I had babies at 44 and 46. So does your age really predict your egg quality?

Age matters. But it’s only one piece of the puzzle.

There are many factors that influence egg health that you can actively work on.

Here are some of the areas I focus on when supporting egg quality 👇

✨ Balanced blood sugar — blood sugar dysregulation can increase oxidative stress and inflammation, which can affect the cellular environment surrounding your eggs.

✨ Lower inflammation + oxidative stress — both can contribute to cellular damage, including damage to egg DNA and mitochondria.

✨ Healthy mitochondrial function — your eggs need substantial energy to mature and support early embryo development.

✨ Optimal nutrient status — eggs need key nutrients to support energy production, DNA synthesis, and cellular function.

✨ Healthy thyroid + hormonal health — hormones play an important role in follicle development, ovulation, and egg maturation.

✨ Gut + vaginal microbiome health

✨ Lower toxin exposure

✨ Nervous system regulation

✨ Quality sleep + recovery

✨ Targeted supplementation

Why this matters:

You can’t change your chronological age. But you can influence many of the factors that affect the environment in which your eggs develop.

There is so much more to the story than your age. ✨

His semen analysis is “normal.”

But is it actually optimal for fertility?

A standard semen analysis only tells you part of the story.

A result can fall within the “normal” range and still be far from optimal.

That’s why I look beyond simply meeting the minimum and pay attention to markers such as:

• DNA fragmentation
• White blood cells
• Debris
• pH
• Liquefaction time
• Agglutination (clumping)

These can provide important clues about inflammation, oxidative stress, infection, and overall s***m health.

The goal isn’t just “normal.”
The goal is optimal fertility.

And the good news? S***m health is one of the more modifiable parts of fertility.

With the right nutrition, targeted supplements, lifestyle changes, and by addressing underlying issues, s***m health can improve over the course of a few months.

💛 If you’re trying to conceive, don’t just optimize her fertility. Optimize his, too.

Think you ovulated? But how do you REALLY know?

An LH surge does not confirm ovulation. It tells you that your body is attempting to ovulate. To actually confirm ovulation, you need to look for what happens after the LH surge.

Here are 3 ways to confirm it:

✨ 1. Basal Body Temperature (BBT)
Your resting temperature typically rises after ovulation as progesterone increases. Track your BBT daily, before getting out of bed, and look for a sustained temperature shift.

A wearable like Tempdrop can make this much more convenient, especially if you wake frequently or have inconsistent sleep.

✨ 2. Progesterone Blood Test
About 6–8 days after ovulation, a blood test can measure progesterone during the mid-luteal phase.
* >5 ng/mL = ovulation likely occurred
* Aim for >20 ng/mL = a more reassuring level for supporting the uterine lining, implantation, and early pregnancy

✨ 3. At-Home PdG Testing
Fertility monitors such as Mira, Proov, and Inito measure PdG, a urine metabolite of progesterone. A sustained rise in PdG after ovulation can help confirm that ovulation occurred.

Stop guessing.
Start working with your data. 🔬

I heard it over and over: It’s not possible.

A fertility acupuncturist even laughed and told me to buy a lottery ticket. She said having a naturally-conceived baby at 44 meant I got lucky, and at 46 it wouldn’t happen without a donor.

I chose not to borrow her limiting belief.

I said, watch me.

I had already decided not to let someone else’s limiting beliefs become my reality.

For every study that says it’s virtually impossible, there’s another showing what’s possible with the right foundations.

You get to choose what you focus on.

And now, I see it every day, including women in their late 40s conceiving:

• Bodies respond to safety

• Hormones respond to nourishment

• Eggs respond to reduced inflammation and oxidative stress

• The nervous system responds to belief

Someone else’s limiting belief does not get to decide your future.

Not a statistic.
Not a diagnosis.
Not an offhand comment.

Keep reminding your body what’s possible.

Your nervous system is always listening.

I had my first baby at 44.

I wasn’t ready to become a mom before 40. I wanted to live a full life and become the person I wanted to be so I could be the best mom I could be.

And yes, getting pregnant in our 40s can be harder. Age matters. I’ll never tell you otherwise.

But I also don’t believe we are powerless because of our age.

