21: 5 Fertility Biohacks That Actually Work After 35 From a Women's Hormone Expert

If you have ever been told, "Well, you are over 35," as if that is the end of the fertility conversation, I need you to hear this episode. Of course age matters. I am not arguing with biology. But there is another piece of fertility that I pay very close attention to, and it can tell us so much more about what is actually happening with your ovaries than the number on your birthday cake. I have lived this myself. I had PCOS, was told when I was younger that having children could be very difficult for me, conceived my first daughter at 37, and had my second two months after turning 44. None of that happened because I found some magic fertility trick at the last minute. There were very specific things I had been doing for years to support my hormones, my ovaries, and my fertility, and in this episode I am walking you through the five biohacks I believe made the biggest difference. So whether you are trying to conceive right now, getting ready for IVF, coming back from a loss, or sitting there thinking, "I definitely want kids someday, just not yet," this conversation is for you. We are getting into the things I wish more women were told to think about before fertility becomes urgent, including a few that probably are not even on your radar yet. What's Discussed: (2:26) Why your chronological age is not the only age that matters for fertility. (5:17) My own fertility story and what I had been doing long before I was ready to conceive. (11:15) Why fertility is much more than simply whether or not you ovulate. (17:26) The difference between taking a prenatal and actually preparing your ovaries for conception. (27:55) The fertility biohack most women would never think to put on their preconception list. (31:08) Why some of the "healthy" habits women are following may actually work against fertility. (35:08) The overlooked nighttime factor that can change what happens hormonally in your next cycle. If becoming a mom is something you want now or someday, I do not want you waiting until you are actively trying to start thinking about your fertility. There is so much more to this conversation than age, and that is exactly what we are getting into in this episode.
