  • What to do When Your Frozen Embryo Transfer Fails with Dr. Meivys Garcia

    What to do When Your Frozen Embryo Transfer Fails with Dr. Meivys Garcia
    2025/06/06
    Dr. Meivys Garcia is joining me on the podcast today! She is an amazing Canadian fertility doctor, and she's guiding us through her approach to fertility care when a frozen embryo transfer doesn’t work. She will describe every step, one at a time. We will also get personal. Knowing the heartbreak of having failed embryo transfers during her own fertility journey, Dr. Garcia knows all too well what it is like to be a fertility patient.

    She’s going to share her journey and share her wisdom based on her experience as a patient and as a fertility expert.

    I’m going to be honest and open about this; one of the hardest parts of walking the fertility journey with patients is when we have loss. Whether that be the loss of a pregnancy or the loss of a frozen embryo, it’s heart wrenching for me, and for the patient.

    Today’s podcast episode will be about holding space for loss, and how to move on when you’ve had difficult news. It’s about what you can learn from the unfortunate events. It’s also about the hope and courage it takes to be a fertility patient, and the admiration that Dr. Garcia and I have for every patient we’ve worked with.

  • Top 5 Fertility Trends and Products for Your Fertility Journey with Sara Jensen of Hugh and Grace

    Top 5 Fertility Trends and Products for Your Fertility Journey with Sara Jensen of Hugh and Grace
    2025/06/05
    This interview was originally hosted by Sara Jensen of Hugh & Grace. We are diving into the Top 5 Fertility Trends I’ve seen over the past few years. We are also talking about the importance of being mindful of the products that you use and the role of toxins in our environment on infertility. I love that Sara is so dedicated to promoting holistic hormonal health and that she is as passionate about her mission at Hugh & Grace as I am about helping anyone who wants to bring more love into the world.

    You know that my goal is to empower people to understand their fertility diagnosis, explore treatment options, and help people avoid those heartbreaking moments where they say “I wish I would have known this sooner.” Together, Sara and I are on a mission to spread love and knowledge far and wide.

    Let's dive into the top five fertility trends that are shaping the landscape:

    1. Openness & Sharing: More and more individuals are bravely sharing their fertility journeys with loved ones, fostering a supportive community of understanding and empathy.

    2. Egg Freezing: Egg freezing isn't solely about finding the perfect partner anymore—it's about taking charge of your fertility journey, regardless of relationship status.

    3. IVF Beyond Infertility: IVF is no longer reserved solely for those facing infertility; it's become a powerful tool for preserving fertility and empowering individuals and couples alike.

    4. Delayed Parenthood: With life's milestones taking precedence, many are embarking on their parenthood journey later in life, prioritizing education, career, and financial stability.

    5. Surrogacy Spotlight: Surrogacy is gaining traction, especially among women over 45 who are determined to expand their families.

    Sara's genuine passion for holistic wellness and her understanding of how the products we use every day can impact your fertility shines through in everything she does. I love that Hugh & Grace has created fertility friendly products for skin, health, and home. AND, I’m super excited that they’ve just released a Glow and Grow Set that offers a great introduction to their best fertility supporting products.

  • New Treatments for Recurrent Implantation Failure with guest Dr. Jenna Turocy

    New Treatments for Recurrent Implantation Failure with guest Dr. Jenna Turocy
    2025/06/04
    In this episode of The Egg Whisperer Show, Dr. Jenna Turocy is joining me to talk about new treatment options for recurrent implantation failure. Recurrent implantation failure (RIF) is determined when embryos of good quality fail to implant following several in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment cycles. The good news is that there is treatment for this, and Dr. Turocy has been researching it.

    The types of treatments that Dr. Jenna has studied include:
    💙 intrauterine administration of peripheral blood mononuclear cells ahead of embryo transfer (which helps the uterus accept the embryo)
    💙 intrauterine platelet rich plasma before embryo transfer (which helps the tissue of the uterus grow and rejuvenate)
    💙 subcutaneous granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (which treats a thin endometrium)

    You all know that I love sharing the latest in technology, especially when it can help fertility patients get and stay pregnant.

