The Truth About Your Biological Clock: Top Fertility Doctor Shares How to Take Action

Dec 21

#323: Nothing is more impactful to our ability as women to create our own luck than the journey of motherhood—how we embark on it, and when. That's why I sat down with Dr. Catha Fischer, reproductive endocrinologist and Medical Director at Spring Fertility, for this critical bonus episode to demystify reproductive health, fertility, and the power of reproductive autonomy.

We dive into what every woman in her 20s and 30s needs to know, from understanding your menstrual cycle (which Dr. Fischer calls your "fifth vital sign") to the truth about how birth control impacts your fertility, and what egg freezing actually entails. This is an honest, judgment-free conversation about removing the shame around fertility and making informed, empowered choices for your future.

This episode is for you if:

You want to understand your reproductive options regardless of your relationship status.
You're on hormonal birth control and are curious about what's really happening with your natural menstrual cycle.
You've been frustrated by the shame and secrecy surrounding fertility struggles or feel like you're "running out of time."
You want a factual breakdown of the egg freezing process, including pricing, and outcome data.
You're having a hard time getting your questions about reproductive health answered and are seeking patient-centered care.
