How does spotting affect fertility?

Fertility Rewire Podcast ·

2023/07/03

Hello and welcome to this episode of the Fertility Rewire podcast. Now, it's been a while. Again, I've taken a break. I've actually really, I've got quite a neck injury and I've been wearing a neck brace and have had the same sort of battle with my healthcare that I know you face a lot with your fertility, but you know, I've stuck with it. I've got to the route that I need to be taking now and things are improving massively. So I'm back doing everything that I was before. So you may have seen me on

It was a great pleasure to chat with Hoopsy Founder Lara Solomon in this episode where we discuss hope, support and saving the environment when trying to get pregnant. Hoopsy provide resources and information to those trying to conceive, as well as an eco friendly pregnancy test, made from99% paper (that doesn’t get wet) and is 99% accurate at a comparable cost to plastic single use tests. Lara talks about her realization about the amount of single use plastic used during her own IVF treatment

How to deal with the Holidays

2022/12/20

It can be a time of dread and fear cant it? Family gatherings, the questions you know you'll get asked. But what will you reply? Do you smile politely, still keeping this very personal subject to yourself, or do you let them have it: None of your business! Its a time for family, and the sense of loss can be huge, overwhelming even. I want to give a sense of hope this christmas. My wish for you is that you start to understand what could be affecting your fertility, that you have can put steps

Feeling lost when trying to get pregnant

Fertility Rewire Podcast ·

2022/12/09

Feeling lost is something I hear a lot from my clients and people i speak to about their fertility struggles. The thing about being lost is that we are often looking for the way out, but before we can truly do that we have to know where we are. I discuss how we can do that, how we need trusted sources and once we know where we are we can get help to get to where we need to go, or help to know where we need to be going next. I also announce the launch of the new Conceivable digital programme

Are you motivated to get pregnant?

Fertility Rewire Podcast ·

2022/10/20

It’s hard to stick to all the things that you are trying to improve your chances of getting pregnant, especially if you don’t really know why you are doing them or know if they are working. I was recently called out on this a bit with my own business. What was my motivation? Well my motivation was to of course get clients that I can help, and to educate and advocate for couples through my podcast. So why haven't recorded an episode for months? Well I've been poorly, my kids have been poorly,

The stress of Ovulation

Fertility Rewire Podcast ·

2022/07/22

Its a viscius circle, stress affects ovulation, ovulation affects stress. This is our focus isn't it when trying to get pregnant, we chart, we test, we plan and it can be a hugely stressful time. Particularly the longer you have been trying, or if you don't have a regular ovulation. In this episode I dig a little deeper, discuss the ovulation tigers, the What If's you may have and what you are doing to determine when you are ovulating. Transcript In this episode, I'm going to talk about the stress

The stress of monitoring ovulation

Fertility Rewire Podcast ·

2022/07/22

It's a viscous circle: stress affects ovulation, and as you no doubt no ovulations affects stress. As a result it can also impact other areas of your life. In this episode I discuss the stress of ovulation, why it impacts your fertility and what you can do about it. So there is potentially a lot, you don't know, but there is a lot you can know. So if you want to get more answers, if you want to get the answers or even find the right questions, so you can get the answers, then I can help with that

What you needed to know before trying to get pregnant

Fertility Rewire Podcast ·

2022/07/13

I ask you to imagine you could go back in time, what would you tell yourself at the point you decided to try to start or extend your family. What would have been useful and what do you wish you had been told. I also go into detail about what you should have been told and how my dream is that anyone who is thinking of starting or extending a family should be informed abut. In ancient times the elder women of the village would share key information, would have cultures in place including foods

When you’ll do anything to get pregnant (but not that)

Fertility Rewire Podcast ·

2022/06/30

I'm often reminded of the Meatloaf song. I'll do anything for love, but I won't do that. Will we do anything in blind faith and is that wise? What's actually needed is more thorough education of what we can do. And the first step is becoming your own fertility detective, in a controlled and structured way, often with support to interpret your findings. So what can you look into, well if you've heard me talk before, first off luteal phase and sperm, follicular phase, strength of ovulation and

Should you be happy with 1 child?

