Summary

Dr. Natalie Crawford gathered the best fertility questions you left on her voicemail in this special Q&A episode! There are often so many fertility questions that go unanswered and Natalie is here to be a trusted source for your questions and concerns regarding fertility. Questions answered: What are the IVF success rates without removing hydrosylpinx? My partner's semen analysis says 0% motility and low sperm counts. Has anyone been able to increase scores enough to do IUI? Does embryo grading matter if you are doing PGT-A testing? Is there testing to determine if inflammation played a role in recurrent pregnancy loss? What role do autoimmune disorders play in fertility? Is silicon something you should stay away from using, similar to plastics? What are your thoughts on the advice to eat red meat if you’re anemic?
