139. Trimester Zero: How Men's Health Impacts Fertility, Pregnancy, and Baby's Future with Ronit Menashe

Dela

When it comes to fertility, pregnancy preparation, and healthy pregnancies, the conversation almost always centers around women. But what if we're overlooking half of the equation?

In this eye-opening episode, Brooke sits down with Ronit Menashe, co-founder of WeNatal, to discuss the concept of Trimester Zero—the critical months before conception when both partners have the opportunity to optimize their health and improve pregnancy outcomes.

Ronit shares why male fertility matters just as much as female fertility, how sperm health influences everything from conception rates to placental development and pregnancy complications, and why declining sperm counts have become a growing public health concern. Together, they explore the environmental, nutritional, and lifestyle factors contributing to today's fertility challenges and, most importantly, what couples can do to take action.

You'll learn why sperm quality goes far beyond sperm count, how lifestyle changes can dramatically improve fertility in as little as 72 days, and why supporting men's health before pregnancy may positively impact a child's lifelong health.

Whether you're actively trying to conceive, planning for a future pregnancy, or simply want to understand the science behind fertility, this episode will completely change the way you think about preconception health.