Fertility Rewire Podcast ·

2022/06/23

Do you feel you should be happy? Or are you made to feel that by society or specifically the fertility space on special media? I have had a few clients whose Dr has actually suggested that they should be happy with one. But having another child has such a huge emotional difference doesn’t it? It's not about having a child, it's about having a sibling, and guilt can be an overriding emotion in this and lack of community and support. I’m excited to share that I am launching a group programme for

Miscarriage: What should we be doing to help?

Fertility Rewire Podcast ·

2022/06/10

Experiencing a miscarriage is devastating, and when we do, we are not necessarily treated as we perhaps should be by the medical profession and society really. When faced with someone else’s grief and sadness, as humans we offer platitudes, or try to offer our own experience, perhaps as some sort of support? But it’s not helpful to hear always is it? Something needs to be done, but what? Do we need education about miscarriage, about dealing with someone else grief and how to support, how to

There could be more than 1 thing stopping you from...

Fertility Rewire Podcast ·

2022/05/26

When it comes to not getting pregnant, we want to know why, we want to know the cause. Even if you are given a cause, its important to know that it may not be the only factor affecting things. A blocked fallopian tube or tubes of course is a huge factor in preventing pregnancy but bypassing tis with IVF will not guarantee success because they may indeed be more than 1 thing, there could be multiple factors affecting fertility. 2 partners each with a number of things affecting perhaps.

Why your Fertility Tests may not be ‘Normal’

Fertility Rewire Podcast ·

2022/05/20

I discuss why your fertility tests may not be ‘normal’ after all. Have you been told that your results are ‘normal’? That there is nothing to be done? That your fertility issues are unexplained? What we have to realise first of all is that our medical model deals with ill health, that test results outside of the wide range represent ill health, but that those within it do not necessarily represent healthy. When trying to conceive you want to be at your healthiest surely? In this episode I discuss

How to survive the 2 week wait

Fertility Rewire Podcast ·

2022/05/06

In this episode I talk about the 2 week wait, which is generally the wait from ovulation to the end of your cycle or from embryo transfer to when you can do a pregnancy test. But before I even get into the general advice for how you can survive this I acknowledge the fact that you are pretty much waiting throughout your whole cycle, so 2 weeks is in itself a misnomer. In fact when you add up how long you've been trying, the wait so far could be months or years I also discuss how the 2 week wait

Well, hello, it's been a while hasn't hit? For those of you that have listened to this podcast from the very beginning, it's been quite a gap. I'm sure for those of us that have caught up later. It may still be a gap and for that, I apologise. What happened was I decided to take a break between season one and season two and that break was going to be about a month or maybe two months. That was April 2021. It was also around tht time that the UK was to some extent re opening. I was able to open

Analysing Fertility Hormones at Home

Fertility Rewire Podcast ·

2021/04/16

How fantastic would it be to be able to run laboratory tests to identify your hormone levels and give you accurate data on when you are ovulating? In the US, more testing and more often is available, here in the UK, not so much, and certainly not after initial investigations. Well you can, Sylvia Kang, CEO and co founder of the Mira Fertility tracker explains in this episode how Mira can support you. This marvellous hand held device is basically working to the same technology as laboratory

2021/03/22

What is ovulation pain telling you? You may have been told or read that Ovulation pain or mittelschmerz (German for Middle Pain) is normal, maybe even that it is a good sign for fertility. But actually it can be far from that. It can in some case ne an indication of something that may actually be negatively affecting your fertility. It could be a mild cramp, a dull ache, stabbing or even debilitating pain, which may last seconds, minutes or hours. If you are waiting for ovulation pain as a sign

What "should' you do when ttc?

Fertility Rewire Podcast ·

2021/03/05

The word should is one of the most powerful words we hear and what we say to ourselves. It can be a motivator but also a real barrier to change. When searching for what we should do, there is a risk of overwhelm, fear and also resentment. It's a word that can trigger deep held limiting beliefs, and can lead to a 'why should I?' The why "should I?" is so key in terms of our thoughts and emotions and can be one or many of your tigers. You've no doubt heard me talk about tigers before. In this
