The Egg Whisperer Show

Rapamycin is changing what's possible in fertility treatment, and in this episode, I'm breaking down exactly how. Originally discovered in the soil of Easter Island and long used by the longevity community to extend healthspan, rapamycin is now showing real promise for improving egg quality, increasing blastocyst formation rates, and helping women over 40 (even over 45) get pregnant. 
Joining me is Dr. Steve Palter, founder and medical and scientific director of Gold Coast IVF in Woodbury, New York.
We cover the science of how it works at the cellular level, the landmark placebo-controlled trial out of China that gave us published data for the first time, my own case series accepted to PCRS, and how I'm now using Rapamycin for egg freezing patients, not just last-resort IVF cases. We also get discuss the Vibrant Trial on ovarian aging, dosing protocols, and why resistance training and protein intake matter for fertility and longevity. 
In this episode, we cover:
• What rapamycin is, where it comes from, and why it's become the darling of the longevity world
• How rapamycin may improve egg quality by regulating protein synthesis and cellular repair in aging ovarian cells
• The landmark placebo-controlled trial out of China showing significantly higher pregnancy rates in poor-prognosis patients
• My own case series (including patients over 45 getting pregnant) accepted to PCRS
• Who is (and isn't) a good candidate, and how to have that conversation with your doctor
• Why dosing protocols are still evolving and what current regimens look like
• The underrated role of resistance training and protein intake for fertility, PCOS, and longevity

In this episode hosted by Anne Matthews, a fertility-focused acupuncturist from Energy Tree in Toronto, Canada, Anne discusses fertility issues with Dr. Aimee. Anne reveals how she became a fan of Dr. Aimee's holistic and patient-centric approach rooted in the TUSHY method, which stands for Testing: Tubes, Uterus, Sperm, Hormones, and Your genetics.
They delve into the inadequacies of common fertility treatments, the importance of comprehensive diagnostic tests, and the role of acupuncture. They also discuss the implications of factors such as polyps, DNA fragmentation in sperm, and the significance of quality embryo grading. Dr. Aimee emphasizes the importance of personalized patient care, thorough diagnoses, and being emotionally and physically prepared for pregnancy, reflecting on her own motivations for specializing in fertility treatments.
The conversation also covers the roles of psychological support, supplementation, and the evolving landscape of egg freezing and IVF.

When you're pregnant after IVF, you're likely beaming with joy while at the same time trying to keep negative, worrisome thoughts in check. 
If you're like so many of the fertility patients I see, then you may be hyper-aware of your body, emotions and sensitive to the what-ifs of pregnancy after fertility treatment. 
Now you're pregnant, and yes, you may have dreamed of this moment for quite some time. But it's okay not to love every second of being pregnant. You are not alone! 
And you do not have to manage these feelings by yourself or with the help of Google (In fact, please make a pact with me right now that you'll do your best to avoid Google).
Save yourself the heartache and talk to me, your OBGYN or tune into today's podcast episode where I'm sharing all about what to expect, and how to navigate the first few months of being pregnant after IVF.

Today on The Egg Whisperer Show podcast, I'm delighted to be joined by Dr. Dylan Cutler to talk about healing PCOS (now called PMOS) with lifestyle changes.
 
You guys, we just said "healing" PCOS / PMOS. We're not talking about treating, we're talking about healing and there's no better person to talk about this than Dr. Dylan. As a PCOS / PMOS Wellness Consultant, Dr. Cutler focuses her work on nutrition , lifestyle changes, and meditation. She encourages patients to add more stress management to their routine, to get exercise, and to get away from the diet culture mentality that so many people with PCOS / PMOS have been conditioned into. I hope you'll learn as much as I did from Dr. Dylan.
