Welcome to as a woman, fertility hormones and beyond. I'm your host, Dr. Natalie Crawford,

and I am a board certified OBGYN and fertility physician and also co-founder of Fora fertility in Austin, Texas.

Each week on this podcast, I discuss health and fertility

you can learn more about your body health, fertility, hormones, you can live a healthier life. It'll help you

get pregnant easier. But really, my honest goal is sir, you to be the one with the knowledge you need

some of your fertility questions. And these questions can be asked on

Instagram at Natalie Crawford-MD every Monday. So put your question there. Some will be answered
