Optimize Your Body for Fertility with Dr. Joy Sturgill (205)
Description
When trying to get pregnant, we can focus only on nutrition or what’s wrong with our body. And often, Western Medicine’s fertility metrics — whether discouraging or “normal”— aren’t the whole picture we need to pay attention to.
Dr. Joy, a naturopathic physician who helped Ali overcome her infertility diagnosis, shares with us:
- The difference between functional medicine and naturopathy when it comes to fertility and overall health (including a mindset shift to improve your fertility and the health of you and your baby).
- Common root causes that make conceiving and staying pregnant difficult even with normal fertility numbers because Western Medicine doesn’t know to test for these issues
- How you can incorporate natural medicine and fertility assistance like IUI and IVF to maximize your fertility and the health of your baby