There is so much we can influence: our nutrition, sleep, environment, metabolic health, nutrient status, hormones, microbiome, and the health of both partners.

These factors significantly impact our fertility. We have more control than we’ve been led to believe.

There’s no perfect timeline. There’s your timeline ❤️

Did you know that even in your mid-40s, 45% of your eggs can still be healthy.

Yes, egg quality changes with age, but it’s not a sudden drop-off! And the best part: you have the power to influence it!

THE REALITY:

✨ 40+: Studies show ~45-55% of eggs are normal.
✨ 44+: ~35-45% are still healthy and normal.
✨ The Key: Outcomes are most linked to pre-existing maternal health.

🥗 Lifestyle Makes a Difference

* Fertility-friendly diet
* Evidence-based supplements
* Reducing environmental toxins
* Appropriate exercise

⏳ Patience & Persistence

In your 40s, conception may take longer due to egg health, but successful outcomes are still very achievable.

🧬 IVF Considerations

High-dose IVF medications can sometimes negatively affect egg quality. Natural conception or lower-stimulation protocols may offer better results in certain cases.

🔑 The Key?

Reduce oxidative stress & inflammation.

Research suggests the best outcomes are closely linked to pre-existing maternal health.

Focus on building a healthy foundation for your fertility journey!

Your menstrual cycle is a powerful window into your hormonal health. A healthy menstrual cycle is one sign that your hormones are functioning well and can provide helpful clues about your fertility.

5 Signs of a Healthy Cycle:

✅ Cycle Length: 26-32 days with minimal variation.
✅ Bleeding: 3-6 days of vibrant red blood (
✅ Cervical Mucus: Clear, stretchy, and slippery around ovulation = your fertile window! Ideally, you have this for 3+ days.
✅ Luteal Phase: 11+ days (post-ovulation to period).
✅ Minimal PMS: Little to no cramping, mood swings, or back pain.

How to Improve Cycle Health:

The good news? You can influence your cycle even in your 40s through lifestyle. Nourishing foods, reducing toxins, proper movement, restful sleep, stress management, and targeted supplementation all support hormone balance and a healthier menstrual cycle.

If your cycle doesn’t look like this, your body is communicating something. And in many cases, there are underlying factors you can address.

Most of my clients come to me after being told, “Everything looks normal. It’s just your age.”

In the past week alone, these are just some of the issues we’ve uncovered in my clients after looking deeper.

✔️ Poor T3 conversion despite a normal TSH
✔️ Gut dysbiosis with no digestive symptoms
✔️ Chronic endometritis missed on routine fertility testing
✔️ Suboptimal vitamin D within the lab “normal” reference range
✔️ Suboptimal zinc despite taking a prenatal
✔️ Iron deficiency despite normal hemoglobin
✔️ Elevated homocysteine
✔️ Very low leptin despite a healthy BMI
✔️ Vaginal dysbiosis despite no obvious symptoms
✔️ Low progesterone despite regular cycles
✔️ Mercury toxicity from everyday exposures
✔️ Extremely elevated calprotectin despite minimal digestive symptoms
✔️ Blood sugar dysregulation despite a normal fasting glucose
✔️ Signs of infection or inflammation on a semen analysis
✔️ Elevated s***m DNA fragmentation despite a “normal” semen analysis
✔️ Selenium excess from over-supplementation

When you’ve been told everything looks normal and it’s “just your age,” that’s your sign to dig deeper.

Want to improve your chances of getting pregnant faster after 40?

These are the first changes I recommend before your next IVF cycle or fertility treatment.

1️⃣ Investigate root causes instead of guessing.

2️⃣ Test your gut and vaginal microbiome.

3️⃣ Eat at least 100 grams of protein every day.

4️⃣ Reduce your exposure to plastics and other endocrine-disrupting chemicals.

5️⃣ Don’t fear cholesterol. Healthy fats, including grass-fed butter and grass-fed beef, provide the building blocks your body needs to produce reproductive hormones.

6️⃣ Build a personalized supplement plan based on your needs.

7️⃣ Switch to fragrance-free personal care and cleaning products.

8️⃣ Get outside for a daily walk to support blood sugar balance, circulation, and stress resilience.
