
And I want you to contemplate that.
But my fourth recommendation, which is the one that I think all of you are waiting for
and hoping that I started with it.
number one, which is what supplements can you take to improve your ovarian reserve?
And this also goes back to my last point, which is anti - aging.
These are supplements that are going to help improve the quality of your cells, which make
up your eggs and your sperm.
so it's about egg quality and affecting the cells that make those up.
so three supplements that you can take
COQ10 has been shown in studies to help improve ovarian reserve and egg quality,
Antioxidants and there's a whole slew of them out there that can help improve ovarian reserve.
And then Inositol, my Inositol can also do that.
And that's been shown in some research as well.
So those are my key tips for improving ovarian reserve.
Again, what have you done to improve ovarian reserve?