    Thank you, Jenna, for joining me and sharing these novel treatments for RIF.

    Thank you for joining me, Jenna!

  • Everything You Need to Know Before Picking an Egg Donor

    Everything You Need to Know Before Picking an Egg Donor
    2025/06/03
    Whether you’re an egg donor now, if you’re considering it, or you know someone that is — I’m glad you’re here.

    Young women are donating eggs at the time they are most fertile, often times not realizing the implications of what that means. I’ve had patients come to me in their 40s without enough healthy eggs of their own to conceive. When they share with me that they themselves donated their young and healthy eggs in their 20s or 30s, but that none are available for them, I feel frustrated and sad for them.

    Frustrated enough that I’m doing something about it. Freeze & Share is a program that helps young egg donors save some eggs for themselves should they need them, while helping another family conceive when they can’t on their own.

    Suffice to say, I don’t want anyone to look back at their egg donation and wish they’d known more.

    Here is your chance — I want to give you all the information I have so that you’re equipped with the knowledge to make the best decision for your personal situation.

  • Your First Trimester After IVF Now What

    Your First Trimester After IVF Now What
    2025/06/02
    When you're pregnant after IVF, you’re likely beaming with joy while at the same time trying to keep negative, worrisome thoughts in check.

    If you’re like so many of the fertility patients I see, then you may be hyper-aware of your body, emotions and sensitive to the what-ifs of pregnancy after fertility treatment.

    Now you’re pregnant, and yes, you may have dreamed of this moment for quite some time. But it’s okay not to love every second of being pregnant. You are not alone!

    And you do not have to manage these feelings by yourself or with the help of Google (In fact, please make a pact with me right now that you’ll do your best to avoid Google).

    Save yourself the heartache and talk to me, your OBGYN or tune into today's podcast episode where I'm sharing all about what to expect, and how to navigate the first few months of being pregnant after IVF.

  • What to Expect Before and When You Are Expecting with guest Heidi Murkoff

    What to Expect Before and When You Are Expecting with guest Heidi Murkoff
    2025/05/29
    You likely already know Heidi Murkoff - she is the author of the internationally bestselling What to Expect series of pregnancy and parenting guides, which includes What to Expect When You’re Expecting. (And knowing how beloved this book is, it probably comes as no surprise that this popular book has sold over 40 million copies in 42 languages). It goes without saying that I am beyond honored to have her join me today as the guest on The Egg Whisperer Show.

    In this conversation, we're talking about what inspired Heidi to write the first What to Expect When You're Expecting, her community of 20 million moms, the non profit she founded that helps at-risk moms, and what's changed since the book first came out 25 years ago.

    Time magazine named Heidi one of the 100 Most Influential People in the World for 2011, and she and her husband Erik have received numerous awards for their humanitarian work, including, in June of 2022, the highest award given to civilians by the department of defense, the Fisher Distinguished Civilian Humanitarian award.

    Thank you for joining me, Heidi!

  • 7 Things About the Trigger Shot You Didn't Know

    7 Things About the Trigger Shot You Didn't Know
    2025/05/28
    Get the full show notes: https://www.draimee.org/the-7-things-you-didnt-know-about-the-trigger-shot I often tell my patients that we should rename the Trigger Shot, the super unicorn sparkle shot, the egg launcher shot, or the EGG-cellerator shot. Let's be honest, the Trigger Shot is the worst name for something that does so much good on a fertility journey.⠀

    In this episode, I'm sharing all about The Trigger Shot, and giving you the 7 things you need to know about it. Should you test for ovulation afterwards, and if so, when? Do you have to have a Trigger Shot? Can you administer it at home, or does it need to be in a doctor's office? When should you check for pregnancy after the shot to make sure it isn’t in your system anymore?⠀
