The Egg Whisperer Show

Imagine an insemination kit with a syringe specifically designed for the female body that you can use with your partner or sperm donor in the comfort of your own home. I'm delighted to have Maureen Brown, co-founder of Mosie Baby joining me on the this week to talk about the home insemination kit that she and her husband designed after being faced with infertility.⠀⠀
⠀⠀
As you know, I really love innovative products and ideas that help people reach their goals. Anything that helps demystify fertility and helps women get pregnant is a win in my book. What I love about the Mosie Baby story is that Maureen and her husband decided to create a product that they could not find and wished existed during their fertility journey. We talk about how the kit was invented, her own experience using it, how it works, and about some of her favorite success stories.

I've yet to meet someone that dreamed of the day they could become my patient.
You may dream of your wedding day. Or maybe you may fantasize about your next vacation destination, or the day you buy a house or seeing your future child graduate from high school. But I'm guessing that when you think of those milestones in life, my bet is that nowhere in that world are you thinking about me — a fertility doctor? 
It's just not happening.


And here's the thing: while I love my patients and have been known to tell a good joke or two, it's my honest hope that I never have to meet you.


That's because deep down, I want to PREVENT infertility. My job as a doctor is to do my best to ensure I educate you enough that many of you will never need to visit me.


Of course, many of you may become my patients, and I truly do love the work I get to do.


Today on the podcast, I'm making the bold move to outline how you can go about not becoming my patient. If you follow Patagonia clothing company, it's sort of like how they have ads that say, "Don't Buy This Shirt."

They are a company that's about sustainability. They don't want you to buy another shirt. Well, I guess I'm the Patagonia of fertility medicine. I don't want you to need my services.

I know there are a lot of fertility myths out there, and some can be downright perplexing if you're trying to do everything you can to have a successful pregnancy. And, when you've been a fertility doctor for a while, let me tell you, you will hear it all.⁠
⁠
So in this episode, I'm tackling TWENTY of the most common fertility myths in a little thing I like to call "Fertility: Fact or Fiction."⁠
⁠
I love talking about these types of things because once you know the truth, you also have a better idea of what may be happening in your own body. I think most people now realize that sperm does in fact matter when you're TTC.⁠
⁠
But, do you need both of your fallopian tubes?⁠
⁠
Is marijuana safe when you're TTC?⁠
⁠
Can someone born without a uterus have a uterine transplant?⁠
⁠
Is an ovarian cyst something to be concerned about?⁠
⁠
Of course, these questions matter, and I want everyone to feel comfortable asking their doctor about them (and for answers to the above: no, no, yes, no).⁠

Most fertility treatment hinges on the strategic use of drugs to help the body be as fertile as possible. My goal is to give each of my patients a personalized fertility plan with custom calendars of what to do, which drug to take, and when.


Today on the podcast, I'm walking through fertility calendars (keeping things confidential, of course) and talking about the drugs I commonly use to give my patients the best chance at fertility success.

In this episode of The Egg Whisperer Show, I am joined by Sherri McDonald Sawyerr - IVF mom, content creator, and author of the children's book Love Grew Me - for a real, unfiltered conversation about donor egg conception. Sherri shares her multi-year fertility journey, from early IVF attempts with her own eggs to ultimately finding success with donor eggs after discovering she had adenomyosis, and how she navigated the process as a Black woman in her forties.

We go beyond the medical decision and explore the emotional terrain that so many women face but rarely talk about openly - the grief, the relief, the joy, and the identity questions that come with donor conception. Sherri also shares why she started telling her daughter her conception story from day one, what led her to write a children's book about it, and how she's using her platform to normalize donor egg IVF in communities where the conversation is often taboo.

In this episode, we cover:

The emotional rollercoaster of transitioning from using your own eggs to choosing a donor and how to process those feelings before moving forward
How to choose an egg donor, including why you should stop looking for your "twin" and what actually matters
The unique challenges Black women face when navigating fertility treatment and finding donors who reflect their identity
Why telling your child about their donor conception story early is so important  and how to do it with love and confidence
How adenomyosis went undiagnosed for years and how treating it finally led to a successful transfer
Protecting your postpartum bubble and deciding when (and how) to share your donor conception story with family
How Sherri found the courage to go public and write Love Groom Me to fill a representation gap in donor conception literature
