"We've tried everything." It is one of the most heartbreaking sentences heard in fertility care — and almost always, it is not true. Not because couples have not worked hard or followed every recommendation, but because everything in conventional fertility care is often a surprisingly short list. And a landmark study published this year confirms just how short that list actually is.
In this episode of Cycle Wisdom, Dr. Monica Minjeur walks through what the standard fertility workup is consistently missing — and what finding those answers can change. Through Vivian and Robert's story, a couple who went through two IUIs and a failed IVF transfer and were told everything looked fine, you will see how a complete evaluation revealed multiple identifiable and treatable causes — and how they conceived naturally eight months later without another IVF cycle.
You will learn:
What a landmark 2025 study co-authored by Dr. Minjeur found about how often guideline-recommended diagnostics are actually completed before IVF begins — and why the findings are staggering
The four most common missed findings in standard fertility evaluations — poor ovulation quality, subtle thyroid dysfunction, adrenal insufficiency, and chronic endometritis
Why "your labs are normal" is not the same as "everything is functioning optimally" — and what the distinction means for your next step
If you have been told you have unexplained infertility or that IVF is your only remaining option — this episode is for you. Learn more or schedule a free discovery call at radiantclinic.com.
