A Fertility Doctor Answers the Questions We’re All Secretly Googling: Egg Freezing, AMH, Egg Quality & More

#340: When should you actually start thinking about your fertility? What does your AMH really tell you? Does being healthy mean you have good egg quality? And what actually happens when you freeze your eggs? Josie sits down with Dr. Michelle Kappy of Spring Fertility to break down the questions so many women are secretly Googling, from what happens at your first fertility appointment to what egg freezing really looks and feels like. Dr. Kappy explains which fertility tests are actually useful (and what they can’t tell you), how age, birth control, PCOS, and endometriosis can factor into fertility, and the biggest misconceptions about egg freezing. Every woman deserves the chance to sit down with a compassionate fertility expert, ask every question on her mind, and actually understand her body and her options. Consider this episode that conversation.
